For war don't even get me started. A better offense is a better defense.Putting soldiers in harms way is good. War is never good when innocent lives are killed,but we can just have sex produce more babies to make up for the ones lives that where lost.Is that your way of thinking why help others when we can not even help ourselves.......................

No but a leader needs respect, a leader needs to lead,he has the power to push,he has the power to veto
The word 'veto' comes from Latin and literally means I forbid. It is used to denote that a certain party has the right to unilaterally stop a certain piece of legislation. A veto thus gives unlimited power to stop changes, but not to adopt them.

Here is one thing that Bush has done:

1. He won the Presidential Election.

"Neil Young’s new album, "Living with War," is an incendiary, moving, totally American document of peaceful protest that is going to make a lot of people crazy one way or another.

And there’s no doubt that the centerpiece of the album, a song called “Let’s Impeach the President,” performed as a melodic, rocking campfire ode, will be what causes the most controversy.

For one thing, though Young has lived in California since the late 1960s, his naysayers will decry him as a Canadian. Others will call him unpatriotic or treasonous.

But there are just as many fans of Neil Young who will cite him as a political poet, a hero and a troubadour working in the most traditional vein of American music.

Certainly “Living with War” contains the most pungent attacks on a U.S. president in pop-rock since The Ramones recorded “Bonzo Goes to Bitburg” in the late 1980s.

And Young reaches back to the original rock protest singer, Bob Dylan, calling out to him in one of the songs.

But this album is no giddy hit and run. It’s far more serious and searing in its assessment of contemporary life than that, and it wouldn’t matter if it came from someone born in Kansas City or Ottawa.

When "Living with War" starts streaming on www.neilyoung.com on Friday, my guess is the servers will overheat. The real test will come next week, when the album is available for downloading on several sites.

For now, though, here are the lyrics many parents are going to be hearing their kids singing in the next few days. Young has been clever enough to write the catchiest protest song since Country Joe and the Fish’s anti-Vietnam ditty, “I Feel Like I’m Fixin’ to Die.”

Here, for the first time, the lyrics to Neil Young’s “Let’s Impeach the President”:

Let’s impeach the president for lying
And leading our country into war
Abusing all the power that we gave him
And shipping all our money out the door

He’s the man who hired all the criminals
The White House shadows who hide behind closed doors
And bend the facts to fit with their new stories
Of why we have to send our men to war

Let’s impeach the president for spying
On citizens inside their own homes
Breaking every law in the country
By tapping our computers and telephones

What if Al Qaeda blew up the levees
Would New Orleans have been safer that way
Sheltered by our government’s protection
Or was someone just not home that day?

Let’s impeach the president
For hijacking our religion and using it to get elected
Dividing our country into colors
And still leaving black people neglected

Thank god he’s cracking down on steroids
Since he sold his old baseball team
There’s lot of people looking at big trouble
But of course the president is clean

Thank God"

We can't impeach Bush until Democrats get the majority in Congress and the Senate. Until then, the GOP will not investigate anything that the Bush administration (or any Republican) does or has done.

The primary reason is to keep the public from really getting ticked at Republicans in general. (They've earned our scorn by their inaction, and by not keeping Bush in line.) Theyt're like kids who know they've been bad, and they hope if they don't say anything, mommy and daddy won't punish them.

That being said, he really has done many things that are unconstitutional, immoral, and illegal. I'd like to see justice done, and I imagine many others feel the same way.

So, you need to get involved with your local Democrats. Help them get elected to office. If the GOP has to compete for votes, they'll snap into line and go after Bush.

It's one thing to complain. It's another thing to do something about it. See if there's a DFA group in your area. If not, start one. (Democracy for America.) Or look for other Democrats in your area. (They're there, trust me. Even if you live in a so called Red State.)

Otherwise, it'll be business as usual, stay the course rhetoric from the GOP.

Organize. Educate. Activate.

I can't think of one (good) thing. Neil Young is a Canadien by the way. Bush is too arrogant and that will be his downfall. But Neil Young should worry about his country, not ours. We can handle our own. Bush should be impeached, but it won't happen because the Republicans control both houses. And both parties are way too partisan to do the right thing. That's why I'm an indepent. We can think for ourselves and not just follow along...

Actually it shouldn't be what has Bush done, but what has this government's administration executive, legislative and judiciary done.

A President isn't the sole leader of our country. If he or she was, we'd still be sipping tea and saying "god save the queen.".

Impeaching President Bush will do absolutely nothing... just like impeaching Mr. Clinton did, expect draw more lines and put more people at odds and get more people arguing about side issues, rather than what is important.

One good thing?

Made New Orleans a tax free zone to get jobs back in there.

Just signed an executive order making government seizure of private property for economic growth illegal. So now you don't have to worry about the government kicking you out of your house to make way for a strip mall.

Has given tax incentives to people who buy hybrids to decrease the countries dependency on oil. plus he is funding research into hydrogen cars, 20 of which are being road tested in Florida right now. And I think it is sad a republican oil man has had more results on getting us off of the oil standard than any of hid predecessors.

Those are a few I can think of right off the top of my head.

Hell yeah, that album is great. What one thing has Bush done, ummm lied to get us into war, benefited from war, illegal wiretapping which he stated he needed a court order for, he did not read the Presidental daily briefings stating that Bin Laden was determined to strike within the US. So you can see Bush has done alot, just none of it for good.

Just one thing? OK...he has fought back against terrorism, something his predecessor refused to do for fear of ruining his poll numbers. Clinton was right about that though: the War on Terror is an ugly business, which makes it unpopular with the people.
