[And not only impeachment of Bush -- besides the obvious
co-conspirators like Cheney, the members of the US House and Senate who
insist on taking impeachment "off the table" should also be
impeached.- NYTransfer]

Bush's Wiretaps: Impeachment not Immunity
This week Joseph Nacchio, the former CEO of Qwest, revealed the Bush
Administration started muscling telephone companies to wiretap American
citizens without a warrant on Feb. 27, 2001. When Qwest refused, they
were cut out of government contracts and Nacchio was prosecuted for
insider trading.
So we now know Bush began violating FISA and the 4th Amendment just 1
month after stealing the White House. And since the 9/11 attack was 7
months later, Bush has lied about 9/11 being the justification for
warrantless wiretapping for the past two years. Yet Democrats in
Congress still don't get it.
Together we have sent 69,153 emails to Congress calling for
impeachment, not immunity. But Democrats are still trying to expand
Bush's wiretapping power, even though Bush has all the power he needs -
or should ever get - under the FISA law.
There is nothing in the Protect Wiretappers Act that should be renewed
when it expires in February. It's time for Democrats to Just Say No to
Bush on warrantless wiretapping, and to impeach him for the illegal
wiretapping he began on 2/27/01.
