Because there have been no laws broken, so he can not be impeached...take a civics course and that will answer your questions about the political process in the US..you can not take a President out of office just because the media does not like them....

Only those who have allegedly committed "treason, bribery, or other high crimes and misdemeanors" may be impeached.
what are high crimes and misdemeanors?
"An impeachable offense is whatever a majority of the House of Representatives considers it to be at a given moment in history."
-Gerald R. Ford
that is a quote he made before Nixon was impeached. You would think that with new scandals happening every week and the huge mistakes made overseas it would at least be mentioned. Maybe everyone thinks Dick Cheney is the greater of two evils. Maybe nobody wants to clean up all the mess.
The American people are not allowing him to go unpunished. They have done just about every non-Violante thing that can be done.
Ether way just look further down the page in a few days. the debate will rage, flow and ebb ultimately we will lose sight of the question.

Because he had numerous legal reasons to do so. Primarily, Saddam had agreed under the cease fire in 1991 to certain conditions. For 12 years, he flaunted, ignored, and violated these terms. Clinton did nothing about it. The UN passed 17 resolutions. Saddam violated them all. The UN did nothing. Bush gave Saddam a final warning and took action.
Secondly, Bush has violated no law.

Uh, what are we to do? Start a revolution?
Like him or not hes gone in 2 years-if the democrats were to try to impeach him chances are his people would stretch out the process to the point that he would be out of office anyways.

98 senators signed off on it, they had the same Intel everyone else had, Bush can't flip flop on it, because the country is at steak, he has sworn an oath! To bad the fair-weather politicians don't have a back bone!

Because quite a number of us went along with it. I'd like to see a nuke strike of Iran as well. If he'd take out the Syrian military with a bombing strike I could live with that as well.
