Nader Wants Bush and Cheney Held Accountable

Posted by Isaac Fitzgerald, AlterNet at 10:00 AM on June 17, 2008.


Nader talks about back-room contracting and gives some damn good reasons to show Bush and Dick the door.

Presidential Candidate (I) Ralph Nader, positioned with a crowd of supporters in front of the White House, called out Bush for "contracting out the U.S. government to corporations." Nader tied corporate accountability and government accountability, saying that in Bush's seven years he has "dishonored the White House, and brought to the White House a pattern of criminality, insensitivity and waste unparalleled in American presidential history."

Congressman Kucinich also called for impeachment, giving us hope that, for at least these politicians, demanding justice is on the agenda.

Digg!

Nader is on the correct side of history being made, of course. But it makes me angry that Nader and Kucinich calling for impeachment will only help cement their place in politics as insignificant loons.
No "serious" politician wants impeachment. Duh.

Mr. Nader I am glad you are calling for Impeachment, yet I never heard mention of Troop deaths,....

...Iraqi murders, Torture, Kidnapping, Illegally invading a Sovereign Nation based on LIES by Mr. Bush, illegally spying on US citizens pre-911, Egregious Redaction of the Constitution, Abu Ghraib, GITMO, Suicide by PTSD or any human trait that should be foremost in Mr. Naders Mind.
No, QQOblivian Dennis is not a lunatic, he is a humane, honest defender of the Constitution and We the People.

Ralph, If the world is actually influenced by a supreme being, you will be the next Attorney General. It would be a pleasure to watch all the corporate rats run for the shadows, and you with a big hammer and spotlight.

My mother had deep respect for Nader and so do I. We respect the way he fights for the truth and the "little" people of America. "little" meaning everyone that's not a millionaire.
