Question

Here is a real flipper
http://thinkprogress.org/2007/01/08/bush...

Answer 1

I think there should be serious consideration to do so!This Predident is out of control! He has a dangerous attitude! He went to war on what he says on false advise on Iraq! Remember we were hit under his watch! He ignored reports that was givenhim on that subject. He ignores anyone that dares to disagree with him.. ! In any rate will see what he has to say tonight and hear his reasoning!

Answer 2

A: to impeach is to accuse, not to convict. Bill Clinton WAS impeached.
B: we need someone in high places to stand for right, even if the spineless congress won't finally do the right thing.
C: Bush took an oath to support the Constitution, and many of his actions since then (wiretapping without a warrant, torture, invading a non-belligerent country, refusing to guard our borders, or uphold the law, establishing a police state with FEMA etc. -for a short list) violate that constitution.
D: I certainly would hate to have "President Dick Cheney" But hey, impeach him too at the same time, or first, like they did to Spiro Agnew.
E:Again we have to pursue righteousness, and condemn evil. Then let the Almighty take care of some of the details.
F:If Bush were impeached now (see A) the trial would probably drag on to the next election anyway, and as a good side effect-
G: if congress were tied up in impeachment hearings they probably would do less damage to our rights and freedoms than they otherwise would.

Answer 3

Bill Clinton should have been impeached for lying to the American people under oath. Any other person who lied to a grand jury would have served jail time. Bush hasn;t done anything illegal. He took the information given and acted on it. Thank God there haven't been any more terrorist attacks on us because they've all been stopped. Also, remember that all the liberals and Democrats voted to go to war, too, not just Bush. It's time for all of them to stand up and take some of the heat not just Bush. Even Nixon was pardoned and he was a liar, too.

Answer 4

Not anymore than Ted Kennedy or Howard Dean. Some of the answers so far seem to think that law has been broken buy the president but, facts are clear. Whether it's FISA or his acts as a war time president all direction from the White House that deals with terrorism has been legal.

People can say it's illegal but in reality every challenge on law with respect to the executive branch has been approved, overturned or dropped.

What seems to be wrong is the flip flop buy politicians that takes place daily. One example would be Nancy Pelosi stating that the troop strength should be increased then with out any warning, she is the leader in the fight to pull out of Iraq.

Nothing normal will ever happen in Washinhton DC as long as we continue to vote in career politicians. Term limits are the only way we can survive the cronyism, graft and good old boy syndrome in politics.

Impeach them all!

Answer 5

For what? Volunteering for 8 years of the most extreme stress anyone could endure? Subjecting himself and his family to constant guard for the rest of their lives? Taking a stand for what he believes is best for the country, regardless of how it reflects on him personally?

That isn't even a good question, it's just a rhetoric one to give the Leftist loons a chance to spew their psychotic bile against the president.

I thought Clinton was crooked and slimy, but I didn't even believe he should have undergone impeachment proceedings. I thought it should have been held until he was out of office. I never believed it was good to make our infighting or dirty laundry the highlight of the news from America. Seeing "that woman, Miss Lewinsky", plastered all over the papers every day was bad enough.

But it seems that everyone is concerned about "party power" these days, and not what is good for the country. Bush is the only one who has seemed to care for a very long time. His decisions might not all be perfect, but I believe he honestly does his best for the country.

Answer 6

I don't think he should be investigated, I think there is no wrongdoing there is no evidence, but I am sure that a thorough investigation would be a great way to wast our money. I also think that he has not violated his oath of office to uphold the Constitution and has not violated any rights of the citizens by altering the constitution to include violating personal privacy, and right to due process. These liberals hacks should not be tolerated plug you ears and turn from stupidity.

Answerman there is a button that does spell check.

Answer 7

No I don't. Bill Clinton lied under oath and he was not impeached. Assuming Bush "lied" about the war, like the majority of Democrats and/or Liberals claim, why should there be a double standard? If a Republican lies, we should impeach him? But if a Democrat lies, we can let it slide?

I don't believe Bush lied by the way. I support our troops 100%. They're over there dying for you and for me, so that we can have our freedoms...like writing questions such as "Should Bush be impeached?" on this Yahoo board. Go ahead and give my answer a thumbs down Liberals. I don't care what you think of me or the president. I am however ashamed of how our troops perceive your ungrateful statements and actions.

Answer 8

He hasn't committed a provable impeachable offense. Sure, he's reasoning for going into Iraq was flawed. But whether that be faulty or manufactured intelligence, there's no proof of either. You can't impeach him without proof. And as far as privacy rights, remember, the Patriot Act passed congress with resounding approval. So he's not the only one to blame for that. And as much as I think he's a completely useless president, I would not support impeachment without just and provable cause.

Answer 9

While there can be no doubt he lied to the citizens of this country (and the world) to start a war, has shredded the inferred rights to privacy for US citizens, has at least allowed if not encouraged torture, and continues to pour human fodder into the grinding machine of Iraq I am still nervous about the idea of impeachment. Vice President Dick Cheney is someone I never want to see as President.

Sadly, President Bush had a very complacant Congress (both parties) back him through many of the above mentioned acts.

Answer 10

I think he should be investigated, I think there is wrongdoing but I have no evidence, but I am sure that a thourgh investigation would be able to follow the money trail right back to the highest office's in the land and in particular the president. I also think that he has violated his oath of office to uphold the constitiution and has violated some of the rights of the citizens by altering the constitution to include violating personal privacy, and right to due process. These should not be tolerated if found to be true.
