Does anyone else want Bush impeached? Why hasn't it happened yet?!?

Impeachment is not possible. Since essentially it is a partisan political process, one really cannot expect to see it when all three branches of government are Republican controlled, (whether you feel it the right thing to do or not.)

Yes and serious action has already been taken.\n\nReasons for impeachment:\n\nBush lied to Congress and the American public about the reasons for invading Iraq, conducted illegal wiretaps of American citizens, violated International Law by invading a sovereign country for illegal purposes, violated the Geneva Convention by torturing prisoners of war, held prisoners without formal charges and without legal representation, used government funds for domestic political propaganda, the Bush team used uniformed military personnel for Republican party political purposes, was negligent in his slow response to help victims of Hurricane Katrina, and shows contempt towards our Constitution and our democratic ideals.\n\nI do believe in proceeding with the impeachment process.  Congressman John Conyers and 29 cosponsors have already introduced a bill to form an impeachment panel.  After the November elections and the sweep of Democratic victories in recent special elections, support for impeachment will grow ever stronger.\n\nTrue, impeaching Bush would allow his brain, Cheney, to become president, but by that time the damage to the Republican Party would be irreversible. \n\nFor those who aren’t clear on the grounds for impeachment, please go to the link posted

Haven't heard it yet, but I think Bush needs to be impeached and called to account for all the lies he's been caught in as well as his unwillingness to secure our borders after 9/11.  And now it looks like he's planning on nuking Iran.  What a war mongering, greedy idiot we have for president.  All I can say is I didn't vote for him.

He's a horrible president.  He should be impeached for the following reasons:\n\nThe case for the impeachment of George W. Bush is made by a clear deductive argument: Any president who breaks the law and desecrates the Constituiton should be impeached. President Bush breaks the law and desecrates the Constitution. Therefore, President Bush should be impeached.\n\nConsider the evidence: The Eighth Amendment prohibits "cruel and unusual punishment," but Bush approves of extraordinary rendition, which allows suspects to be sent off to foreign regimes that condone cruel, inhumane, and degrading treatment. He thus circumvents the Geneva Conventions forbdding torture.\n\nThe Fifth Amendment guarantees "due process of law," but the secret prisons operated overseas by the CIA totally ignore the "presumption of innocence," and thus run roughshod over this right.\n\nThe Fourth Amendment prohibits "unreasonable search and seizure" unless there is "probable cause," but Bush authorizes electronic eavesdropping on all American citizens without the court-approved warrants required for domestic spying. He also violates the "separation of powers" principle when he commands the executive branch of the government to operate secretly, and evade the checks and balances of the judicial branch.\n\nThe Fourth Amendment guarantees "the right of the people to be secure in their papers and effects," but Bush's reauthorization of the Patriot Act --- which allows the government access to medical and library records --- makes a shambles of this right to privacy. Since an Orvellian Big Brother might be spying on you, you had better not borrow Marx's "Communist Manifesto" from the local library.\n\nThe Sixth Amendment guarantees the right of the accused to "a speedy trial" and the right "to be informed of the nature and cause of the accusation," but the prisoners at Guantanamo Bay are held for indefinite periods without legal representation, and without even hearing the charges against them.\n\nThe First Amendment ensures freedom of the press, but Bush mocks that freedom when he denounces the media as "shameful" for reporting his illigal domestic surveillance, and when he threatens an investigation of The New York Times.\n\nIf it is self-evident that any president who desecrates the Constitution should be impeached, and if it is proved by factual evidence that President Bush desecrates the Constitution, then it is inevitably true that he should be impeached.

The Bush administration, in collusion with the most evil, corrupt and incompetent U.S. Congress in history, deserves to be impeached, or tried for high treason and crimes against humanity. If convicted, the should face a public firing squad.\nThe Republicans impeached Clinton for a helluva lot less than what George Bush, Big Dick Cheney, and Don Rumsfeld have done! Consider what they've done since 2000:\n\n1. Illegally and unconstituionally invaded another sovereign nation that did not provoke, threaten or attack the U.S.A.;\n2. Massacred tens of thousands of Iraqi citiens, including innocent elderly, children and women, for no justifiable reason;\n3. Initiated failed economic policies that have put American taxpayers trillions of dollars in debt, and will almost certainly create a severe economic depression or recession once they're out of office;\n4. Scared other countries into believing their only defense against this new "evil empire" - the United States of America - is to develop their own nuclear weapons;\n5. Tarnished America's reputation as a world leader and global peacekeeper;\n6. Dismantled environmental laws and regulations designed to protect the world's fragile ecosystem against permanent destruction and preserve the ecological balance necessary in nature for all of us (plants and animals) to survive;\n7. Turned America into a police state wherein citizens are presumed guilty until proven innocent;\n8. Lied to the American public and leaked information to the press whenever it conveniently fits their agendas;\n9. Run ripshod over the U.S. Constitution, assuming they are above the law of the land;\n10. Killed more than 2,500 U.S. soldiers (so far).\n\nThere are only two reasons Bush invaded Iraq: 1) to get even with Hussein for humiliating his daddy during Desert Storm; and 2) because Big Dick Cheney wants all that oil swimming underneath Iraq's sands so that he and his Halliburton buddies can get richer and richer and richer.\n\nPrediction: There will be NO WITHDRAWAL OF U.S.TROOPS until Cheney has a rock-solid, iron-clad arrangement in place, in collusion with the new Iraqi puppet government, to steal all of Iraq's oil.\n\nSurely Satan has reserved a special oil-soaked corner of Hell for these evil cockroaches, where they can spend their eternal damnation blaming each other for the mess they made of this world.\n\nCheck out the new blog book: BUSHWACKER!\nwww.blogger.com\nhttp://al-aback.blogspot.com\n\nThomas Jefferson once said: "The tree of liberty must be refreshed from time to time with the blood of patriots and tyrants." That time is NOW. It's time for "We the People,,," to get off the couch, put down the remote, and take up arms against an oppressive government that is not working in service toward its citizenry. \n\nBut, as long as politicians keep us distracted with trivial issues like flag-burning amendments, gay marriage amendments, and a MilqueToast immigration bill, they can continue to suck off the taxpayers' teats, enriching themselves and ruining the nation.\n\nMeanwhile, most Americans are most concerned about Britney Spears' new baby; maxxed-out credit cards; $3.00-per-gallon fuel for their $60,000 SUVs; "low prices -everyday" at WalMart, mostly for junk we don't need; and the latest rankings of their favorite baseball team. \n\nIt's time to take up arms against our scumbag politicians who have raped this country of its greatness and destroyed the fiber of the American people. Politicians play "Robin Hood in Reverse" as they steal from the poor to give to the rich, who - in turn - make generous (if not illegal) campaign contributions to keep them in office. Meanwhile, they neglect the needs of America's poor, homeless, aged, sick, disadvantaged, disabled, underprivileged, and hungry. \n\nIf we throw the crooked Republicans out, we elect the crooked Democrats. Only a full-blown Revolution will chang

yes, he should be impeached.  The reason why he hasn't been is due to the fact that he is a powerful businessman(corporate owner) and also that Republicans do a better job supporting each other and sticking together.  But why would Bush waste and year a half's time preaching to the public about taking Saddam down when 75% of 9/11 terrorists were Saudis and Bin Laden is a Saudi?  After the 9/11 attacks happened, 26 members of the Bin-Laden family were allowed to get on a flight out of the country.  It's just like this:  Bush and his father are very close business partners with the Saudie.  They have given the Bush family billions of dollars towards their business efforts(oil).   Taking acttion against an allied nation, regardless of the reason would have ruined our reputation in the world, and since 7% of economy is owned by Saudis, it would have been a devastating blow to the economy.  So Iraq was the next best thing.

I don't want Bush impeached.  The only reason I don't want Bush impeached is because if he were impeached, we'd be stuck with his vice president CHENEY.  Cheney is like the evil puppet master behind Bush, he's even worse!

Bush & co., isn't it time for a good impeachment? Go away people, do the world a favor!

Well, there are a few variables that would need to come into play if that were to happen.\nFirst of all, YES, HE DID LIE UNDER OATH:  the oath he took when "sworn in" as president.. so, I don't want any more comparisons to "Clinton lied, bush didn't".. bacause, again bush has lied to all of us!\nHowever, in order for this (UGH) president to be impeached, we will have to have a democratic (or liberal) congress.  If this does finally take place in November, the boy may be impeached, after all!\nMe; I'm all for it!  \nAnd, by the way:  Nixon was impeached during Viet Nam.. so, yes;  we can impeach him even though we are at war!  Of course, the boy did say the war was over about 3 years ago.. hmmm... rmeember the whole "Mission Accomplished" fiasco?

I sure hope they do!! I'm organizing a party already for when he's impeached. I hope they broadcast his execution, too.

Hells yeah. Dubya is widely considered to be the absolute worst president ever. The only reason that he has not been impeached is because he and his right-wing-nut-jobs control the senate. However, with democrats expected to sweep the elections this fall, there is plenty of hope in getting Dubya and his minions out of office and brought to justice. His list of impeachable crimes just keeps getting longer!

I believe it is because of personal hate and spite that the democrats want President Bush impeached!!! There is no proof of any crimes committed or rules broken by Bush!!!And the Pelosi theory is not that far fetched!!!!!

Yes, I do have to agree many of these polls aren't ran fairly in respect for the Republicans.\nAlthough I don't think he should be impeached. Just so we can watch him attempt to fix what he's done.\nBut remember Rumsfield was fired to take the blame for the war. Now people are going after Cheney. After he's gone all that's left is Bush. And then I think he'll be a lot closer to being impeached.

He can't, Bush is in his last of two terms now. George Bush will be out of office in 08, unless America impeaches him from office. I really wouldn't mind seeing that happen.
