CAFFERTY: Eighty-five-year-old George McGovern, who ran for President in 1972, wrote a piece in the Washington Post over the weekend suggesting that George Bush and Vice President Cheney are more deserving of impeachment than Richard Nixon was. And so we asked: Why won’t Congress impeach President Bush and Vice President Dick Cheney? And we got the following. Chris in Ithaca writes: “The Democratic Congress will not move on impeachment because we have nothing but cowards in Washington. The Congress changed because the American people wanted change. Instead, we’ve gotten Republican light. There is no change in Washington — only slaves to big business, oil and imperialism. Washington stinks.” Eric in Moss Beach, California: “The collaborators who gave Bush everything they wanted won’t condemn themselves now by impeaching him. They have no principles. They have no morals. They are politicians to their slimy cores. They all deserve defeat in the next election — Democrat, Republican — makes no difference. They have betrayed their oath, they have betrayed their country. They are scum.” Scott: “Why won’t we impeach Bush and Cheney? Because the country is over, that’s why. We’re done. The crooks, the special interests and the corporations have won.” Dell in Colorado Springs: “The Democratic Congress won’t impeach the President or Vice President simply because they’re more concerned with winning back the White House. It would be too timely, too costly. Bush has destroyed our reputation abroad, done nothing domestically. The Democrats believe the damage is done and the administration will ultimately go into the books as one of the worst in history.” Roy writes: “It’s not going to happen. Everybody knows you need corporate sponsors to get anything done in Washington.” And Sally in Alexandria, Virginia: “Because all they did was cause death, destruction, torture, defiling of the Constitution and decimation of the nation’s finances. Thank goodness they didn’t have sex with an intern.” WOLF BLITZER: A lot of angry people out there, Jack. CAFFERTY: I guarantee, and I hear from them every single day. And I think that’s one of the reasons, quite frankly, that there’s so much interest in a guy like Barack Obama. The country is saying, “How much worse can it be? Give me anything that’s different, something fresh and new.”
