Calling for the impeachment of a wartime president.

Impeachment of a president is a serious matter. Does he deserve it?

2-4:

     Sect. 4.  The President, Vice President and all civil 
Officers of the United States, shall be removed from Office on 
impeachment for, and Conviction of, Treason, Bribery, or other 
high Crimes and Misdemeanors.

"Bribery" is bribery and corruption. Black defines "corruption" thusly:

¦  Corruption.
¦
¦   An act done with an intent to give some advantage inconsistent
¦  with official duty and the rights of others.  The act of an
¦  official or fiduciary person who unlawfully and wrongfully uses hi
¦  station or character to procure some benefit for himself or for
¦  another person, contrary to duty and the rights of others.  See
¦  Bribe;  Extortion.

Wartime? I see a lot of military operatons under UN sanction. I've looked carefully and I don't find any legislation citing 1-8-11 as authority.

Is there anything keeping scores of Mohamed Atta's from crossing our northern or southern borders today or tomorrow?
If another act of terrorism is committed on our shores during 43's tenure, he'll be ranked below that president who caught pneumonia during his inauguration and died a month later.

If a bill of impeachment will get Bush to get off the pot then it will be worth it.
Should the Democrats capitalize on illegal immigration and ride it as an issue into the White House, a lot of Republican automatons are going to be mighty sick.

I don't think we have much choice. If the war-time president is not taking the necessary steps to defend this country, then by all means he should be impeached.

Let's not forget, our nation is now under an unprecedented strain, seeing as how we're dealing with the worst catastrophe to hit our country in a generation or more.

Farah is the worst kind of fool.

I'm hearing this all over the place. Usually from liberals, and self professed nazi's and communists.

(I live in L.A. that should explain why).
