John McCain has lied for his entire political life.  Lots of people fell for it.  Some of you fell for it.  Somehow, one of the Keating Five got people to think he was against corruption.  Somehow, a man who calls himself "a Reagan Republican" got people to think he represented some sort of change in the Republican party.

Here's truth.

Yes.

And one of the ways to hold his feet to the fire is to get involved in supporting a candidate for the US House that looks at the issues the same way you do. It's not enough to take back the Oval Office if the House and Senate remain controlled by the people who thought investigations into the doings of the Bush White House were "off the table."

Yup. It needs to be back on the table. Once Bush is out of office, it still needs to be on the table.

Just because a President has left office doesn't mean he -- and his whole damn gang -- can't be impeached. Nor is it an empty gesture. It may or may not affect his pension, but someone who has been impeached and convicted is Constitutionally barred from holding any sort of public office again.
