Don't be the first to talk s*** about drilling for oil, and then drive your mommy's SUV to the mall.  Your question has two conflicts, you can't have cheap oil prices and not drill for it somewhere.

Well I agree that the ballot box is the answer...however well written letters to Senators, Congressmen, and other political figures asking for impeachment on the grounds of blatant lyiing to the public would be good.  Problem is that people have bought into the whitewash job his adminsitration has done on the Iraq war and don't believe he lied.  That's why there are so few of us that realize Bush is nuts and his governance of us is seriously flawed and write to say so, but are told we're unpatriotic and that we'er unsupportive.  I have to be unsupportive when I don't agree with what is going on so does that make me unpartirotic?  What ever happened to the freedom to respectfully question authority/government?

I don't know why he hasn't been impeached yet, except for the total lameness of the Democrats. Imagine what the Republicans would have done to Clinton if he had done the things Bush has:\n1. Totally wrong about WMDs (I'm being charitable here, I actually think he lied through his teeth).\n2. Sanctioned torture.\n3. Sanctioned kidnapping of foreign citizens.\n4. Established secret prisons outside the US so he could torture the kidnapped foreign nationals.\n5. Established public prisons like Abu Ghraib and Guantanamo to hold people without trial, apparently forever.\n6. Used the NSA to spy on American citizens, contrary to law and the Constitution he swore to uphold.\n7. Lie about EVERY SINGLE ONE of the points above.\n\nHis claim: "I talk to God." I am sure he's talking to SOMEONE, but I don't think God told him to do all that.

Yes it is time for Bush to step down, unfortunately our system does not work that way, but people have lost confidence in his ability to lead. His popularity has dropped to 29%. We will have an election in November that could change things. If the democrats can get a majority in either chamber then there is a possibility that he will be impeached. His leadership will certainly be challenged at best.

First, a member of the House of Representatives has to introduce a bill to form an impeachment panel.   This has already been done; the bill has been presented by Democratic Congressman John Conyers and has 29 co-sponsors. \n\nIf there’s enough support to form the panel, the panel conducts an investigation to see if there is grounds for impeachment.\n\nThose grounds for impeachment are, "The President, Vice President and all civil Officers of the United States, shall be removed from Office on Impeachment for, and Conviction of, Treason, Bribery, or other high Crimes and Misdemeanors."\n\nClarification continues, ". . . those offences which proceed from the misconduct of public men, or, in other words, from the abuse or violation of some public trust. They are of a nature which may with peculiar propriety be denominated POLITICAL, as they relate chiefly to injuries done immediately to the society itself." \n\nThis would include going to war for political gain and the disenfranchisement of voters, both of which I believe President Bush has done and can be proven.\n\nContinuing, "[I]f the President be connected, in any suspicious manner, with any person, and there be grounds to believe he will shelter him, the House of Representatives can impeach him; they can remove him if found guilty; . . ."\n\nHis connection with Ken Lay and Tom DeLay could be considered suspicious and I believe by defending them as he has done, Bush would be inclined to protect them.\n\nHere’s the main foundation for advancing with impeachment procedures against President Bush, "...must certainly be punishable for giving false information to the Senate. He is to regulate all intercourse with foreign powers, and it is his duty to impart to the Senate every material intelligence he receives. If it should appear that he has not given them full information, but has concealed important intelligence which he ought to have communicated, and by that means induced them to enter into measures injurious to their country, and which they would not have consented to had the true state of things been disclosed to them, -- in this case, I ask whether, upon an impeachment for a misdemeanor upon such an account, the Senate would probably favor him."\n\nThere in no doubt, by his own admission, President Bush gave false information to the Senate about Iraq.\n\nHere’s a complete list of grounds for impeachment which President Bush can most likely be proven to have committed:\n\nBush lied to Congress and the American public about the reasons for invading Iraq. \nBush conducted illegal wiretaps of American citizens. \nBush violated International Law by invading a sovereign country for illegal purposes. \nBush violated the Geneva Convention by torturing prisoners of war. \nBush held prisoners without formal charges and without legal representation. \nBush used government funds for domestic political propaganda.\nThe Bush team used uniformed military personnel for Republican party political purposes.\nBush was negligent in his slow response to help victims of Hurricane Katrina. \nBush shows contempt towards our Constitution and our democratic ideals. \n\nThen after the panel concludes their investigation, the results will be presented to the House of Representative for a vote.

The Republicans wanted to impeach Clinton for what he did...  What Bush has done ranks much higher on the reasons for impeachment

Yes. Bush and Cheney should be impeached for the following reasons:\n\nTen Reasons to Impeach George Bush and Dick Cheney\nI ask Congress to impeach President Bush and Vice President Cheney for the following reasons:\n\n1. Violating the United Nations Charter by launching an illegal "War of Aggression" against Iraq without cause, using fraud to sell the war to Congress and the public, misusing government funds to begin bombing without Congressional authorization, and subjecting our military personnel to unnecessary harm, debilitating injuries, and deaths.\n\n2. Violating U.S. and international law by authorizing the torture of thousands of captives, resulting in dozens of deaths, and keeping prisoners hidden from the International Committee of the Red Cross.\n\n3. Violating the Constitution by arbitrarily detaining Americans, legal residents, and non-Americans, without due process, without charge, and without access to counsel.\n\n4. Violating the Geneva Conventions by targeting civilians, journalists, hospitals, and ambulances, and using illegal weapons, including white phosphorous, depleted uranium, and a new type of napalm.\n\n5. Violating U.S. law and the Constitution through widespread wiretapping of the phone calls and emails of Americans without a warrant.\n\n6. Violating the Constitution by using "signing statements" to defy hundreds of laws passed by Congress.\n\n7. Violating U.S. and state law by obstructing honest elections in 2000, 2002, 2004, and 2006.\n\n8. Violating U.S. law by using paid propaganda and disinformation, selectively and misleadingly leaking classified information, and exposing the identity of a covert CIA operative working on sensitive WMD proliferation for political retribution.\n\n9. Subverting the Constitution and abusing Presidential power by asserting a "Unitary Executive Theory" giving unlimited powers to the President, by obstructing efforts by Congress and the Courts to review and restrict Presidential actions, and by promoting and signing legislation negating the Bill of Rights and the Writ of Habeas Corpus.\n\n10. Gross negligence in failing to assist New Orleans residents after Hurricane Katrina, in ignoring urgent warnings of an Al Qaeda attack prior to Sept. 11, 2001, and in increasing air pollution causing global warming.\n\nThis is not a matter of impeachment because one does not like him, it is a matter of him committing crimes and he and cheney should be impeached for their illegal offenses. \n\nPresident Clinton was impeached by the repubs for something that was not even a misdeminor. \n\nThere are major movements now underway that will insure he and cheney will be impeached this spring, so rest assured, he and cheney will be paying the price for their actions. \n\nAnother person said cheney would be next in line, no he is going also, so Nancy Pelosi will be next in line for President as speaker of the house. Then listen to the repubs whine. \n\nHappy Thanksgiving, \n\nDarryl S.

3/4 of the U.S. have to oppose Bush, and you have to have a Congress that would Impeach him. Since the Congress is 100% "RIGHT WINGED" right now at the present, and the Democrats and Independents don't have any vote. It will change in November, just watch. I have seen this with the Ragan/Bush Administration's of the 80's early 90's. His approval ratings are at 33% so it is possible.

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.

Rumsfeld, and\nAttorney General Alberto Gonzales\n\nThe President, Vice President and all civil Officers of the United States, shall be removed from Office on Impeachment for, and Conviction of, Treason, Bribery, or other high Crimes and Misdemeanors. - - ARTICLE II, SECTION 4 OF THE CONSTITUTION OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA\n\nPresident George W. Bush, Vice President Richard B. Cheney, Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice, Secretary of Defense Donald H. Rumsfeld, and Attorney General Alberto Gonzales have committed violations and subversions of the Constitution of the United States of America in an attempt to carry out with impunity crimes against peace and humanity and war crimes and deprivations of the civil rights of the people of the United States and other nations, by assuming powers of an imperial executive unaccountable to law and usurping powers of the Congress, the Judiciary and those reserved to the people of the United States, by the following acts:\n\n1) Seizing power to wage wars of aggression in defiance of the U.S. Constitution, the U.N. Charter and the  rule of law; carrying out a massive assault on and occupation of Iraq, a country that was not threatening the United States, resulting in the death and maiming of over one hundred thousand Iraqis, and thousands of U.S. G.I.s.\n\n2) Lying to the people of the U.S., to Congress, and to the U.N., providing false and deceptive rationales for war.\n\n3) Authorizing, ordering and condoning direct attacks on civilians, civilian facilities and locations where civilian casualties were unavoidable. \n\n4) Instituting a secret and illegal wiretapping and spying operation against the people of the United States through the National Security Agency.\n\n5) Threatening the independence and sovereignty of Iraq by belligerently changing its government by force and assaulting Iraq in a war of aggression.\n\n6) Authorizing, ordering and condoning assassinations, summary executions, kidnappings, secret and other illegal detentions of individuals, torture and physical and psychological coercion of prisoners to obtain false statements concerning acts and intentions of governments and individuals and violating within the United States, and by authorizing U.S. forces and agents elsewhere, the rights of individuals under the First, Fourth, Fifth, Sixth and Eighth Amendments to the Constitution of the United States, the Universal Declaration of Human Rights, and the International Covenant on Civil and Political Rights.\n\n7) Making, ordering and condoning false statements and propaganda about the conduct of foreign governments and individuals and acts by U.S. government personnel; manipulating the media and foreign governments with false information; concealing information vital to public discussion and informed judgment concerning acts, intentions and possession, or efforts to obtain weapons of mass destruction in order to falsely create a climate of fear and destroy opposition to U.S. wars of aggression and first strike attacks.\n\n8) Violations and subversions of the Charter of the United Nations and international law, both a part of the "Supreme Law of the land" under Article VI, paragraph 2, of the Constitution, in an attempt to commit with impunity crimes against peace and humanity and war crimes in wars and threats of aggression against Afghanistan, Iraq and others and usurping powers of the United Nations and the peoples of its nations by bribery, coercion and other corrupt acts and by rejecting treaties, committing treaty violations, and frustrating compliance with treaties in order to destroy any means by which international law and institutions can prevent, affect, or adjudicate the exercise of U.S. military and economic power against the international community.\n\n9) Acting to strip Uni

Bush should be impeached for the following reasons:\n\n1.) Lying about the reason for the war prior to invading Iraq:  \nBush and his team deliberately misled Congress and the American public about the rationale for invading Iraq. Bush convinced a majority of Americans that Iraq was involved with Al-Qaeda and responsible for the 9/11 attacks. Yet the evidence shows that Iraq was not involved. Bush said in his State of the Union Address that "The British Government has learned that Saddam Hussein recently sought significant quantities of uranium from Africa" to build nuclear weapons. But he had already been told by the CIA that the evidence was forged. Former Ambassador Joe Wilson challenged Bush about the falsity of these State of the Union claims and, in retaliation, senior white house officials outted his CIA wife Valerie Plame.  Bush claimed to have hard evidence that Iraq had weapons of mass destruction. But the UN investigators could not verify any of these claims and searches of Iraq revealed no such weapons.  Furthermore, the recent "discovery" of more than a decade old chemical weapons, despite the rhetoric, does not signify that weapons of mass destruction have been found.  Dick Cheney claimed that Iraq possessed deadly weapons of mass destruction that were a grave threat to the security of our nation.  The weapons that were found recently were unuseable and no longer effective due to the age of the material.  Chemical experts have stated that they were no more dangerous than a typical household cleaning substance.  Bush knows that he cannot use this insignificant find to justify his war, other wise he would be doing so...\n\n2.)The illegal wiretapping of American Citizens: \n"George Bush authorized the NSA to conduct illegal wiretaps on American citizens. Bush claimed that these were justified on the basis of national security. But there is a legal mechanism for conducting emergency wiretaps followed by court approval within 72 hours. Bush ignored that mechanism and exceeded his executive authority. Bush claims he has authority to wiretap anyone he wishes but legal scholars, including some Republican lawmakers, disagree."\n\n3.)  Torture of Prisoners:  \n"Bush and his team have set up a system of prisons around the world where prisoners can be tortured. They have transported prisoners from the United States, Europe and elsewhere to other countries for the purpose of having them tortured. They have fought hard to build a legal case for torture but the fact remains that torture is highly illegal. It is also considered an ineffective means of getting reliable information from a prisoner. Bush is guilty of violating of the Federal Torture Act, the UN Torture Convention and the Geneva Convention."  Alberto Gonzales, our Attorney General, is famous for referring to the Geneva Convention as being "quaint and obsolete."  Just recently, the bodies of 2 American soldiers were found, who had been brutally tortured before eventually being killed.  Policies supporting torture are a direct threat to the safety of our troops in the field and need to be stopped!!  Come on all you troop supporting "Patriots!"\n\n4.)  Violation of International Law:\n"According to our Constitution, International Treaties are part of the "supreme Law of the Land". They are not something that can be ignored when they are inconvenient. Bush's violations of the UN Charter and the Nuremberg Charter are, therefore, impeachable offenses."\n\nOf course, despite all of this, you will not see a movement towards impeachment in Congress due to the simple fact that the majority party is none other than the Republicans.  They will not impeach Bush because it will reflect poorly on themselves and their party.  Yes, it is disgusting that rather than caring for the security and dignity of our nation and its people, they are worried for their own careers and reputation...but, sadly, its

Traditionally, the impeachment process begins with the House Judiciary Committee holding hearings. If the committee then passes an impeachment resolution and accompanying articles of impeachment, those go to the full House. And if the resolution and articles are approved (by a simple majority), the president is impeached, the equivalent of being formally charged. \n\nThat is the first step of a two-step process. There is then a trial in the Senate, with members of the House serving as prosecutor and the chief justice serving as judge. If the Senate finds the president guilty of any of the articles of impeachment – by a two-thirds vote – he is removed from office and the vice president immediately assumes the presidency.

No.  Besides, a petition won't get a president impeached.  It takes an act of the U.S. House of Representatives to impeach a president, then the U.S. Senate has to convict for the president to actually lose his job.\n\nWe'll see how successful your petition is!

Impeached for what?\n\nOh, and the answer is slim to none.  He has to do something wrong first.
