Re: It's about time

we didn't impeach slick willy for his lack of action, we won't impeach bush for his actions.

Only action slick willy took was in the Oval office/orface.

Impeach Bush.

You'll wind up with Cheney, dumbasses.

Of course, you could then impeach him and end up with Hastert.

Re: It's about time

The democratic national committee should shut this down immediately, or lose all hope of gaining any ground in the house and senate. But the leadership (and I use that term loosely) are themselves responsible for the "victimhood" mentality and back-bencher-permanent-minority-fringe corporate culture of the party now.

The reason Bush is in office is because the democratic party is too stupid and corrupt to nominate someone who could win.

Get rid of Dean, respectfully oppose the war and the presidency, offer a realistic strategy to get out, and get a candidate who isn't a complete whining loser for '08.

Or you might get to keep those "Impeach Bush" signs for Jeb.

And this is coming from an elected dem who might get busy and form a local third party.

Wonderful post. If I was local, I'd probably offer to help.

Re: It's about time

If Clinton didn't get impeached for immoral actions, and lets see - LYING, then I can't see Bush getting canned. People just like something to whine about. There have been Anti-Bush campains from day one.

This is nothing more than a Political game in order to pursuade the American Public to vote Dem in "08". I say let's stop being divided and vote for the best man and not for a Party.

And yes I said best "man". Trust me, Hillary was President, it was just under Bill's name. I don't want to see that happen again. I thought we were to learn from our mistakes.

Re: It's about time

I would love to see Bush go through some impeachment proceedings but I doubt it will happen.

The Democrats with some backbone (I know, there are very few of them) should get together with the Republicans who are not crazy (I know again, not very many) and form a third party. They would be well educated, fiscally conservative, socially responsible, constitutionalists. Wait....I think this party existed once in history. Now what were they called again.......Oh yeah......... Republicans.

Show me where there is a definitive agreement among legal scholars on that issue and I'm on board with you. Until then it's a debate...one that will last for years...

Ah. Gotcha. Thought needing a warrant was a clear-cut law. Guess the debate will rage on, then.

Re: It's about time

I've read points of view from intelligent people on both sides of the issue. If it was clear cut, then they would have started the impeachment process already...

Tough issue with a lot of facets...

A president can be impeached without breaking any laws. It is up to the congress to do so. And that is why it will not happen for GW.

No he won't it's his mode here...

I'm guessing he's alluding to the interpretation of "High crimes and misdemeanors"...ala the Slick Willy debacle....

The left can't let go of it, so they now view impeachment as a punitive measure for things they don't "like"....simple as that....
