Nazis threaten violence over impeachment vote

If you meet a Bush conservative, ask them why they support threats of violence against public officials and private citizens. If they ignore you, ask them again. If they walk away, follow them. If they deny they support it, have a printout of the rest of this entry handy, and shove it in their ugly face. Keep confronting the Nazi until you get a coherent answer. (Good luck with that!)

The city of Boulder, Colorado, debated a resolution calling for the impeachment of Bush and Cheney. Immediately, child molesters bombarded the city with threats of violence. City officials received threatening e-mails from regime supporters. One of them said City Council "would make a fine target for a firing squad."

Most locals supported the impeachment resolution, but the City Council chose not to draft the measure, after being bullied by threats from the Nazis.

Real Americans don't threaten public officials over something like this. Anyone who supports these threats isn't fit to be called an American, and should leave the country. I truly believe there should be a law to revoke citizenship privileges of anyone who makes threats like this.

The bullying by private terrorists isn't the only coercion involved though. Boulder's mayor points out that there might be political concerns about the city backing an impeachment resolution, because "there are people who will be very strongly opposed to it who also get to vote on things like our appropriations." What that really means is that right-wing members of Congress might punish the city for its politics if it supports impeachment. (Jim DeMint would like that!)

Cities often send resolutions to Congress for items of varying degrees of importance. Congressional rules allow municipal resolutions to be accepted. Impeachment is a matter of urgency that all American cities must take up.

Now that Boulder has been cajoled into dropping its impeachment proposal, the terrorists really have won. The terrorists are the scuzzy fucks who sent the threatening e-mails.

  1. Tim,

    By some estimates, the futile impeachment proceedings against President Clinton cost the taxpayers more than $80 million.

    Impeaching Bush would probably cost at least as much and it would be equally futile. As in Clinton's case, there's no chance a two-thirds majority in the Senate will vote to remove Bush from office. It would be nothing more than a political move and a big waste of time and money. I know wasting taxpayers' money isn't a big deal to you because you don't have to pay taxes, but you should care.

  3. I'm glad you said that, mam, because all day I've heard quiet little music and I couldn't tell where exactly it was coming from. I banged on my neighbor's door askin him to please turn the music down but he said I was crazy and he wasn't playing any music. Said he'd knock me over the head with a beer bottle if ever banged on his door like that again at 5 o'clock in the morning. Didn't think to check the Online Lunchpail. I've had it up on my computer all day like we all do, but never in my wildest dreams did I imagine it could be a little tiny violin playing for scheffbd!
