The Bush administration is one, long, bad movie

As the New Normal wants to focus on, there's something new and abnormal in what has transpired during the Bush years. Now, just as the torture debate gets taken off the front burner another pot begins to boil, that full of domestic spying by first the Pentagon and next the National Security Agency.

What begins as an abuse of power now seems to be possible criminal activity or, at the very least, unconstitutional undertakings.

How long will the American people put up with this? I'm beginning to sense, for the first time, a critical mass accumulating, in which the word impeachment can begin to be uttered without hyperbole.

Bush is a dangerous affront to the presidency and a threat to our constitutional way of governing.

What more will come out? Knowing this administration, there will always be more and likely more shocking.

Update: Martin Garbus on HuffPo thinks this is impeachable and also offers the view that McCain didn't win on the torture debate with Bush.

You might be interested in a report I did a few years ago regarding the NSA spying on us domestically.

It includes a treatment of how they perform Internet email monitoring, by way of my describing how I monitored the emails of more than 7000 employees on Wall Street.

Somehow I've also managed to include a description of how life begins from lifeless atoms.

Can you say, 'bloviate'? Well, it was my first polemic.
