The subject has been brought up quite a bit over the past few years. Prior to January 2007, it wasn't going to happen, there was no way that the House was going to start impeachment proceedings for anything short of an overt act of treason. The Congress is now in the control of the Democrats, and they could, if they wished start impeachment proceedings, and the charges could be anything they want them to be, since the constitution doesn't really define what an impeachable offense is, other than treason. They know that if they try and impeach the President and charge him with anything but a real crime, they will stand to lose seats in the next election. They also know that even if they pass the articles of impeachment, the President will be acquitted by the Senate unless they can catch him in an overt action of treason that meets the criteria set forth in the Constitution.

Bush will never be impeached. They, or congress, will let him run until the nov 2008 election. If i asked Bush for 1thing it would be to allow the Childrens health care bill. That would of been the best things he's ever done for America. But the only thing he cares about is his war.
He has a lot of " sneaky hidden power" not doing what he says can make some people in government loose their jobs.

It is amazing how tolorant the American public is, isn't it? While its commendable that we will go to any length for peace and sacrifice personal freedoms for safety, it is also amazing how cowardly we can be when it comes to protesting criminal behavior when we see it.
I will feel like I'm finally home when the working masses begin some serious protest against corporate trickery and the arrogant greed of our leadership. The masses just sit back and take it in the **** and allow false advertising and political self promotion to lead us around like bulls with rings in our noses.
The Bush Corporation needs to hit the road for the welfare of all working class Americans.

No further than Clinton I assume, Oh yeah, Clinton did get impeached and disbarred. But most people ignore that.

As far as the law and the Constitution permits, for he must violate one of those in order to be impeached.

BEBE, We will let him go as far as it takes to keep us safe.Here is a little something for you to ponder.
If I knew you and you knew me
If both of us could clearly see,
And with an inner sight devine
The meaning of your heart and mine-
I'm sure that we would differ less
And clasp our hands in friendliness;
Our thoughts would pleasantly agree
If I knew you, and you knew me.
If I knew you and you knew me-
As each one knows his own self,we
Could look each other in the face
And see therein a truer grace.
Life has so many hidden woes,
So many thorns for every rose;
The "why" of things our hearts would see,
If I knew you and you knew me.
Written by a wise man. Nixon Waterman.
And thats all I gota say about that.

That's not going to happen so enough of those type of questions. Haven't you been reading the questions on Y/A? That question has been played to death.
