Impeachment isnt because you think the guy sucks, it is because he committed a crime.

The position of President is still a JOB. If impeachment is the only way to get someone out of that position that has no business being there, then so be it.

Constitution is clear. Impeachment is for "treason, bribery, or other high crimes and misdemeanors." .

If you don't see this war in Iraq as a crime when compared to lying about a blowjob, then you really need help.
1. he didn't get impeached for a blowjob

2. you say in this post that bush should be impeached for breaking the law, but

"well, he didn't break any laws, but I don't like the job he's doing."

The question here is, was Congress mislead? If their werent so many bought and paid for legislatures, you would here a much greater out cry of deception coming from them. As it is they are jumping off the Bush bandwagon as fast as the party will let them.

Of course I think he should be impeached for breaking the law...that doesn't mean that the facts are there to show that he HAS broken the law. Twisting of my words denied.

They were all misled because of the incompetence of the whole administration. Bush made bad appointments. Those people made bad hiring decisions...so forth and so on. Eventually the buck stops at the top. If the CEO of a company fumbles and bumbles his way through his job and the company looks like shit and loses money, guess what? He resigns or is replaced.

You think he should be impeached for breaking a law even though you admit he didn't break a law?

I didn't need to twist those words

I'm not twisting your words...you're not making any sense all by yourself.

Admit you want him fired because you don't like him and that this whole "he should be impeached" thing is bullshit and you're good to go. You can hope/wish/think he should be fired all you want. To say he should be impeached means he broke laws and you can prove it.... either do that or just tell us you think popularity should decide the president.

Wrong, per usual. I said he perjured himself. More than once.

IF he has broken a law, he should be impeached. Not sure where the disconnect is here. Just because it hasn't been PROVEN he has broken a law yet doesn't mean he hasn't and it can't be proven. Get him in front of a grand jury or something I bet he perjures himself too.

You don't need to twist my words yet you continue to do so? I make perfect sense. My comments are pretty straightforward.

"I don't like him" is subjective. That's not what I have been saying at all...but keep trying. "HE IS INCOMPETENT AND PROVES IT DAILY" is what I have been saying and why I think he should lose his job...if impeachment is the only way to get a President out of office, fine, impeach his ass.

I've already said two of the branches should be replaced. Congress will be replaced this coming election. When will the executive branch be replaced for incompetence? I don't see a problem with the Judicial Branch and I thank god they are there to keep this dumbass in check every single day.

priceless........ "I'm not sure if he's broken a law so we should put him in front of a grand jury and see if he lies so we can say he perjured himself and then impeach him."

Brilliant!!!

I'm not twisting your words. I'm repeating what you said.

Except that impeaching him requires him to have broken a law. What law has he broken?

IF. IF IF IF IF IF. You understand that word, correct? IF HE HAS BROKEN A LAW, PUT HIM IN FRONT OF A GRAND JURY AND LET'S SEE HIM PERJUR HIMSELF. Very simple. Must you be a tool in every fucking thread?

"high crime or misdemeanor." Explain to me what a "high crime" is? Straight out of the Constitution it pretty much means Congress can determine whatever they want as a "high crime."

I'm not being a tool, you're being a retard. You might as well be saying "If he was a woman I'd fuck him in the vagina" or "If he was a tree I'd chop him down and count his rings." Your posts are nonsense.

"IF HE HAS BROKEN A LAW....." I'm still waiting for you to tell me what law he's broken.

High crimes and misdemeanours - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
