It’s not that I disagree with the Day’s call for Lou Deluca to resign. I just find it hard to understand why our crusading local newspaper finds it so easy to see that consensual blowjobs or mafia hits merit removal from office, while premeditated wars of choice apparently don’t. What kind of country do we live in when our opinion leaders think that anyone calling for George Bush’s removal is a deranged leftist? The reason impeachment is not an option is because “respectable” voices like the Day’s remain silent. Deluca tried to send two thugs to beat up one thug, Bush sent a whole army to kill hundreds of thousands of people on the basis of a series of lies. Presumably the Day doesn’t find that a compelling reason for Bush to step aside. Apparently, if one’s crime rise to a certain level of enormity, one acquires an immunity from serious reproach.
