Yes, all male dominated hierarchies have the war and genocidal
history of the world to claim as their achievements; but
that is not an excuse for ecologically minded people to say, well,
one more coup won't matter because they've all been rotten.
I think that the direction of the impeachment is important; Clinton
is being couped by the male and corporate (tobacco, defense) right,
not from the compassionate, third-world concerned left. Those attacking
him are attacking not only him, but down the pike, any democratic
climate in which questions like yours can ever be seriously considered.
I agree that dominant male corporate controlled hierarchies
should all have their legitimacy challenged; the male dominated Senate
of the US would be illegal in Finland and not accepted in much
of Scandinavia. The most male dominating modern governments are the US
and England; hence the tilt toward war and defense, and now,
complete corporate takeover-coups. But if ecofeminists don't mind seeing
a man in the middle like Clinton toppled by the right; they'll have to
ignore elections and democracy itself; US men and women are in the crisis
of the century to see that a public election is not overturned by the
oligarchy of the global corporations that now controls the Republicans
in the US and already control much of Clinton's own Democratic
party in the corporate male Congress. US women and feminists are
in the middle of the proxy fight of their life; if their
President is done in, so will be most of their issues.
