Can anyone tell me what law or oath the Prseident has broken?

Question

What crime has he committed? What grounds do you Kool-Aid drinkers have for his impeachment? I'd ask for intelligent, serious responses, but....who am I kidding this is Yahoo! Answers. Moronic responses are probably a foregone conclusion.

Please provide some facts and site some sources. I don't want the standard Liberal meat head responses like, "Because he's a Nazi", or "He looks like an ape!", or "He's so dumb that...."

kitty...Is it a lie if you believe it to be true? The CIA, U.N., Clinton Administration, Britain, etc. all believed that Irag had WMD. Because they did. WMD = nukes, chemical, biological, and or nerve agents. Even leading up to the war, the now anti-war Kerry, Clinton, Schumer, agreed taht Iraq had WMD. Because he did.

region50....where in the constitution say you cannot wiretap? It's a commonly used device by any law enforcement agency, federal, state, municipal. If you are referring to illegal searches and seizures, well than that argument has not held up in court. Not too mention, any communication between an American citizen and a potential/suspected terrorist or collaborator in a FOREIGN country is fair game, and that has been upheld by many legal and constitutional experts.

icac83....If the Patriot Act is infringing on your freedom, you are going to have to remove every member of Congress that voted for it. This was not some edict issued by a dictator. This was a piece of legislation, hammered out by Dems and Repubs, not just the President. Besides, its the Presidents job to defend the citizens of the U.S., which in some peoples opinion, is exactly what the Patriot Act does.

God...if you have a problem with FISA, or the way it is applied, then you have a bigger beef with other people besides the President.

g....As usual you offer nothing intelligent to the conversation, but thanks anyway.

pootfart....Ok...well it's not illegal to be a bad president, if that's how you feel. Otherwise we would have impeached Jimmy Carter.

Tough as hell....I will spar with you intellectually 7 days a week, twice on sunday, especially if that is an example of what you have to offer. Are Senators Feingold, Spector, McCain, Levin or Reid experts on the laws governing the gathering, collection, or analyzing of electronic surveillance, or are the majority of these men partisan politicians? You have given a long winded, run-on list of quotes from politicians with an axe to grind. Believe me, if the President has in any way violated a law or exceeded his power by gathering electronic surveillance of Americans speaking to alleged terrorists, the Democrats will do what they can to bring him to justice.

I am comfortable with the testimony of Lt. Gen. Michael V. Hayden, an expert on the topic, before the Senate Intelligence Committee in regards to the eavesdropping program. As long as your answer is, you fail to site any specific wrongdoings, just generalizations that whatever the president does is violating the constitution.

43....I fully support the prosecution of the president in regards to these offenses following his exit from office, however they do not rise to the level of impeachable offenses.

zippychippy....You....dumb....bastard.....Read the F ing question. Then try again.

zippychippy....You....dumb....bas..tard...

Read the F ing question. Then try again.

Answer 1

The foreign intelligence surveillance act for one. Spying on US Citizens without a warrant is illegal. Oh hell, why bother. You won't believe me anyway.

Answer 2

Actually his own Federal Communications Commission brought charges of violating the anti propaganda law with his VNR's and and direct-mail fliers

Also the RNC controlled GAO says, the Bush administration violated anti-propaganda law when it distributed videos to news stations earlier this year about the newly passed Medicare prescription drug law.

Last I heard the charges can not be processed on a seated president (while in office)

I can take it or leave it because I'm a Redpublican party man. Not a who's on first short term neocon. Presidents come and go the RNC is 2 century's old.

Go big Red Go

Answer 3

Since he is the president he should be responsible for the harm done by his cabinet. Such as starting a war that's escalated into a possible ww3. Supporting legislation that restricts whatever freedoms he's crying about saving. Personally, I think he is dishonest and he has proven that by his actions in the past as well as the present. When he took office there were several trillion dollars of surplus. Now there are probably several trillion dollars owed by the Administration. How can he justify that!!!!

Answer 4

God you're a moron. Only the House of Representatives can bring impeachment charges against a President and since the current House is Republican there won't be any impeachment in this administration even if Bush murdered a bunch of disabled school kids. Grow up and learn what politics is really about.

Answer 5

Clinton didn't just lie about getting busy with a BBW, he lied UNDER FEDERAL OATH. That's a felony, sweetheart. No matter what the subject, he should have been impeached and imprisoned. It would have been his own fault he was going up the river for something so dumb.

Bush has not done one thing out of line from his job description. No one can prove otherwise. He was passing along the intelligence he was given. That's not a lie.

Hey tough as hell: Nice copy and paste job, homeboy... And as a side note, next time you decide you want to insult someone's intelligence, check your grammar/spelling before posting, ok?

Answer 6

Although I doubt you can spar with me intellectually ... being that ,in fact ,you are a hopeless idiot,.here is my response to you..In commenting on President Bush's decision to unilaterally issue domestic eavesdropping orders, Feingold said, "The president has, I think, made up a law that we never passed." Senator Specter said, "They talk about constitutional authority. There are limits as to what the president can do."

Other senators weighed in on the subject, as well. Senator John McCain (R-Arizona) said, "President Bush needs to explain why he chose to ignore the law that requires approval of a special court for domestic wiretaps."

Senator Harry Reid (D-Nevada) has also called for an investigation. He said, "The president can't pass the buck on this one. He's commander in chief. But commander in chief does not trump the Bill of Rights."

Senator Carl Levin (D-Mich.) was even more direct. He said, "Where does he [President Bush] find in the Constitution the authority to tap the wires and the phones of American citizens without any court oversight?"

Feingold added, "He [Bush] is the president, not a king."

While it is true that many of the senators quoted in this column have heretofore often been negligent in their adherence to the Constitution (the McCain/Feingold Campaign Finance Reform bill being a prime example), in this case, they are right on target! President Bush has no authority to order domestic spying without court oversight. None.

It appears painfully true that, in the name of "fighting terrorism," the Bush administration is intent on dismantling America's Bill of Rights. What is worse is there appears to be a sizeable segment of our country that seems fine with it.

Several readers have recently written me saying (paraphrase), "I would gladly surrender my constitutional liberties contained in the Bill of Rights in order for my government to keep me safe." The folly and naïveté of such thinking is staggering!

Virtually every dictator and despot of history assumed control over their respective peoples by promising peace and security. No tyrant tells his people, "I'm going to enslave you and subject you to acts of terror." They all ascended to power with assurances of prosperity and protection.

The American people, especially Christian conservatives, need to face reality: it appears that the Bush administration has assumed king-like powers, has trampled the Constitution and Bill of Rights, and has broken the law! And unless the American people want to trash the Constitution and turn our country over to some kind of monarchal or oligarchic form of government, no leader, not even the President of the United States is above the law!

Please remember that President Bush took an oath to support, protect, and defend the U.S. Constitution. The deliberate violation of that oath, even if done with good intentions, must never be tolerated by the American people. Therefore, every American should insist that both the U.S. Senate and House of Representatives conduct bipartisan investigations into the conduct of President Bush. Only Congress has the authority to hold the Executive Branch of government accountable to the American people and to the Constitution. After all, without the checks and balances of the Constitution, without allegiance to the enumerated powers of the Constitution, without fidelity to the Bill of Rights, America would become no better than the terrorist nations our president says he is trying to protect us from!

Answer 7

Yo Alligator, Listen Up!
Are not you really tired of the continuous lies our president makes every day? Isn't that enough evidence. Don't you know that your president said the followings: "The USA Constitution is a Goddamn piece of paper" meaning he can change any law as he prefers. He also said "I am a war president, I always think of terms of wars" Don't you really think that Bush is really mentally screwed up? Yo Bush, Listen Up....you are the biggest lire, and your lies broke so many laws. Thanks for listening to me.

Answer 8

eh... it seems like the plume CIA leak investigation is winding down... so I'm not sure... the abramoff thing is still going on too... but those are on going investigations and the facts are not known...

at least we're talking about an actual politician though... instead of some vague idea of "liberals" that many conservatives use to cry about everything under the sun...

Answer 9

he broke the consititutional part by guaranteering us freedom. i say that because he agree to sign a two year deal with the patriot act after 911. also the prinsoners in cuba is not guarnteer any lawyers. i rest my case

Answer 10

WMD. When clinton lied about having sex, they strung his *** out to dry.

Bush screams about wmd, and openly admits later that the white house put a spin on it to justify the war, and you think that's ok?

Clinton's lie didn't kill anyone.
