Should Bush be impeached for high crimes and other things?

Question

Clearly Bush has lied to the American people. He has conducted what looks like an endless "War on Terror" (whatever the hell that means).

I am NOT interested in what Al Gore or Bill Clinton said about Saddam. BUSH is president now.
BTW, Clinton was impeached over a ********

And today we learn that he coerced Pakistan into joining the endless war on terror under threat of "bombing them into the stone age." Of course he denies this.

Was Clinton guilty of high crimes when he lied about having a quickie with Monica? Which is worse: Lying about a sexual encounter or lying about the reasons to go to war and kill thousands of people?

Answer 1

yes, he has broken many more laws than clinton and more serious crimes too, not just personal foible. he kills people! he invaded a peaceful city on a false pretext.

Answer 2

Please be more specific. Please list exactly what "High" crimes that our PRESIDENT committed. And exactly what "other things" you are accusing him of. He has explained the links between the military operations in Iraq and the fight against the terrorists. If you haven't noticed, there is endless supply of them in Iraq.
If you really want to know why the battle with the terrirists is occuring, here is what it is all about in a nutshell. It is about IDEALS. Two forms of civilization are clashing. THe Muslim world and the Western World. Freedom vs. Oppression. Read some history of the middle east, you might get a sense of what the Muslims want for the Western World. It is not about religion, it is about a way of life. If you don't love freedom, then you belong in the Middle East. Bush didn't start this battle, it has been going on for many years. It just happens that it was brought to us on 9/11. We have been attacked in Beruit, Yemen, Syria, Iran and many other places over the years. Some attacks occured at our Embassys, which under international law, are soverign territory of the county occupying the embassy. That means that they attacked US soil. Where is the outrage from Americans and other countries when we are attacked? Bush comitted no crimes. Iraq disobeyed UN resolutions many times, ejected UN weapons inspectors. It was assumed that the inspectors were close to finding the WMD's that the world community felt were there. But the reason for going in was not necessarily in response to 9/11, it was in response to the UN resolutions. Did you forget about time period between the first Gulf war and 9/11. Our planes being shot at, the weapons inspectors being ejected, the oil for food scandle? If we would not have gone into Iraq, the world would be saying that the US was not living up to its commitments. THe response to 9/11 was the invasion of afganistan, the toppling of the taliban, and the hunt for bin laden. Two separate issues, two separate wars. I believe that the war on terrorism is a completely different war than the two I just mentioned. That would mean three different wars at one time, yet they all seem to emminate from one source. The hatred of the west from Islam. Surprise, they want to kill us or make us convert to their belief system, then they will kill us anyway. But, I guess Bush is to blame for all that? I believe that he is doing his best to protect us. Why not just back off a little bit. I sure the libs and democrats have a game plan, just in case hell freezes over and they get the white house in 08.

Answer 3

does nonjoo mean no-brains,what crimes has President George W. Bush committed?Pres.Bush didn't say any thing more about Hussein than Bu Bu Clinton or Hillary Clinton or John Karry or Ted Kennedy or Tony Blair they all thought that Hussein had weapons of mass destruction.Hussein used nerve gas on his own people,mass Graves of thousands of people have been uncovered in Iraq, people that Hussein had executed.the U.S. morned the 9/11 attack this month. Dumb AS$.every thing that Pres.Bush is doing is to stop or keep Terrorists from killing American people.

Answer 4

Sorry, Bush may have been mistaken due to poor information, but did not lie (look up the definition in a dictionary and compare it to the 911 report). The war in Iraq is certainly a mess, but to be impeached, you need to have committed "high crimes and misdemeanors". He has not done these things. Do some real research and studying on these matters yourself before you decide - for yourself. Don't let me or any others decide for you.

Answer 5

certain, if he commits a criminal offense or act of treason, for sure Bush, like all different president, must be impeached. if you extremely care about info or truth, Clinton changed into impeached for mendacity below oath and obstruction of justice. because he lied to a grand jury below oath. also a reality is that Bush has no longer lied about Saddam or al Qaeda. no longer in reality did the U. S. intelligence amenities say that Saddam had WMD, so did the British, French, Russian, UN, etc. That changed into the information he had to make judgements on. As for al Qaeda, it were lengthy regularly occurring by making use of intelligence that there changed into some relationship between Iraq and al Qaeda considering a minimum of 1992. Even Clinton acknoledged this. So changed into it authentic for 8 years then with out word unfaithful? finally, Bush did he enable the bin Ladens fly domicile early or with out bieng interviewed by making use of the FBI. those are outright lies and falsehoods. 22 of the 26 human beings interior the party were interviewed, as talked about interior the 9/11 fee rfile. and they did not fly out till 9/20, on the advice of Richard Clarke. it truly is one aspect to no longer like the president and disagree such as his guidelines. yet maximum of those lies, smears and untruths aspect out a aspect of psychological instability.

Answer 6

No. He's following the agenda of people he has to answer to. (No, unfortunately not the American people at large).

Any other candidate will be put in place by the same power group and will simply follow their orders. Bush is slightly better than the rest because at least he has some moral values and is wise enough to pray.

Cantcu: Lucky I read your answer while I could still add to my answer! You sure are down on someone else when you act like you must be perfect. You've never done anything wrong in your life? Better watch it! Those who judge harshly end up being judged themselves. Better have a little mercy!

Answer 7

No, he's done nothing wrong.
And he's been cleaning out the terrorists which HAD to be done and it is a damned shame Clinton didn't do any real work on that, leaving it all to him.

Too bad Clinton didn't take more of any kind of real action when the USS Cole and the World Trade Towers were attacked by terrorists on his watch during his presidency...maybe if he would have, we wouldn't have to go in and kick butt now...those terrorists learned they could get away with it on his watch.

Thank GOD that Bush is president and is doing something about it!

GOD BLESS BUSH!

Answer 8

Impeached. Well, lets see, You have to be guilty, oh thats right you dont believe innocent until proven guilty, thats what courts are for and obviously he hasnt been charged for anything yet....by the time it goes through court, if it ever does, he'll be passing the presidential touch to another republican because the democrats are to busy fighting each other than trying to actually come up with plans to "fix" things.....

Answer 9

Whatever else President Bush is - he is crazy like a fox. No matter how bad he is, he is better than Cheney (who is one scary dude).

On a side note - I find it somewhat amusing that we spent millions of dollars investigating Bill Clinton, to the point of discovering that he did indeed like to have oral sex.

And yet, Bush's conduct (or mis-conduct) has undergone no such scrutiny - and we are going to be facing the consequences of his actions long after we have forgotten the blue dress episode.

Should we impeach Bush? No. But, we better start paying closer attention to who we elect in the future.

Answer 10

Although I loathe Bush and his acts, I don't believe that what he has done deserves impeachment. Also not good for the country. The Clinton impeachment was a disgusting self-serving Republican ploy with no intent other than to affect later elections. It did a lot of harm to our great country.

Answer 11

What has he lied about? WMD?
