In a recent PBS radio interview Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid scoffed and demeaned the idea of impeaching George W. Bush and Dick Cheney. The whole process appeared so ludicrous to him that at one point he appeared ready to terminate the interview if the subject did not promptly change.
Recent disclosures by former White House Press Secretary Scott McClellan prior to the release of his book “What Happened” that he was misled when he sought to exonerate Karl Rove and Lewis ”Scooter” Libby from involvement in the outing of CIA officer Valerie Plame, an expert in the field of nuclear weapons investigation, underscores the need for further investigation into Bush Administration activities.
“I had unknowingly passed along false information. And five of the highest ranking officials in the administration were involved in my doing so: Rove, Libby, the vice president, the president’s chief of staff, and the president himself.”
