Should president Bush and VP Cheney resign for their incompetence?
823818
The answer to this one is YES, YES, YES AND YES......They should resign immediately.  They are totally incompetent. .Every time I watch Bush speak I am embarrassed that someone from another country will be watching him and say "man, is that the best they have"

No. The Pres is always in full communication with his staff and it doesn't matter where he is. The VP does not take over for him unless he is incapacitated. Thank God. Would you want Cheney in charge for 5 minutes? Bush is bad enough.

Everbody suspects it, of course, but probably damfew could prove it, and a weak House, in bringing up charges of impeachment against the Evil Cheney cannot count on a Republican senate to toss Cheney out. (Same goes for Bush.)

Eh... lie may be a strong word... I would say... \n\nWhy is it that Bush is incompetent...and it's ok with republicans...\nI mean the list goes on and on... even if you don't want to argue about "why" we invaded Iraq, but what we've done since "mission accomplished" has been one incompetent step after another... with generals yelling the whole way that this is a bad idea...\n\nand ports... and harriet meyers... and the listening in on America with no oversight... and not going after osama... and "WMD" and oil prices (I mean release the reserve already)

Yes. Bush and Cheney should be impeached for the following reasons:\n\nTen Reasons to Impeach George Bush and Dick Cheney\nI ask Congress to impeach President Bush and Vice President Cheney for the following reasons:\n\n1. Violating the United Nations Charter by launching an illegal "War of Aggression" against Iraq without cause, using fraud to sell the war to Congress and the public, misusing government funds to begin bombing without Congressional authorization, and subjecting our military personnel to unnecessary harm, debilitating injuries, and deaths.\n\n2. Violating U.S. and international law by authorizing the torture of thousands of captives, resulting in dozens of deaths, and keeping prisoners hidden from the International Committee of the Red Cross.\n\n3. Violating the Constitution by arbitrarily detaining Americans, legal residents, and non-Americans, without due process, without charge, and without access to counsel.\n\n4. Violating the Geneva Conventions by targeting civilians, journalists, hospitals, and ambulances, and using illegal weapons, including white phosphorous, depleted uranium, and a new type of napalm.\n\n5. Violating U.S. law and the Constitution through widespread wiretapping of the phone calls and emails of Americans without a warrant.\n\n6. Violating the Constitution by using "signing statements" to defy hundreds of laws passed by Congress.\n\n7. Violating U.S. and state law by obstructing honest elections in 2000, 2002, 2004, and 2006.\n\n8. Violating U.S. law by using paid propaganda and disinformation, selectively and misleadingly leaking classified information, and exposing the identity of a covert CIA operative working on sensitive WMD proliferation for political retribution.\n\n9. Subverting the Constitution and abusing Presidential power by asserting a "Unitary Executive Theory" giving unlimited powers to the President, by obstructing efforts by Congress and the Courts to review and restrict Presidential actions, and by promoting and signing legislation negating the Bill of Rights and the Writ of Habeas Corpus.\n\n10. Gross negligence in failing to assist New Orleans residents after Hurricane Katrina, in ignoring urgent warnings of an Al Qaeda attack prior to Sept. 11, 2001, and in increasing air pollution causing global warming.\n\nThis is not a matter of impeachment because one does not like him, it is a matter of him committing crimes and he and cheney should be impeached for their illegal offenses. \n\nPresident Clinton was impeached by the repubs for something that was not even a misdeminor. \n\nThere are major movements now underway that will insure he and cheney will be impeached this spring, so rest assured, he and cheney will be paying the price for their actions. \n\nAnother person said cheney would be next in line, no he is going also, so Nancy Pelosi will be next in line for President as speaker of the house. Then listen to the repubs whine. \n\nHappy Thanksgiving, \n\nDarryl S.

Yes it is time for Bush to step down, unfortunately our system does not work that way, but people have lost confidence in his ability to lead. His popularity has dropped to 29%. We will have an election in November that could change things. If the democrats can get a majority in either chamber then there is a possibility that he will be impeached. His leadership will certainly be challenged at best.

If she got fired for that, I'd say Cheney should get fired for telling Leahy to "go f*** yourself" on the floor of the Senate.

We can't leave but shouldn't stay.  Who knows what we should do.  Bush, Cheney, and Rummy certainly don't.  Cheney said it was almost over a year and a half ago.  Bush says he's not satisfied but he really isn't changing anything.  Rummy is just a confused self righteous old coot.

Seems likely in view of the fact that two or three weeks ago Bush lied that Rumsfeld would be staying on for the next two years.  Apparently a lie since he "accepted" Rumsfeld's resignation the morning after the election.  Speaking of....if there is to be a trial against Rumsfeld, would it consider Bush and Cheney as accomplishes?

I think if it hadn't been for Cheney the V.P, he would have sued the **** out of the person who shot him.  The fact that he didn't sue Cheney doesn't necessarily mean that he's an incompetent lawyer.  Probably he was paid off on the side...or given some lifelong benefit that discouraged the lawyer from sueing.

At least twice each week I read the rant of another angry American who declares that Bush is an idiot, but if they're just figuring that out now, they're throwing stones from a glass house. \nOf course he's an idiot. They needed an idiot. If the man displayed any signs of intelligence, evil actions couldn't be passed off as "failures" or "bungling." If the president were intelligent and scholarly, people would question why he's completely incompetent, but because he's an obvious buffoon, many people accept that as the reason everything's going horribly wrong. It's also a lot less distressing to believe that your government is incompetent rather than know that they're evil, and most people will cling to that comfort. \n\nThe real problem is that if people blame Bush's idiocy for our troubles, they probably also think that the solution would be to get him out of office, but if they think we'll be saved by "Hillary in '08," or any other politician, they're even slower than Bush. \n\nRegardless of who's occupying the White House, there has never been an idiot running this country. There's too much power and money at stake for an idiot to gain control of it. If the president is an idiot, he's only in the White House because someone else has firm control over him. Someone somewhere has a lot more control over the fate of this nation than our "president" does. \n\nOf course this reasoning begs the question "if this country isn't being run by an idiot, why is everything going so horribly wrong?" The answer is that it's going wrong by design. \n\nThe questioner makes the assumption that this country is being run by people who are acting in the interest of Americans, but nothing can be further from the truth. Instead of accusing Bush of doing a lousy job, or being a lousy president, please try to think in terms of Bush's "boss" being someone other than the American people, and his "job" as being to grab as much cash as he can for himself and his friends before driving this country into the ground. If you look at his presidency in that light, you can instantly see that he's doing a marvelous job, and he's the best "president" an enemy nation could ever hope to see in the White House.The fact of the matter is that America as we know it (or knew it) is being systematically destroyed, and the politicians from both political parties are making this possible. \n\nWanna Read MORE On THIS???\nSee My BLOG

Democratic leaders aren't so immature and petty as to go around impeaching everyone they don't like.  Unlike Republican leaders who impeached a president for his lying about his sex life, Democrats are able to behave in a mature and responsible fashion and realize that impeaching a president for a couple minor infractions like forging evidence to starting a war and ordering illegal wiretaps on US citizens won't accomplish anything.\n\nI, however, am not as mature as many of our political leaders and think it would be really freaking cool if Bush were impeached.  However, if he were removed from office we'd be left with Cheney.  This would be unfortunate in that we'd have all the same policy without Bush's highly entertaining abuse of the English language.\n\nOh, and just to clarify, Clinton was impeached.  Impeachment does not refer to removal from office, but rather the initation of a hearing to determine if removal is necessary.

It would be nice if he and Dick gave us back all of the profits they've made off of this stupid war.  Bush sucks,  Cheney too.
