Impeachment, anyone?

I suppose it's too much to claim that I started it, or even that one almost invisible blog and one story in a generally liberal publication constitute a groundswell, but according to this article in today's Salon.com there does seem to be a growing trend of politicians and legal scholars talking about impeachment for the most recent revelations of Bush's criminality. As John Dean, who knows something about impeachable offenses from the inside, points out in the article, Bush appears to be the first President to ever admit to committing impeachable offenses.

The story also points out that the legal question is just about irrelevant without the political will to carry it out, which makes me think that it is important to start talking it up to our elected representatives every chance we get.
