Perhaps we should impeach the Demcratic Congressmen and Women who were too freaking stupid to realize that the President would actually use the power they gave him. With idiots like that, our country is in serious jeopardy. Or better yet, why not impeach the yellow and cowardly Congressional Democrats that refuse to pass legislation defunding the troops? Again with such feeble people like that our country is in serious jeopardy.

It isn't necessarily the war that makes him impeachable by law, it's the justifications for the war. He lied to Congress, and intentionally mislead the American people and the international community.

That on top of war crimes and violations of our Constitution makes him very impeachable.

Clinton lied about getting some in the Oval Office, and that's impeachable...but yet Bush lied about the rational to a war where countless have died and a country is in ruins, and yet that's perfectly alright? Most people didn't want Clinton to be impeached but that didn't stop the Republican lynching mob. And now that most of the American public want to see Bush impeached, somehow it's a taboo to speak the "I" word on Capitol Hill.

Everyone was out to lynch Nixon too, and rightfully so, for spying on his political opposition. Yet Bush spies on the American people illegally and somehow that's alright?
