I wish MikeAI and a couple of the other uber-conservatives came wandering over to read this one:

Before and during the Iraq war, the number of Americans supporting Bush's actions were HUGE... off the scale for the most part. Now 50% plus want him impeached if lies about going to Iraq are revealed (and many already have, IMHO).
Cheney's public support is around 15% - usually the VP is the inoffensive guy with a constantly decent rating, often being setup to take a run at being President next time. No hope of that here (thank buddy christ!).
Bush's approval ratings are low enough that it is clear that even a large number of republican hardliners are not liking him or his actions anymore.
As the article above mentions, I think this summer will be the time that the Republicans trying to get (re)elected this fall will put as much distance between themselves and the President, and impeachment is actually a reasonable possiblity within the next 2 years.
Ugly.
