Breaking: American Majority supports impeachment


There's an interesting poster one can acquire these days: "Can't someone just give him a blowjob so we can impeach him?"

I do apologize for the disturbing mental imagery.

ImpeachPAC.org - launched by a friend of this household, Bob Fertik of Democrats.com - notes that the newest Zogby poll shows a majority of Americans - 53% to 42% - want Dear Leader's ass impeached if (if!) he lied about the reasons for going to war.
Responses to the Zogby poll varied by political party affiliation: 76% of Democrats favored impeachment, compared to 50% of Independents and 29% of Republicans.

Responses also varied by age, sex, race, and religion. 70% of those 18-29 favored impeachment, 51% of those 31-49, 50% of those 50-64, and 42% of those over 65. 56% of women favored impeachment, compared to 49% of men. Among African Americans, 90% favored impeachment, compared to 67% of Hispanics, and 46% of whites. Majorities of Catholics, Jews, Muslims, and Others favored impeachment, while 49% of Protestants and 46% of Born Again Christians did so.

Majorities favored impeachment in the East (53%), West (56%), and Central states (58%), but not the South (43%). In large cities, 58% support impeachment; in small cities, 56%; in suburbs, 49%; in rural areas, 46%.

So it's not just the case that Americans hate Bush - we do - but that we, as a nation, want him gone. That should make the 2006 elections rather interesting; provided, of course, that the Democrats actually grow some balls.
