Even leading republicans are starting to say IF Bush continues with his blazon disregard for the public and the congress' views they may support Impeachment. What are your thoughts on all of this?

ah day doom.. I think.. you need to think before you react. I actually do not support Impeachment as I believe it only hurts the nation.. i did not support it for Clinton, I do not support it now.. but if you would read the article attached you would have seen that this question is about the fact that even Republicans are flirting with the idea. What has this administration done to alienate itself from BOTH of the major parties?

I think congress needs to keep him balanced until his time runs out in office. I think he could be impeached for manipulating intelligence, but it won't happen. After he is out of office I think we will be hearing much more about his many lies, and his stubbornness.

What is impeachable is lying to Congress and obstruction of justice, among other things. The counts on Dictator Dumbya should justly number about 15. James Madison said on the floor of the first Congress in Jun. 1789 that executive "wanton termination" (lying about the reason) of appointed officials who initially needed Congressional confirmation should be a cause for impeachment. Ya think Madison knew a thing or two about the Constitution????

I was against impeachment but now that Bush is blatantly ignoring even other Republicans, I certainly hope they do impeachment procedures. Then impeach Cheney as well, after all, he has been the puppeteer all along, though not the ventriloquist, Cheney certainly can speak better than a 5th grader.

We need to wait. It would be foolish to impeach now for two reasons. One, do you really want Cheney running the White House. Two, why question him when he has the full power of the White House behind him. Its better to wait until he is out of office. Read "The Art of War."

Since when did YOU start listening to LEADING REPUBLICANS?. You need to get your head out of the sand and put your @$$ down out of the air and take a look to see if you can come up with AT LEAST ONE impeachable offense that old GW has committed. It may come as a shock to you and those LEADING REPUBLICANS but "staying the course" is NOT AN IMPEACHABLE OFFENSE. Comprendo?

They have a better chance of being in trouble for overstepping the Constitution which gives the President the right to conduct wars. Not the Congress.

I think you, like all your teenage moronic friends do not know what it takes to get Articles of Impeachment against a President!~!

He ought to be impeached for all the criminal things he's done, and it's about time the repukes came around to the side of right.

Congress is not going to do anything besides put on a show and dance for you and then do what they say they would not do. Nancy Pelosi stripped provision requiring president to seek congress approval for additional funds from war bill.

the president is has only one job. That is to serve the people. Any president that fails to do this one task, should be impeached.
