George Bush has taken his last flight in the iconic presidential airliner, Air Force One before he leaves office on 20 January. The President flew to Virginia to dedicate newly-completed aircraft carrier USS George H W Bush.
As the hours count down to the end of the Bush presidency, the eight-year effort to have the President impeached is moving into high gear. But concern is mounting within the impeach-Bush camp that it may not be possible for the Senate to try the president, much less remove him from office.
Some on the far left are already conceding that Mr Bush may go on to become the longest-serving president in America’s post-war history (tied with three other guys).
The Left will content itself with the fact that Mr Bush’s predecessor Bill Clinton did actually get impeached, given that Mr Clinton was well to the right of most other Democrats.
Although congressional Democrats will no longer be able to impeach Mr Bush come the afternoon of 20 January, the USS George H W Bush will remain in government service for many years to come. Already, some within the Democratic caucus are drawing up both articles of impeachment against the George H W Bush and a plan to make a hole large enough in the Capitol Building to drag the carrier onto the Senate floor.
