I was just saying, in a thread earlier today, someone should grow a set and impeach them both!

Vermont senators voted Friday to call for the impeachment of President George W. Bush and Vice President Dick Cheney, saying their actions in Iraq and the U.S. "raise serious questions of constitutionality."

The non-binding resolution was approved 16-9 without debate -- all six Republicans in the chamber at the time and three Democrats voted against it. The resolution was the latest, symbolic, effort in the state to impeach Bush. In March, 40 towns in the state known for its liberal leaning voted in favor of similar, non-binding resolutions at their annual meetings. State lawmakers in Wisconsin and Washington have also pushed for similar resolutions.

The resolution says Bush and Cheney's actions in the U.S. and abroad, including in Iraq, "raise serious questions of constitutionality, statutory legality, and abuse of the public trust."
Sounds like something you might hear on DTT......
One can only hope.

You certainly maybe correct on this. Don't forget though, it is not a conspiracy if it is in the interest of national security!

I wonder if the Vermont House will follow suit? And if other states will pass similar measures?

Serious constitutional questions. Hmmm lets see, Congress has the power to declare war, and thinking back, Congress did pass legislation that allowed the President to use everything necessary in dealing with Iraq's flagarant violations of UN Resolutions. Hmmm Congress gave the President the power, and oh my God he is actually using it.

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.

Conservatism, I repeat is not an ideology. It does not breed fanatics....But if you want men who seek, reasonably and prudently, to reconcile the best in wisdom of our ancestors with the change which is essential to a vigorous civil social existence, then you will do well to turn to conservative principles

Perhaps you should consider the fact that Bush altered the actual intel to get Congress to pass the legislation. He KNEW there were no WMD yet used as his evidence the word of a wacko.

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?
