Why does everyone think Bush will get impeached?

He won't be impeached.  There is really no point in attempting to do so, it would only cost America money we don't have.  I believe there are valid reasons for impeachment but at this time I think it is more important for Congress to deal with more important issues like the war in Iraq and the economy.

I've never liked Bush, but thanks for summing up all of the reasons, and yes he should be impeached if you're interested. Clinton was a much better president.

He should be impeached for letting the United States  suffer an invasion from a foreign country. Our southern border is flooded with illegal immigrants. Tho it is a passive invasion, the goal is still the same. To take over the USA. And they will do it, thanks to George Bush.  Heck, maybe George W will commit suicide when he realizes what he has done.

I believe Bush should be impeached immediately. You want to know why I think that? Watch this film on 9-11:\n\nhttp://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=-8260059923762628848\n\n\nAnd then write your congressman and tell him you want Bush impeached! Everyone must do this or it will never happen and he will get away with god-only-knows how many other crimes.\n\n\nPeace

Good question.  If so many people don't think he's doing a good job as president, doesn't our constitution allow us to get rid of him?  I don't think as many people disapprove of him as it may seem.  The media sure makes it seem that way though.  I think people just say they disapprove of him because it's the social norm.  I might not agree with everything Bush does, but I trust that he always does what he thinks is best for our country.  And who can blame him for that?

No, he should not be impeached, he has done nothing that is illegal.  Too bad he has so many fairweather fans, everyone loved him after 9/11, and now....have people forgotten?  \n\nDon't forget that our brave men and women in the armed services are there by choice, not by any type of draft, and to sit home on your computer and whine about what is going on over there is an insult to them all.  It will be interesting to see how Bush is written about in the history books, everyone will probably love him in ten years when we see the good he has done...\n\nI get so tired of all the answers taken directly from "the daily show".....come on people, it's on Comedy Central, and bills itself as the fake news..   Read a paper.\n\n\nand p.s. to the people out there trying to make ends "meat"....maybe if you worked harder and educated yourself, you would be one of the "rich" people.  I certainly am not, working single mom (hate that term), and also going to school---not living off of the government, not expecting a handout...willing to work for what I have.  And you can bet that when I am done and making more money, and paying more income tax, I will deserve a bigger tax break.  It's only fair, right?

Watch the Texas law suit close. If Demos win yes, he will be impeached. If Republicans win or pay off the judge no, he will not be impeached. He could still face trial over the leak of a CIA agents name. He will never see prison, even for treason which it was in fact. I see you read.\nHisbushyness just put out the propaganda that reports of the planing of a nuke attack on Iran were "wild Speculation" so now we know it's the truth since Hisbushyness always lies.

No, i think the fear of having Cheney as president would keep anyone from looking for a reason to impeach Bush......plus we have more pressing matters to attend to... weather or not bush screwed up is for historians ... right now we need to fix what is broken and move on.

Don't insult chimps!  Alas, our totalitarian president will not be impeached, as the Democrats are too afraid of disrupting the country despite the fact that Bush broke the law, admitted it and is proud of it.  (If we need totalitarian tools like warrantless wiretaps to fight terrorists, then the terrorists have succeeded in destroying the United States of America.)\n\nHowever, it is important that any impeachment proceedings include the equally evil Dick Cheney.  Bush is bad enough!

Because people tend to be STUPID!! I read an article today about how there are major rumblings regarding impeaching him...

It is because the Republicans are the Majority in the Senate, so they are good at manipulation, especially with elections coming up.\nBut the Democrats have also shown their weaknesses.\nFor Politicians like Bush to lie is easy. Arrogance is a part of their nature too.\nThe momentum is building up.\nLet us wait and see...majority of Americans are fed up with him and would certainly press for him to be impeached.\nBravo!

Too late kids. It amazes me how so many people are clueless to how impeachment works. There's not enough time to impeach Bush plus he hasn't done anything you can impeach him for.\n\nDon't give me some whiney hack rhetoric about "starting an illegal war". The Gulf War that started in 1991 legally speaking never ended. Saddam signed a cease fire agreement UNSCR 657 and in short order violated it. Under cease fire terms the nations are still at war they just aren't fighting. Saddam also violated UN Charter 51 by authorizing assassination attempts on US diplomats and on former President Bush. You'd have a hard time making a case based on that because by right the US could have invaded Iraq at anytime. Saddam has only himself to blame.\n\nCongress gave Bush approval for war even if the evidence had been tainted Bush could just invoke UN Charters and security council resolutions plus the fact we were already at war with Iraq. Bush is not as stupid as you would like him to be the only thing they can get him for would be falsefying a document submitted to Congress.\n\nWiretapping?? So? There were already wiretap laws in effect approved in the 70's the new laws approved by congress just shortened the time frame and remember these were not domestic calls they were international. A call from Syria to the US is not a domestic call. \n\nIt took Kenneth Starr 5 years to impeach Clinton for perjury...let me repeat that. Clinton was NOT impeached for having oral sex he was impeached for perjury and even though he was impeached he was not evicted. \n\nThe numbers aren't there. You need 2/3rd majority to impeach Bush and remove him from office and the numbers just aren't there. The democrats have a tiny majority and not all of them are willing to impeach.\n\nBush will not be impeached so put it out of your mind hippies have been calling for it since he won back in 2000 and 6 years later he's still here until 2008 when his term ends and John McCain becomes the next president.

As long as the Republicans have 34 seats in the Senate, it won't happen. As the Democrats closed ranks when Clinton was impeached, so the Republicans will do if Bush is impeached. \n\nAlso, why would the Democrats want Bush gone? They stand to win in a landslide in the 06 midterm elections, and take back both the congress and white house in the 08 elections. Bush is the best thing to happen to the Democrats since Clinton.

Only the US House of Representatives can impeach the President. The Republicans hold a majority in the House, so it's not very likely.

I think it is a combination of many factors.  I've heard more than one person express that since experiencing Bush's Presidency they realize how good we had it under Clinton.  Also, it's sort of a wake up call when you compare what Clinton was impeached for and what Bush should be impeached for.  I don't want to see impeachment, it is a waste of time for all involved, but I do think he richly deserves it nonetheless.  People do tend to look back with fondness at some Presidents and Americans can very forgiving, depending on the circumstance and the subject.  Bill Clinton has done some great things since his Presidency ended and he stays in the public limelight.  Seeing him standing next to Bush 41 while they work together affects those ratings too.  I think we long for those in power right now to do the same.  I don't think GW should be looking for forgiveness in the future though.  I believe whether it's 10 years or 50 years after his Presidency, he will still have one of the lowest approval ratings ever recorded.

It would be hard to impeach Bush because it would have to be approved by the House and the Senate. The majority of congressmen in office are on the Right. This is sort of the same reason why Clinton wasn't impeached. Bush has done an exponential amount of damage compared to Clinton and anyone who says that it was passed on from Clinton must not have seen the U.S. budget over the past 40 yrs.
