Not SHOULD but *WILL* he be impeached?

Eliot Rosewater

Argue all you want. His ordering of the illegal wire taps and overseeing the forging of documents that lead to war absolutely does fall under the category of "high crimes and misdemeanors." He's yet to be held accountable for either thing and no one's pressed it....but they will. Not to mention his overseeing of crimes against humanity in Iraq, his endoresement of torture, and his apparent involvement on "The worst terror attack ever on American soil."

So....Now the question is - Will Bush 43 be impeached? I think so. I think both he and Cheney will be held accountable for their criminal behavior over the past six years.

If this board is any indicator, this whole Democrat control thing is just a minor bump for the Republican Party. We'll be right back in the majority where we belong in 2008.

Political education by bumper stickers and slogans is definitely a good idea.

mrwalkerb

he won't get impeached because the dems need all the extra support they can get and if they try anything the GOP (that's the republicans right? I always confuse the two) will make a big stink, I mean if Kerry can get so much flack for some lame joke that he totally bunged the punchline on if the dems try to do anything real they will get shit on by the "liberal media"

ledvedderman

Yes he SHOULD get impeached, but he won't. Speaker Pelosi (oh yeah) has said that she won't seek impeachment. I think the Democrats will try to put this country back together and an impeachment would look like "business as usual" in DC

or god forbid you lie under oath. nice smoke screen though.


no bush will not be impeached

I don't think so and I hope not.

To me, that would be a sign that politics and government in the U.S. have truly degenerated past the point of no return to where getting elected is truly the only thing that matters.

Meaning that inqueries into impeaching Bush and prosecuting his regime will begin at some point in the Spring.

Will absolutely never happen and there is not enough ground to stand on to do it. For every argument you present there is a counter argument. You can hope, but it will never happen.

He will not be impeached, and he shouldn't be. I love the last line in your first paragraph, "his apparent involvement on "the worst terror attack ever on American soil." Your joking right?

I strongly believe that there is enough concrete evidence available which proves beyond reasonable doubt that senior figures in the Bush Administration had prior knowledge of plans to attack key targets in the U.S using hijacked planes, and that they allowed the attacks to happen.

Thanks for sharing. I usually go to the bookstore on Sunday mornings. I'll look for it.

I think there should be investigations and hearings before we say whether Bush should be impeached or not. Bush may have made a big mistake but he also could have deliberately misled the country into war with Iraq for other reasons.

He won't be impeached but hasn't he doubled the number of Americans who have died as a result of 9/11? But I'm sure that because of his decision making and courageous actions, America is much less likely to be a target and every American is safer than they were on Sept 12.

The worst part is that if he wasn't a complete idiot (or puppet), he had a chance to go down as one of the best President's in history. He had 2 major catastrophes on which he could have built a heroic legacy if he would have done something right and he blew both chances miserably. I still can't fathom that anybody defends anything that this loser does. He is nothing short of a punch line in the history of the States.

Oh, you don't need to convince me that he broke the law. As far as I'm concerned, the warrantless wiretapping alone is enough, or sending prisoners off to be tortured, or ... well, you get the idea, I think there's plenty of reasons, whether or not he was involved in 9/11 (and I'm not saying he was or wasn't, I haven't read that much about it).

But the democratic leadership doesn't agree, a good number of the democrats elected last Tuesday are moderate (some are former republicans), and in any case they'd never get a 2/3 majority anyway, so it ain't happening.

And he should have been impeached when all the lies he's made were fresh on the minds of Americans. But the Dems dropped the ball. We're past the point of impeachment now, I'm just hoping the Dems will just try to get America back on the right track. Now's the time to make a change, not an impeachment.

No, the republicans dropped the ball. The democrats had no power in congress. That's not to say that they wouldn't have dropped the ball given the chance, but it's unfair to say it was their fault. The republican leadership wouldn't let anything come to the floor, wouldn't even give the democrats a room to have their own hearings, or when they did get a room, the republicans turned out the lights and the power to the microphones. Besides, they were a minority, they'd have never gotten a simple majority to vote for impeachment, much less the 2/3 required, and they wouldn't get it now either, which is why they're not going to waste their time.

No way...the Democrats are going to make a big deal and might try it, but it won't happen. They should focus their efforts on the future of America and try to do something now that they have majorities in the House and Senate. They have been bitching about everything the Republicans have done wrong, so it is time to see what they can get accomplished. It is time to focus on the positives and keep our nation strong.

No. Terrorists are killing our brave men & women, not President Bush.

You could arguably say the same thing about President Clinton after the numerous terrorist attacks on American interests both home and abroad. Most notably, you had the 1993 WTC bombing. Hell, Clinton even had an infamous hurricane (Andrew in '93). Clinton isn't know for riding to the rescue in the case of the latter or the former. You're nitpicking, IMHO.


Oh and I think they will impeach him in the House. They cannot resist themselves nor the MoveOn.org wing of the party. It's win/win for the GOP either way b/c the electorate will not react positively to impeachment proceedings AGAIN. Especially since the Dems have been stressing bi-partisanship in their drive to winning control of Congress.

sadly he's not. there are about 7-10 on this board who firmly believe the bush, rummy, cheney, wolfowitz or combination thereof, sat at starbucks and came up with the plan and carried it out on 9/11. makes me sick.

its part of the problem with freedom. we have to tolerated garbage like that.
