Bush got re-election (although who knows how honestly) in 2004. If he was taken down now a new President (not Cheney either, he's tainted by the same mess) would have to be installed. Such uncertainty would not serve anybody with wealth in this country well. My guess is anything that things will heat up near the 2008 election and any real shit will be revealed after Bush is out of office. Just like Clinton and the Lewinsky stuff IIRC.
A question for some older* Plasticians: When did Reagan's troubles start appearing? Iran-Contra and Oliver North was 1987-1988 wasn't it? How close was it to the end of his term and was there other stuff that could have been troublesome before that which the press / democrats didn't seem to grab on?
*I was alive at the time, just too young to care about politicks
