Impeachable offenses ::::::::::::
1) The now famous Downing Street Memo, along with the testimony of former Treasury Secretary Paul O'Neil constitute direct evidence of a decision by Bush to invade a sovereign foreign nation on entirely specious grounds.
2) The decision to deploy chemical weapons in Fallujah came from Rumsfeld who no doubt covered his *** by receiving assent from Bush to use these banned weapons
3) The decision by Bush to dig up dirt on UN diplomats when the General Assembly was considering his ill-fated war resolution
4) Authorizing torture of POW's - a direct violation of the protocols of the Geneva Convention
5) Holding so called "non-combatant civilians" for an indefinite period of time ,depriving them of their day in court ,acess to counsel, and acess to family members who could plead their cause to the public.
6) Kidnapping so called "terror suspects" , placing them on Rendition Airways, and sending them to countries like Uzbekistan who boil these,untried, unconvicted people alive.
7) foreknowledge of 9/11 by Bush, Rice, and the top Neocons at the Pentagon . The only ones warned were Fmr. SF. Mayor Willie Brown, Salman Rushdie (Via Scotland Yard) and Ariel Sharon, who cancelled his trip to NYC scheduled for the weekend prior to 9/11.
8) Engaging in a massive voter suppression campaign in the state of Ohio to secure a second term by fraudulent means. Such activities carry criminal sanctions as outlined in the Voting Rights Act of 1965.
9) Covering up the involvement of Mossad in 9/11. The fellow that secreted these spies and explosives experts out of country and back into Israel , Michael Chertoff, was promoted from Criminal Division of the Justice Dept to lead the Dept. of Homeland Security.!
10) The attempt to quash the testimony of Sibel Edmonds using the bogus shield of the States Secret Act.
11) Engaging in a sytematic campaign of depriving political dissidents of their 1st ammendment rights to condem Bush administration policy. Protesters are removed out of crowds and summarily placed in jail. The Secret Service, under orders of the President, conduct "Harassment and intimidation Interviews" of anti -Bush political activists.
12) Conspiring with Ken Lay to rip-off the the people of California by creating false energy shortages,thus creating the causus belli for charging energy consumers illegal, confiscatory rates. 13) Conspiring to rig the vote count in the state of Fl. by hacking optical scan machines and E-voting machines and covering up the latter by passing legislation in the state of Fl to prevent post-election examination of E-voting machines.
14) Illegally transferring $700 million from the budget for the war in Afghanistan for war preparations in Iraq in July 2002, without Congressional Approval. This is a Constitutional violation.
15) The "outing" of CIA operative Valerie Plame.

The president can only be impeached for committing a crime. I am not a Bush fan at all. But I am not aware of any crimes he has committed. Arguably his warrantless wiretapping violated the constitution--so maybe they could do that. Iraq was voted on by the congress and overwhelmingly approved--as wrong as it is that is not a crime.
Being stupid is not a crime.
Of course, the fact that the Republicans have controlled Congress prevents any impeachment. If the Democrats do regain Congress it is possible there might be movement along these lines.
But suppose they succeeded in impeaching him and then removing him from office. How would you like it when Dick Cheney became president?

no thanks dave. you fabricated another story. if you had read the entire washington post story you would have realized the chemicals were placed after the Saddam takedown.
Boylan said the suspected lab was new, dating from some time after the U.S.-led invasion of Iraq in 2003. The Bush administration cited evidence that Saddam Hussein's government was manufacturing weapons of mass destruction as the main justification for the invasion. No such weapons or factories were found.
The nuclear material was secured from Iraq's former nuclear research facility and airlifted out of the country to an undisclosed Energy Department laboratory for further analysis, the department said in a statement.
Saddam never had these. Some aren't even WMD.
Go read the Iraq Survey Group's statement and learn about Spider Marks. The truth comes from them and not your pseudo stories.

i think that the Atlanta Hawks will win the NBA Champinship formerly George W. Bush is impeached and since the Hawks are actually not regularly occurring to win the NBA Championship every time quickly, Bush heavily isn't impeached every time quickly and despite if the Hawks win the NBA Championshp in 2008, it somewhat is going to be too previous as a results of question Bush as a results of 2008 Presidential Election.

Good question!
I think he is too protected by the powers that be. If the Dems get the chance after the election, I look for him to be impeached. I would certainly support it-and Cheney, too-so we don't jump out of the frying pan into a pile of sh^%t !!
He is the worst president in recent memory- and that takes some doing!
I can't even stand the sound of his voice--it's like chalk on a blackboard, filled with nonsense.

And I though WAR CRIMES was a crime :( my bad.
War crimes are defined in the statute that established the International Criminal Court, which includes:
Grave breaches of the Geneva Conventions, such as:
Wilful killing, or causing great suffering or serious injury to body or health
1. Torture or inhuman treatment
2. Unlawful wanton destruction or appropriation of property
3. Forcing a prisoner of war to serve in the forces of a hostile power
4. Depriving a prisoner of war of a fair trial
5. Unlawful deportation, confinement or transfer
6. Taking hostages
U may also add
1. Participation in a common plan of conspiracy for the accomplishment of crimes against peace
2. Planning, initiating and waging wars of aggression and other crimes against peace
Pretty sure some were hanged for these crimes. Oh well ;)

It'll happen - unfortunately, LATER rather than sooner. Goddess knows, she's already done more damage than I thought was humanly possible for someone with the intelligence of an amoeba - but Cheney and Rumsfeld are really running the show - and those gals are TRULY dangerous!!!

Simply answered once again
HE HAS COMMITTED NO CRIME... HE HAS DONE NOTHING THAT IS AN IMPEACHABLE OFFENSE....
Ignorant libs need to go back and read on what impeachment is about
*******
What are you 13????
Bush has committed NO murder.....
There were NO lies about WoMD... in FACT, there WERE WoMD found, but your little leftist media likes to bury that down....
Found in Iraq:
* 1.77 metric tons of enriched uranium
* 1,500 gallons of chemical weapons agents
* 17 chemical warheads containing cyclosarin (a nerve agent five times more deadly than sarin gas)
* Over 1,000 radioactive materials in powdered form meant for dispersal over populated areas
* Roadside bombs loaded with mustard and “conventional” sarin gas, assembled in binary chemical projectiles for maximum potency

Vote tampering?? Where??? The votes were recounted properly in every case. It was your DEMS trying to thwart the process and win via the judicial system and not the vote count. It was the DEMS under suspicion with voter fraud with dead people and illegal aliens voting....
Terrorists are "innocents"??? Give me a damn break
Brainwashing??? Be serious... get out of high school and learn a little something about reality and real life
GENEVA CONVENTION IS FOR NATIONALLY SPONSORED MILITARY PERSONNEL.... the terrorists are not fighting under the flag of any country. They are NON-UNIFORMED COMBATANTS or TERRORISTS... they do NOT fall under the Geneva Convention.... LEARN a little before spouting off at the keyboard

The republicans who have aided and abetted all his criminal activities are blocking any such move hopefully that will change when the Dem's take over the house in November. Then finally we can get some justice and undo the damage he has done to the Constitution and all govt institutions.

He hasn't done anything the Senate thinks is worth impeaching. Bush also has a lot of friends in high places.
