Meanwhile, at least eight (8) US cities, including Arcata, Santa Cruz, and San Francisco, each in California; and Brookfield, Dummerston, Marlboro, Newfane, and Putney, each in Vermont, have passed resolutions calling for Bush’s impeachment.

Well there you go... this makes it very simple as to where to NEVER, EVER, move to.

LOL - I forgot about that one! Maybe we can incorporate it into the '08 campaign.

As I said before, it's more talk about trying to force Bush and Cheney to resign but I did hear that at least a couple Republicans have used that word and it would be wise for them to stop it or Bush will hand their a*s to them on a silver platter.

No offense, but aren't most of them black?

Actually, they would need 67 votes for conviction if all senators are present: see Article I, Sec. 3 of the Constitution ("And no Person shall be convicted without the Concurrence of two thirds of the Members present.").

I don't think there's a chance in hell they could impeach but even if the House did like you said removal won't fly with the Senate. The intent the congress would hope for with such an act is to get Bush and Cheney to resign.

I was replying to post 31 where another poster was saying that a Dhimmicrat simple majority in the senate was enough to remove. Either way-not going to happen.

Wonder how many from the GOP has signed on?

And how many so-called Freepers will watch with glee?

"They have a case against Bush for not securing our border with Mexico..."

Your 'feelings are bleeding through' what is lawfully required to impeach a president. Kind of make you sound just like a demonRAT.

Sorry - but it sounds like what it is.

Didn't Conyers draft articles of impeachment against President Reagan also? I predict the same result here.

Not a sacrifice at all, an honor. Thanks

Anyone who thinks President Bush should be impeached for anything is a nut case.

Well I didn't say the President should be impeached, but there may well be some causes that fit. Neglect of duty and breach of the public trust with immigration comes to mind. It may be a reach, but treason could also mean helping a foreign goverment (Its people) do harm to the United States. He has not stopped the invasion from Mexico and apparently will not. Clearly the United States and it citizens have been harmed. Taxpayers footing the bills, anchor babies, proposed amnesty for lawbreakers, all are hurting the USA.

Who is the nut case, those calling for our laws to be enforced or those encouraging them to be broken?

Tarred and feathered, stripped of US citizenship?

Arcata, Santa Cruz and San Francisco- yeah, these are California cities that inspire staggering fear in the GOP. Much the same, as the pandering signatories. Well, I guess even chicken littles get their cheeep azz say about nothing- even in a Free Republic.

My point is that impeaching him on the Iraq war is wrong. We knew what the situation was at the time. We couldn't take a chance on Saddam not having WMD when Sadaams actions indicated that he did have WMDs.

My point is; if you are going to try to impeach the president do it on an issue that will go across party lines.

Americans don't like that border with Mexico left open. And they don't like people who are trying to close it being called vigilantes by the President. They don't like amnesty programs for trespassers either.

That failure to secure our border with Mexico would be a better tack for the Socialists(Dems) to take rather than the Iraq War approach.

But as I mentioned in an earlier post; along with the Bushies, both the Republicans and the Socialists(dems) want the border porous, so they are not inclined to take that tack on the President. - Tom

What is lawfully required to impeach a president? How about Article x against Johnson?
