He was more polite to them than I'd be
I think I'm about the last person on earth who saw this, but if I'm wrong about that in your case, take 10 minutes and check out MSNBC's Keith Olbermann in an exquisite rant against Bush and Cheney. In the end, he calls for them to resign.
I'm so jaded -- I can't take it seriously. I don't know whether to laugh or cry, but sadly, I'm finding it much too late to hope. God help America.

Wow, harsh, but valid critcism of Bush and Cheney. Olberman implores dual resignation in the name of public reassurance in the dignity of the office. Truly a courageous journalist. If there is a Thomas Payne award, he has my support. That was some great theater. Thanks for the heads up.

Yeah, thanks. I don't ordinarily watch MSNBC.
We can take hope, I think, that by the time I watched the clip tonight, nearly 108,000 others just on Youtube did too. A lot of people care deeply about this country, and what is happening to it.

"Which is the ventriloquist, and which the dummy, is irrelevant."
Here's a link to the text version for all those out there who can't watch video while they're at work. (ahem)

Olbermann is the only reason I follow MSNBC. A well spoken and very intelligent guy who speaks out loud and often against the jokes we have running this country. We need somebody with political power to act on the issues Olbermann rails on...that'll be the day.

Why stop at the Pres and VP jointly resigning? I think that those Five conservative Robe Wearers should also step down (but only after we have a real Pres and VP in place to nominate some real Supreme Court Justices to replace the dreaded conservatives). But since the Senate has to confirm these nominations, we need to look at that body as well. I think that we need another mass resignation of all the conservatives there also.
Nothing short of a clean sweep is needed in all three branches of the federal government. Throw all the bad guys out, and replace them with the good guys.
After all, it worked well for the Soviets for at least 70 years! It would have gone on another 70 years, except for the original chimp, Ronnie Raygun, got in the way.
