The Bush administration's politicization of federal departments and agencies should be grounds for impeachment, since it has caused harm to this country and its people.

As McClatchy's Landay, Youssef and Strobel write in the blog Nukes and Spooks, "We reported more than two years ago on how a reorganiztion of the State Department's arms control and nonproliferation bureaus led to an exodus of experts with decades of experience in these highly specialized areas. Moreover, many State Department experts saw the reorganization as having strong political overtones, punishing those who were out of step with Bush administration dogma and elevating allies of former Undersecretary of State John Bolton.

Now, a new report prepared for the Senate Committee on Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs comes to much the same conclusion. It says the next president should urgently beef up the State Department's capabilities in this area, and ensure that units dealing with nonproliferation and arms control matters have the necessary access to the Secretary of State and the President.

That's well and good about the report, but what about holding accountable the Bushites with their Republican political reorganization of nuclear arms control and non-proliferation offices at the State Department that placed the United States in potential danger.
