Will Bush be Impeached?

News on the grapevine has it that the Bush administration is bracing for impeachment hearings in Congress. "
A coalition in Congress is being formed to support impeachment," an administration source said. Administration sources said a prelude to the impeachment process could begin with hearings by the Senate Judiciary Committee in February. They said the hearings would focus on the secret electronic surveillance program and whether Mr. Bush violated the 1978 Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act.

Elsewhere: "There is a reckoning coming," stated House Majority Whip Roy Blunt (R-Mo.), "and it is time for Mr. Bush to pay the price for his his reckless disregard for the truth."
and: the Impeach Bush site.
and: the Impeach Bush Ad that apeared in the New York Times.
With Bush giving his State of The Union (or is it 'Onion', George) Address tonight, you can bet it will be full of wiggling and squirming and patriotic balderdash aimed at undermining any impeachment attempt.
