I can understand before we had a republican congress, but even they should know he's doing a lousy job up there on the hill. Even if he is part of the same party, you figure someone would catch on to this. Now that we have democrats, i'm sure the House can move to impeach(but wont for political reasons i'm sure), even if it wont pass in the senate. Then again, they may figure he's out of there in two years anyway and feel it best to focus on getting elected then.

Write your senator and congressmen.
I write a letter a week to all of them. There is OVERWHELMING evidence that he lied about going to war. There is no mistake about that.
And that cost human lives, not a lie about a marital affair.

Impeachment is not about whether you think he's done a bad job or not, or even whether he's actually done a bad job or not - it is about indicting, trying and removing the president from office for criminal offenses.
And, to date, there has not been the least bit of evidence that Bush has done anything criminal. He's done stupid things, sure, but that doesn't count.
As for the people who belief that the GOP would act like the Dems and hold firm for party over principle, that is simply an unsupported accusation. It was the GOP who convinced Nixon to resign, because they would have voted for impeachment. If Bush committed a crime, I would expect no less from the current Republicans. But he hasn't, so the point is quite moot.

Lying about going to war isn't an impeachable offense. Read yer Constitution, folks. Clinton was impeached because he committed perjury (lying under oath). If simply lying were grounds for impeachment, then I imagine EVERY PRESIDENT in the past, present, and future would be guilty. Incidentally, impeachment isn't the act of being removed from office, but simply the indictment.

I can't belive you people keep asking this absurd question....
Impeachment is the process of trying a sitting President for a CRIME
No crime has been committed --- thus NO IMPEACHMENT
GET A CLUE

He has NOT committed an impeachable offense. If he had, the Democrats in Congress would have impeached him for sure.
