I think his VP should be thrown in jail for manipulating intelligence to decieve congress and get a 'yes' vote to go to war, not to mention his war profiteering with Haliburton.

Crimes against humanity and of being a war criminal in an international war tribunal. (Wish!)

And oh yeah! Clinton WAS IMPEACHED, but later acquitted. Impeachment is the "process" of charging a government official, such as the president or the Supreme Court Chief Justice, immune to ordinary prosecution, to be stripped of the title making him so immune. If found guilty, or at least with probable cause in some countries, he would be then removed from his office and demoted to being an ordinary citizen subject to prosecution.

So until Bush is removed from office either by ending his term or being impeached and convicted in such proceedings, you can't charge him with anything.

afaik, George W. Bush has committed no heinious crimes at all. As for the process of impeaching a President, if you watched the actions surrounding Monica-gate a decade ago, you already know them.

Personally, I think you're simply provoking a response, likely out of personal pique. Your life will be much easier if you let go of that issue.

Here's a few of Bush's crimes: He had no idea of Sunnies
& Shiites untill after he bombed Iraq, he tried to get Ascroft
to sign a paper giving him unlimited power while Ascroft
was in the hospital, under medication & he's responsible
for the deaths of millions of innocent Iraqi's who had nothing
to with 9/11, not to mention responsibility for the deaths
for our 3400+ young people he sent to war for his
personal gain.

I think the best action that can be taken against this creep,
at this point, would be for several physicans of different
specialities to get together & declare him incompetent.
His words & actions are proving that he's totally clueless
& has no business being in charge of our country.
Seriously, the mere fact that Bush has created a 'War
Czar', really means he's willingly given up his title as
Commander in Chief.

Unfortunately, Bush hasn't really broken the laws to where it can be proven in court. Grant it, he lied to the American people about "weapons of mass destruction" and his "war presidency" has killed many innocent people. After 9/11, Bush declared war on terroism. But, in my opinion, Saddam was not a terroist and to my knowledge Bin Laden has never been caught. Of course, Laden's family was flown out of NY right after 9/11 happened.

Don't get me wrong, I'm not saying Saddam was "Mr. Innocent". But he was a dictator protecting his little part of his kingdom. If any American citizen rose up against our government then our gov't. would retaliate just as Saddam did trying to hold on to his dictatorship.

We don't belong in Iraq, we are not the world police, God help us in bringing our husbands and wives, fathers and mothers, sons and daughters home (not in a body bag).

Supreme Court Justice Robert L. Jackson, Chief U.S. Prosecutor at the Nuremburg Tribunal stated the following:

"We must make clear to the Germans that the wrong for which their fallen leaders are on trial is not that they lost the war but that they started it. And we must not allow ourselves to be drawn into a trial of the causes of the war, for our position is that no grievances or policies will justify resort to aggressive war. It is utterly renounced and condemned as an instrument of policy."

According to our own Supreme Court, President Bush is a war criminal and should be tried for his crimes against humanity for starting an unjustified aggressive war without legal backing.

Afghanistan can be justified as relatiatory for the September 11th bombings. Iraq cannot be so justified. I dare anyone to attempt to do so --- for you cannot.

In criminal concerns, the President of america(POTUS) can't be tried in court docket because of the fact the president. the two the president could be faraway from place of work for the duration of the impeachment technique and then tried, or the chrges might would desire to attend till his term expires. in accordance to the ideal court docket in 1997, the POTUS would be taken to civil court docket on concerns occurring in the past he took place of work. The POTUS can't, besides the undeniable fact that, be sued for something occurring in the time of his presidency. So, no, you won't be able to sue absolutely everyone, everywhere, at every time.

Congress cannot impeach a sitting President for stupidity, ignorance and looking like a chimp; only high crimes and misdemeanors.
