Beat the rush, impeach Blair today!

Not on any news websites I've seen yet, not even the channel4 one. However, on C4 news just now, it was reported that a lot of MPs (mostly Plaid Cymru, a welsh national party) support the move to initiate empeachment proceedings against Uncle Tony. I'm going to fax my MP (www.faxyourmp.com) and request that he joins in, just as soon as I can find an appropraite BBC or C4 link. He prolly will, he's a lib dem, and a top chap.

Hopefully justice will prevail and all other spin-heavy politicians will learn a valuable lesson about telling porky-pies.

AAHAHAHA "telling porky-pies", that sounds like it would be a good thing.

Tomorrow the Plaid Cymru MP Adam Price will be launching a bid to impeach the Prime Minister for a variety of things, primarily for allegedly taking the country to war on a false prospective. We'll be looking at how you go about impeaching a Prime Minister and asking if Tony Blair's failings could qualify for the treatment.

Impeach him for what?

Impeach him for what?

Misleading the nation (and parliament in specific) over the war in Iraq.

That's an interesting statement, it made me think of Clinton and his impeachment nonesense over getting a fuckin blowjob and lying about it....compared to GWB lying about WMDs and blowing off the UN and whatnot...and no one wants to impeach him? It's a crazy mixed up world, I must say.

Not yet, but he is a busy guy. He usually takes a week or so.
