    Bill Moyers show on Impeachment of Bush/Cheney

    "A public opinion poll from the American Research Group recently reported that more than four in ten Americans ? 45% ? favor impeachment hearings for President Bush and more than half ? 54% ? favored impeachment for Vice President Cheney."


    I saw an interesting Bill Moyer Journal last night with a couple of constitutional scholars advocating the filing of articles of impeachment against George Bush and Dick Cheney. They felt that the Executive Branch has gone too far and has placed itself above the law with its unauthorized wiretaps on American citizens, secret prisons, Gitmo, torture authorizations, manipulation of intelligence to start a war, political litmus test for appointments to government positions, etc.......

    They felt that if we do nothing, the next elected President will not relinquish the power and we will be on the path to a different kind of government that our Founding Fathers anticipated, feared and, therefore, provided for impeachment as a means to stop an out of control executive branch.

    Where are today's statesmen? I see too much vested interest in maintaining the status quo as they all salivate over the possible outcome of the next election.

    Here is the link if you want to know more:

      Geez, the stupidity is amazing.

      You don't impeach because you dislike policy --you impeach for crimes, and Bush hasn't committed any.

        Some would argue:

        Clinton lied and we got one blowjob with one soiled blue dress...

        Bush lied and we got an Iraq War with 3,600+ dead American soldiers.

            Yeah Gitmo, torture, warantless wiretaps, secret prisons, starting a war based on a lie, claiming executive privilege if congress wants to know about Karl Rove's bowel movements, firing U.S. attorneys because they refused to investigate prominent democrats during an election cycle, leaking classified information by outing a CIA operative because her husband told people the truth about phony intelligence that was used in the state of the union to justify going to war, refusing to allow congress to perform it's oversight duties by not allowing administration officials to testify under oath....

            Sure, there's no abuse of executive power there, nothing that would remind you of Richard Nixon or anything

                Outside of French Canada, I feel the country is like a surburb of Anglo-USA. They parrot the USA policy stance on most issues and their politicians are bought by the same monied interests as US politicians. IMHO.

                  You apparently didn't even bother to watch the video because one of the guys in the discussion was the very guy whom was the first to file articles of impeachment on Bill Clinton. A Republican conservative named Bruce Fein the former deputy attorney general under President Ronald Reagan.

                  I watched the entire video, and I think they made an extremely good case for reasons to do so and not one was because they didn't like George Bush. In fact even at the end one of them went as far as how to explain how George Bush could avoid being Impeached even after the hearings were started.

                  So get your head out of your ass and actually watch the video before you make stupid comments on it.
                  In November, you can vote for America's next president or its first dictator.

                          Under this reasoning, you would also impeach President Abraham Licoln for suspending habeas corpus during the Civil War and ignoring Judge Roger B. Taney's order.

                          Whoops! Some scholars now rank Lincoln as the #1 Best President ever, others as #3.

                            First, we don't have a declared war with ground combat in the USA. And, second, George Bush is no Abraham Lincoln even if he does occassionally sleep in the same bed.

                                  i think empeaching him now would be a travesty, and another black mark on the face of american politics. Why wait until now, when the damage has been done?

                                          You must be referring to the stupidity of your statement. It's obvious you don't even know what the word impeach means, you should look it up, than make statements about stupidity.

                                            Just ask yourself this one question:

                                            If Dick Armitage had told Hugo Chavez or Kim Jung Ill that Joe Wilsons wife Valerie Plame worked at the CIA, would it be ok with you?

                                                  Hell it's hard to get anyone to take a CENSURE seriously. All a censure does is say "hey, we're upset about this" and it gets recorded in history.

                                                  But on Moyers and PBS, they have some of THE very best coverage of this administration BAR NONE. Pbs.org.
