For the Bush Bashers?

Question

I keep reading here and other site that Bush should be Impeached, you know you can only Impeach a president for commiting a crime while in office.

So what are you legal grounds that you want him impeached for???????

Answer 1

DETAILS AND PROOF: READ AND WEEP

1) Seized power to wage wars of aggression in defiance of the U.S. Constitution, the U.N. Charter and the rule of law; carried out a massive assault on and occupation of Iraq, a country that was not threatening the United States, resulting in the death and maiming of tens of thousands of Iraqis, and hundreds of U.S. G.I.s. - NOT TRUE. THE PRESIDENT REC'D APPROVAL TWO TIMES TO INVADE IRAQ. AND THE DEMS ARE THE ONES WHO WANTED TO MAKE IT TWICE SO THERE WAS PROOF THAT IT HAPPENED.

2) Lied to the people of the U.S., to Congress, and to the U.N., providing false and deceptive rationales for war. - WE WENT TO WAR ON INTELIGENCE RECIEVED FROM A TRUSTED ALI (BLAIR). "IF" ANYONE LIED IT WAS BLAIR NOT BUSH.

3) Authorized, ordered and condoned direct attacks on civilians, civilian facilities and locations where civilian casualties were unavoidable. IT'S WAR. NOT PLAY TIME.

4) Ordered and directed the violent overthrow of sovereign states, disappearances, kidnappings, assassinations, summary executions, murder and torture. WHERE IS YOUR PROOF FOR THIS?

5) Authorizing, ordering and condoning assassinations, summary executions, kidnappings, secret and other illegal detentions of individuals, torture and physical and psychological coercion of prisoners to obtain false statements concerning acts and intentions of governments and individuals and violating within the United States, and by authorizing U.S. forces and agents elsewhere, the rights of individuals under the First, Fourth, Fifth, Sixth and Eighth Amendments to the Constitution of the United States, the Universal Declaration of Human Rights, and the International Covenant on Civil and Political Rights. WHERE IS YOUR PROOF FOR THIS? I THINK IF THERE WAS PROOF THIS WOULD BE ENOUGH TO IMPEACH HIM.

Answer 2

I personally am against impeachment, however, according to the War Crimes Act of 1996:
"Any US national commits a war crime if he/she commits any grave breach of the terms set forth in Geneva Conventions of 1949 and the Hague Conventions of 1907. If the victim dies, the convicted may be subject to a penalty of death."

Now that the Supreme Court has ruled that the Guantanamo Bay detainees are subject to the rules of the Geneval Convention, the past treatment of them, as authorized by the White House, could be considered criminal.

Thus, he has left himself open to the possiblity.

Why has the White House refused to release documents to Congress regarding the Vice-President's energy commission; the forms between the Defense Dept. and the White House regarding the awarding of no-bid contracts to Halliburton; the documents regarding the prison abuses at Abu Ghraib; the White House documents discussing pre-war intelligence on WMDs in Iraq; and the cost estimates of the Medicare drug benefit program.

Considering not all of those are related to national security, it easily leads people to believe they're covering up things that they don't want us to know, because it will expose them to further charges of corruption.

If they were more transparent, I don't think the calls for impeachment would be growing. A March, 2006 American Research Group poll showed 42% favoring impeachment. That's not a small minority. The lowest numbers in any 2006 poll was 30%. When asked if he should be impeached if it's proven that he misled the public about going to war in Iraq, 72% of Americans said, "Yes."

Again, I am not really in favor of impeachment. But don't think it's a small group of people.

Answer 3

Too bad the grounds you are claiming are up for determination by the majority. And since loser liberals are not in the majority - you won't be able to even make a motion for impeachment. Still yet another sad day in the life of a liberal.

Answer 4

Every single day that he goes into the Oval Office or on another bi-weekly vacation he commits the crime of negligence against the American People. He's not worth the time & effort to impeach him. He'll be gone soon.

Answer 5

If somebody REALLY wanted to impeach him, I'd bet they could spin any number of things he's done into a crime -- lying to congress, Guantanamo, skirting FISA and a few other things.

But they're so grey and have many nuances that calling it illegal/a crime is not easy.

Plus, with a republican controlled congress, it ain't going to happen.

Answer 6

Impeachment ain't gonna happen. I do hope people are tired of the prices going up on everything and the money out of your pockets. With any luck they won't make the same mistake again.

Answer 7

Every proposal or every law Bush made was authorized by the Congress and that included the votes from the Democrats.

Funny the loser LIBS never called Clinton a liar when he started mentioning "WMD in Iraq" in public.

Answer 8

First there needs to be an investigation. The Republicans are not going to have investigations on there own party members. If he did something wrong I want him out plain and simple but if we don't investigate we wont know. That's what we are talking about here. Justice

Answer 9

Lol you go boy Hitler had supporters too. I don't hate the man I just don't think he is an effective leader by no means. He has twisted the laws too many times that's why people want him gone. I just look at him and smile because he is so darn cute, why cry about it just try to keep your sanity.

Answer 10

Noticed its not a "he lied" response.

Actually what he did was first with the preemptive strike,then with Abu Ghraib.It that was Clinton the cheerleaders for the far right on this site would be all over it.
