Yesterday, I told a friend that I am through with writing about war on this blog. It’s just been draining too much of my focus, and is too taxing emotionally. I’m a poet, and I starting this blog to be about poetry, writing, art and culture. And philosophy, metaphysics. Metaphor, metaphysics. Same difference? No. Anyway, regrettably, I started it right before His Arrogance commenced with the shock and awe, which has been a compelling and ready diversion. Oh well.

This is not a post about war. It’s a post about peace, in a sense. We could say it’s about the rule of law and the peaceful endowment, withdrawl, and transition of national power. It’s about time.

It’s about time that we, with gravity and circumspect sobriety, begin the essential dialog of impeachment of President George W. Bush. He has committed high crimes and misdemeanors, failed in his oath to uphold the law, and acted to the manifest injury of the American people. I’m not the only one who thinks so.

Today, The Nation magazine, which has been published since the time of the Civil War, proffered an article calling for investigation and impeachment. [Link]

It’s about time.
