I don't think it's reasonable to try to impeach someone just because his political opinions are wrong. A president's job should not be in danger every time the majority of Congress comes from the opposite party.
If the majority of people now want to impeach Bush, so what? There's a good reason that the president can't be impeached by a majority vote. I mean, who put Bush in charge in the first place? The majority. Who supported the Iraq War in the first place? The majority. Who elected our current Congress? The majority. Yet now the majority supports impeaching Bush, so certainly the majority must often be wrong.
So instead of using majority opinion as a declaration of impeachment, I wonder what specific reasons for impeachment we have. -Jaxian |
