U.S. Constitution - Article II, Section 4:
"The President... of the United States, shall be removed from Office on Impeachment for, and Conviction of, Treason, Bribery, or other high Crimes and Misdemeanors."
Patrick Fitzgerald was investigating whether Bush was involved in outing Valerie Plame, which has been described as treason.
It is known that the White House was engaged in paying guys like Armstrong Williams to plant stories in the press. Many say it is a form of bribery.
Bush has admitted on national television that he engaged in electronic surveillance without getting the authorization of a court. It is considered a felony if a person intentionally "engages in electronic surveillance under color of law except as authorized by statute".
Therefore it may be said Bush has committed Treason, Bribery and high Crimes. And Iraq...?
What do you think?
