Why hasn't Bush been Impeached yet?

Question

Wow I mean every day I hear bad things about Bush and Ive seen a lot of bad things on the news about him. I have even seen a video of him flipping a bird to the nation he said it was his "one finger victory sulut" I mean I cant believe ppl were dumb enough to reelect him but why hasnt he been empeached yet if everyone thinks hes so bad?

Presedent Clinton was better than bush will ever be. True he had sex but come on ppl he did so much more for or economy then this whak job ever has

Answer 1

GREAT QUESTION. This idiot should of been impeached a long time ago. He is cause of so many young men and wemon dying in Iraq. I do not understand how people like this moron. He messed up this country, and ruined the name of America. He should also be charged with war crimes.

Answer 2

A president can be impeached only for "high crimes and misdemeanors." This includes lying under oath to a grand jury, but does not include being unpopular, or making honest mistakes.

President Bush has made some serious errors in judgment, and has made some poor strategic decisions. It appears he was wrong when he agreed with Bill Clinton, Hillary Clinton, John Kerry, Kofi Annan, and many, many others, when he said that Saddam had large stockpiles of WMDs. However, he acted in good faith, based upon the information available.

Nothing he has done has been impeachable. Sorry, Liberals, that's the simple truth.

Answer 3

Laf, and if you belive 1/2 of what you see in the media, your a bigger fool that you think Bush is.
The man has carried this nation through Katrina, 911, Iraq war and the domestic issues at large, and the economy is still growing, the jobless rate is still down.
When are you people on the left going to realize that things are as bad as your candidates and the media are telling you ? Didn't High School teach you about finding out the facts ? or the scruples of not believing people that have been proven to lie to you ? How about doing some research and not believing what your told ? Sure, you can point at times in his presidency and say...he didn't do that good of a job. You can point to a few and say he might have been a little incompetant. But this is a president that took on many issues he didn't have to. he could have just kicked them down to the next president as many of them do.
He tried to fix social security, your left talked it down then shot it down. He tried to work with the Demo's at the beginning of his presidency, and if you look over the video coverage, you will see Nancy Peloski claiming to stand side by side with the president, and Hilary supporting the war as well as giving 5 other reasons for it besides WMD, yet your short term memory only seems to hold Bush accountable. Not your own people who have lied on the floor of the senate, have flip flopped so many times I can't tell who supports what, and what is the scaries....they continue to poll everything. So they have no convictions, not values, no solid stand, they are willing to flop in a second depending on the majority...and the majority isn't always right. Sometimes hard decisions need to be made and you can't just take a poll and go with the crowd.

Answer 4

Well, at least he didn't have sex with an intern and deny it in front of the nation. Does anyone remember that Clinton was impeached? All I see is him being praised. Also, lets not forget that Bush did bring down a tyrant that had been terrorizing the people in his country for 30 years. Do some research and find out exactly what Sadam did to his people. It's easy to believe all the "truths" that are fed to you by the media, but there is plenty of information out there that would horrify you that never makes it into the newscasts.

Answer 5

What flavor was that kool-aid? Must be laced with acid the trip your on! Clinton was better?, give me a break. Clinton had one thing on his side Bush doesn't, the media. The media loved Clinton and couldn't say anything bad without offsetting with good to the ratio of 20:1.

He hasn't been impeached because the Congress can't get past the "high crimes and misdemeanors" part since he has committed no crimes.

Answer 6

It seems like all you know of is what the media tells you. The main goal of the press is to make leaders look bad. I mean come on, would the president really flip off the nation? That video was created by some computer geeks with nothing better to do. The press will make you parinoid of everything if you always believe it.

Answer 7

bill Clinton became impeached (by the domicile) after being convicted of perjury and obstruction of justice, the two impeachable crimes. No impeachable crimes have been delivered against George W. Bush on a similar time as in workplace. thankfully our judicial equipment does no longer understand "alleged" unlawful strikes, scandals, and so on., and truly relies upon upon actually information, tangible information, and robust testimony in its seach for fact. in any different case the harmless would be wrongfully convicted exponentially.

Answer 8

Bush has committed no crimes he cannot be impeached.

Where on earth did you get BS stories about Bush pushing that kind of bill through congress. You probably need to stay off the ultra liberal web sites. That is a ridiculous lie, how could you even think it might be true?

Answer 9

1993 WTC Bombings, 1998 African Embassy Bombings, 2000 USS Cole Bombing

3 times Osama was known to have attacked us when Clinton could have retaliated. What did Clinton do? After the WTC bombings he did nothing to look for Osama. But Osama wasn't a big time player at the time, so I'll give him that one. After the 1998 bombings, what did Clinton do? He bombed a chemical plant that he thought had links to Al Qeda but turned out to be completely innocent. After the USS Cole attack what did he do? ABSOLUTELY NOTHING.

Answer 10

The lack of testicular fortitude in Congress might have to do with it. Plus, it's more important to impeach Cheney. Also, some might feel if Bush is impeached, the democrats could loose the election, and the Republicans sure as hell wont impeach him.
