Let’s just impeach him

We almost impeached a Pres­i­dent for hav­ing oral sex. Can’t we impeach one for deceit, incom­pe­tence, and malice?

In this arti­cle from CNN, Chertoff argues that nobody pre­dicted this kind of dis­as­ter, while Brown sug­gests that FEMA had planned for a cat­e­gory 5 storm two years ago. Time Mag­a­zine has an arti­cle on Brown’s faked cre­den­tials, and The Washin­gon Monthly has a chronol­ogy of FEMA under the Bush Admin­is­tra­tion. Mary Lan­drieu (D-LA) released a state­ment on Sept. 3, not­ing the staged nature of Bush’s photo-ops in New Orleans.

Bar­bara Bush had this to say about evac­uees in Houston’s Astrodome, “And so many of the peo­ple in the arena here, you know, were under­priv­i­leged any­way, so this–this (she chuck­les slightly) is work­ing very well for them.”

Keith Olber­mann takes every­one to task, in a con­vinc­ing man­ner (mov).

The New Orleans Times-Picayune printed an open let­ter to the Pres­i­dent.

And finally, The Daily Show skew­ers the Administration’s response (wmv).

Jesus Christ, people.

UPDATE: I fixed the link to the Times-Picayune edi­to­r­ial, now at CNN.
