Answer 1

The President, Vice President and all civil Officers of the United States, shall be removed from Office on Impeachment for, and Conviction of, Treason, Bribery, or other high Crimes and Misdemeanors. - - ARTICLE II, SECTION 4 OF THE CONSTITUTION OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA

President George W. Bush, Vice President Richard B. Cheney, Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice, and Attorney General Alberto Gonzales have committed violations and subversions of the Constitution of the United States of America in an attempt to carry out with impunity crimes against peace and humanity and war crimes and deprivations of the civil rights of the people of the United States and other nations, by assuming powers of an imperial executive unaccountable to law and usurping powers of the Congress, the Judiciary and those reserved to the people of the United States, by the following acts:
1) Seizing power to wage wars of aggression in defiance of the U.S. Constitution, the U.N. Charter and the rule of law; carrying out a massive assault on and occupation of Iraq, a country that was not threatening the United States, resulting in the death and maiming of hundereds of thousands of Iraqis, and thousands of U.S. G.I.s.

5) Threatening the independence and sovereignty of Iraq by belligerently changing its government by force and assaulting Iraq in a war of aggression.

6) Authorizing, ordering and condoning assassinations, summary executions, kidnaping, secret and other illegal detentions of individuals, torture and physical and psychological coercion of prisoners to obtain false statements concerning acts and intentions on governments and individuals and violating within the United States, and by authorizing U.S. forces and agents elsewhere, the rights of individuals under the First, Fourth, Fifth, Sixth and Eighth Amendments to the Constitution of the United States, the Universal Declaration of Human Rights, and the International Covenant on Civil and Political Rights.

7) Making, ordering and condoning false statements and propaganda about the conduct of foreign governments and individuals and acts by U.S. government personnel; manipulating the media and foreign governments with false information; concealing information vital to public discussion and informed judgment concerning acts, intentions and possession, or efforts to obtain weapons of mass destruction in order to falsely create a climate of fear and destroy opposition to U.S. wars of aggression and first strike attacks.

8) Violations and subversions of the Charter of the United Nations and international law, both a part of the "Supreme Law of the land" under Article VI, paragraph 2, of the Constitution, in an attempt to commit with impunity crimes against peace and humanity and war crimes in wars and threats of aggression against Afghanistan, Iraq and others and usurping powers of the United Nations and the peoples of its nations by bribery, coercion and other corrupt acts and by rejecting treaties, committing treaty violations, and frustrating compliance with treaties in order to destroy any means by which international law and institutions can prevent, affect, or adjudicate the exercise of U.S. military and economic power against the international community.

9) Acting to strip United States citizens of their constitutional and human rights, ordering indefinite detention of citizens, without access to counsel, without charge, and without opportunity to appear before a civil judicial officer to challenge the detention, based solely on the discretionary designation by the Executive of a citizen as an "enemy combatant."

10) Ordering indefinite detention of non-citizens in the United States and elsewhere, and without charge, at the discretionary designation of the Attorney General or the Secretary of Defense.

11) Ordering and authorizing the Attorney General to override judicial orders of release of detainees under INS jurisdiction, even where the judicial officer after full hearing determines a detainee is wrongfully held by the government.

12) Authorizing secret military tribunals and summary execution of persons who are not citizens who are designated solely at the discretion of the Executive who acts as indicting official, prosecutor and as the only avenue of appellate relief.

13) Refusing to provide public disclosure of the identities and locations of persons who have been arrested, detained and imprisoned by the U.S. government in the United States, including in response to Congressional inquiry.

14) Use of secret arrests of persons within the United States and elsewhere and denial of the right to public trials.

15) Authorizing the monitoring of confidential attorney-client privileged communications by the government, even in the absence of a court order and even where an incarcerated person has not been charged with a crime.

16) Ordering and authorizing the seizure of assets of persons in the United States, prior to hearing or trial, for lawful or innocent association with any entity that at the discretionary designation of the Executive has been deemed "terrorist."

17) Engaging in criminal neglect in the aftermath of Hurricane Katrina, depriving thousands of people in Louisiana, Mississippi and other Gulf States of urgently needed support, causing mass suffering and unnecessary loss of life.

18) Institutionalization of racial and religious profiling and authorization of domestic spying by federal law enforcement on persons based on their engagement in noncriminal religious and political activity.

19) Refusal to provide information and records necessary and appropriate for the constitutional right of legislative oversight of executive functions.

20) Rejecting treaties protective of peace and human rights and abrogation of the obligations of the United States under, and withdrawal from, international treaties and obligations without consent of the legislative branch, and including termination of the ABM treaty between the United States and Russia, and rescission of the authorizing signature from the Treaty of Rome which served as the basis for the International Criminal Court.

May God Bless America!

Answer 2

You need to research the facts & you will see George Bush is doing the right thing. No human being deserved the atrocities Saddam inflicted on them. He was an extremely brutal dictator & a sadist to say the least & that's being too nice! He had weapons of mass destruction & if you do some good research you will discover that for yourself. Iraq was also a safe haven for terrorists as well. Thank your lucky stars you are where you are & don't have to worry about torture, death, etc. Saddam killed by the millions & found pleasure in it. The world is a much better place without him. It's too bad the war couldn't have been won in a shorter time. Maybe people would not have been so outraged. War is hell & it costs a lot of money & lives unfortunately. The USA believes in freedom & justice for all no matter what the cost. I'm very proud & lucky to be an American. You should be proud as well. We are all human beings & should look out for one another. Run for President if you think you can do better. You may get elected if you are worthy. You won't see George Bush torturing people to death. Bill is not worth commenting on. Sorry, but that's my humble opinion. The Starr report sure blew a lot of money & the whole country got hosed on that fiasco.

Answer 3

Well 3000 people died (you know 9/11) because Clinton was too busy getting a little "oral" action, then covering it up, then lying about it, and then spending the last three years he was in office answering all the things he had done...ummm...that is a lot of people...he committed a crime...remember he was dis-bared for it...or where you like 10 during that time...for a President to be impeached he has to have committed a real crime, not one that is made up by the media and people on the Internet...then you'll say, "...Bush lied to Congress..." I guess all the Liberal who saw the same Intel that your boy Clinton, I mean Hillary, lied too? If anyone has lied to Congress it was John Kerry...what are you like 15? You need to go take a Civics or a Political Science class, then come back a re-read your question...

Answer 4

I see you spout the demo mantra, can't think for yourself? What are going to impeach him on???? He hasn't done anything impeachable or the Demo congress would have been on it by now, but nope they don't want to commit political suicide. Hey I have never liked Clinton (much less that shrew of a wife) but if he can get a little head in office, go for it!

Answer 5

So are you saying that Bush did it alone? That Bush was the only one who voted for the war in Iraq? Why stop at impeaching bush? You would also have to impeach 95% of congress because they all voted for that too.

Answer 6

The problem is, that there is a long line of people behind him that would be just as bad if they were put into office, in the case that he were impeached. Cheney and Rice are good examples of this.

Answer 7

As a card donning liberal, i might say NO. enable's shop him. i do no longer think of the yank individuals are completely disappointed with him yet. he would be completed and we are able to stick a fork in him in 2 years - if we live to tell the story . with any success Republicans would be pariahs for some years yet to return after this fool of a failure president is thru together with his tenure.

Answer 8
