Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
I wonder if the current administration has become enough of a liability for the Republican party for impeachment discussions to be happening behind closed doors?
There are polls on impeachment.
Admittedly, not the most disinterested source for the story.
More (earlier) rumors about Bush's mental state: [link]
Last year Capitol Hill Blue reported that Bush was taking anti-depressant drugs to control his erratic behavior, depression and paranoia. "Bush's mental stability has become the topic of Washington whispers in recent months. Capitol Hill Blue first reported on June 4 about increasing concern among White House aides over the President’s wide mood swings and obscene outbursts." That was entertaining stuff, but it was just CHB being CHB. Good for some laughs, but that's all.

Needless to say, all of these stories are sourced anonymously and there's no telling if there's any truth to any of them. But who are these sources? At the very least, there seem to be a fair number of people who can be plausibly labeled "insiders" and who are gleefully passing along rumors of serious presidential angst. What's going on?
It seems that FoxNews has been much rougher on him lately too. Very odd. And kinda fun, but odd.
yeah, I'm actually enjoying watching the news again.
Human Events is more likely the "number one conservative mouthpiece" or whatever. Let's not forget the Wash Times, while unquestionably deeply conservative, is owned by the Moonies, not the GOP.

And yet, it reprints RNC memos, verbatim, as news.

Squid? Scallops?
Well, Moonies are strange people sometimes. I've seen some of the most entertaining tabloidesque paranoid screamers in the Times. They're funnier than my own local tabloid, but the Herald makes up for it with people who are often brusquely and foolishly, but ardently, devoted to the topics they cover.
I did not think that I could come to love tabloids, until I taught myself to see them as luridly OTT performance art. They're not all that for news (although sometimes have pretty good sports departments), but they'll certainly tell you a lot about the fracture lines in a culture.
No squid. I have a texture problem.
Capitol Hill Blue is pretty far outside the mainstream. Further than the Times, though in the opposite direction. So hefty grain of salt.
