Let's Be Honest Once And For All

I hate to be less than positive, but I have long considered the US to be the very way you hope it isn't.

Our entire history from the beginning has been the same way as it is now, except no President has done the job as badly in terms of both national resources and national prestige as this one has.

However it is also important to remember that up to this point in history, the US has also done and represented much good as well.

I think the best possible light on the impeachment question is that Pellosi honestly believed the Democrats would not win the '06 elections unless she took impeachment off the table.

i bet if we were citizens of almost any other nation, it would be obvious to us that we ARE that empire that we pretend not to be.
