Why shouldn't "President" Bush be tried for treason?

No reason.. He should. But as we all know, he won't. Too bad for that scooter libby person for being the fall guy. Although he wasnt a saint either. Every Bush supporter should have to go to Iraq and fight his BS war for him.

Because not everyone in the country beleives what is spoon fed to them by the media...we aren't all conspiracy theorists and don't publicly hang people without a trial.  If there was 1 shred of evidence to any of the conspiracy theories or "Bush lied" montra, the man would not be in office, he would be in jail.  Truth matters to many Americans, but that number is dwindling.

To the person who a said about all presidents spy. That is true but its done with approval from congress and judges. Anyway I think most of america wants this idiot impeached! This is a poll from msnbc!\n\nLive Vote  \n Do you believe President Bush's actions justify impeachment?   * 59791 responses  \n \n \n Yes, between the secret spying, the deceptions leading to war and more, there is plenty to justify putting him on trial.\n87%  \n \n No, like any president, he has made a few missteps, but nothing approaching "high crimes and misdemeanors."\n4%  \n \n No, the man has done absolutely nothing wrong. Impeachment would just be a political lynching.\n8%  \n \n I don't know.\n1%

It was not for want of trying that Bush and Blair failed to find a real reason.   To attack Iraq will go down in history as the dumbest move ever.   Sorry - the second dumbest : the first was to take Saddam alive AND PUT HIM ON TRIAL!!   This farcical process matches the one against Slobodan Milosovich at the Hague and is going the same way, with a fairly good- and straight-looking defendant outshining his prosecutors in every way, just as Milosovich did at the Hague, and Goring and Streicher did at Nuremberg (another kangaroo court).

because any bush supporter cannot rely on factual data in a fair debate, so they mirror their heros strategy and send up smoke to distract from a logical discourse. They flood the air with falsehoods and dispersions too numerous to respond to each one individually before the next is cast. It is a noble and patriotic thing to stand up to corruption in our governing bodies. If his last name wasn't Bush he'd be pumping gas instead of starting wars for it.

Actually, tough as this might be to accept there are a number of reasons...\n\n- It has not been proven that he lied\n- It has not been proven that he broke any laws\n\nContrary to conspiracy theories, a republican led congress cannot prevent an impeachment if either of the above occur, or prevent an investigation or judicial hearing should the democrats push for one.\n\nReality, take a deep breath and try to take this in, as we can assume the democrats would drive for this the second they felt they could, it is a fairly safe assumption that President Bush has done nothing that would warrant his impeachment.\n\nSorry to burst your bubble...

You bet, nobody should be above the law, if it is ok for Bush to break the law then it is ok for all of us. He needs to be reigned in someway in his last two years to keep him from doing any more damage to the constitution or the country.

It really isn't..Bush just thinks he can run every country when in reality he is not only the worst president our country has ever had but by far the stupidest...the man can't even put a sentence together for crying out loud! He is a murderer also but wishes to deny he has done anything wrong in his presidency.....The first thing wrong that man did was before he became president...he was born

Because this is a difficult crime to prove.  You have to prove the material was classified, that it had not been declassified by the President, that the person knew the information was classified, and that the person used their position to obtain classified information and then released that information to the media. Futhermore, if he obtained the information from a non-classified source, such a reporter told him, then he could reveal it. The Intelligence Idenities laws are extremely difficult to prove.  That is why no one has been indicted on them. Instead, Libby has been charged with perjury for atlerting his testimony to federal officers.  The chances of getting someone on this are slim, and I think are pretty rare, if its ever happened at all.

No, they should not hold impeachment trials against bush, however, they should let him know they will keep that on the table IN CASE he tries to veto everything Congress tries to pass.

I agree with the second guy. There is no way to charge Bush with a war crime (and I believe that crimes against humanity is a war crime) because of some international legal bullsh'it. I can't remember how it goes since it gets a little complicated, but bottom line, it can't be filed.\n\nGermany's going in the right direction though. They filed criminal charges against Rumsfeld but can't try him. All this is to create a precedent against Bush and his cronies. Good job, Germany.

Vanman8u's answer is case in point:  Bush is de facto guilty (no stated crime, no defense) but due process for terrorists.\n\nWhat a country.

Stand by, they're on their way, Should be interesting how they'll rationalize, minimize, deny, and blame in defense of their criminal leader. Bush and his criminal administration should be put on trial for their crimes against America and humanity.

No, I am not surprised, it is pass the buck time, it should be George Bush that is arrested for conspiracy to commit murder for his illegal war in Iraq. But the foot solder will be the ones that pay the price. Bush will not as he has no morals.

he hasn't done anything illegal, so he can't be impeached.  why is everyone asking this dumbass question?

I don't think waiting it out is the best path to take...If Bush did something illegal, something to deserve impeachment he should be punished. Perhaps his problem is that he's been getting away with things for far too long. Our leaders need to be held accountable.
