Two For Two

This just in from the National Journal:

By a vote of 56 to 44, the Senate failed to stop debate on the '06 defense appropriations bill with the ANWR drilling provision attached.

It now returns to conference, where members will likely strip the ANWR plank from the text and resubmit it for a vote.

Better late than never, I guess. Nice to see some huevos growing on the minority side. Patriot Act, now ANWR. Good enough. Maybe after the election, we can see a GWB perp walk.

Question

Is lying about a blow job more impeachable than subverting the Constitution, acting like a dictator, illegally spying on citizens and ignoring the law?

I'd really like to hear from all of you Kool-aid drinkers out there. And if you want to give the "we're at war" argument, please give me a reference to the applicable Declaration Of War passed by the Congress of the United States of America. Your argument will still be specious, but at least you'll be able to cite long discredited precedent.

Anyone?
