Hmm...not an impeachable offence...committed by the President.

Keyword being

Until the Supreme Court declares this to be illegal...it isn't...and even it were it falls under the pervue of the Justice Department and is not an impeachable offense committed by the President.

, with secret wiretaps of American citizens inside the USA

There will probably be Congressional hearings into this matter and if it is determined that the President blatantly broke the law and/or blatantly abused the power of his office...there is the possibility that the House may call for impeachment hearings.

with lies and deceit leading our troops into an "undeclared war"

What lies and deceit are you speaking of...thus far in all of the hearings there has not been any evidence to support this...thus not an impeachable offense committed by the President. As for an "undeclared war"...the Congress chose not to officially declare war...but with an overwhelming majority did vote to allow the President to use the military "as he sees fit". No impeachable offense committed by the President.

, with this administration then saying "we are at war" as an excuse for every breach of faith with the American public, with declaring every critic as "unpatriotic", with this administration establishing a "gulag" at Gitmo where people check in and never leave,
|
None of these things are an impeachable offense committed by the President...and until the "gulag at Gitmo" is declared to be illegal by the Supreme Court...there is not a violation of law...and even if there were the executive would simply be ordered to turn the inmates over to the civilian justice system for prosecution. No impeachable offense committed by the President.

with two questionable elections that were probably not fairly won by Bush/Cheney, with the trashing of our economy, with the political appointees doing the dirty work at the DOJ in spite of staff recommendations, and who knows what else........

The keywords here are questionable...probably..etc. No impeachable offense here committed by the President.

I think it is time for our Congress to consider IMPEACHMENT. 
Bush lied and thousands dies, Clinton lied and we had one stained blue dress and they wanted to impeach Clinton.......maybe it time to impeach Bush.
What do you think?

No impeachable offense committed by the President. FYI...they did not want to "impeach Clinton"...President Clinton was in fact impeached.
