What would it take to get Bush* impeached?

[trof]

Given the majority of repugs in both houses, what WOULD IT TAKE?

[trof]

1. Mods: This probably should be in the Lounge.

Thanks.

[trof]

3. Thank you.

Gee, I turned myself in.
I feel so virtuous.

2. He'll never be impeached.

Too many people think he's the voice of God.

[trof]

11. VOG?

You mean he isn't?

[girl gone mad]

4. Re-(s)election! n/t

[gmoney]

5. Most of these aren't constitutional issues...

Murdering the pope might be considered a "high crime" but then again, maybe not... all the others are "lifestyle" issues or policy decisions (pardoning Saddam). Again, Clinton wasn't impeached for the oral sex, but for charges of lying about it and conspiring to have others lie about it.

I'd think knowingly putting citizens in harm's way through inaction on 9/11, or perjuring himself before congress regarding the reasons for going to war should be enough. But, he managed to get congress to write him a blank check to go to war, so he'd probably get off the hook then.

Impeachment is a pipe dream...

7. Gee, you kind of a serious guy , hunh?

Not a CPA are ya?
Welcome to DU, anyway.

6. * bush changes party affiliation

I guess that would do it :shrug:

[trof]

9. Dead on.

THAT, I think, would do it.

[Bundbuster]

8. Won't happen

He could be filmed doing all of the above on the White House lawn with the Supreme Court in attendance, AND comitting serial bestialty with Barney, sheep, exploding whales, and yaks.

"Nothing here - Clinton made me do it, God told me it's all part of becoming a fulfilled Christian."

10. all is lost

abandon hope, all who enter here

12. At first I was going to say #2. But he would just say he was giving mouth

to mouth to try to revive dead woman.
For the live boy - I can't think of a good excuse - but you can sure bet he could.

13. It was his nephew

and they were only drinking Jesus Juice.

14. Democratic majority in the House and Senate

Ain't going to happen otherwise. The Pugs protect their own...

[ikojo]

21. I may be wrong but I don't think the pugs had majorities in

the house and Senate when they initiated impeachment proceedings against Clinton. They DEFINITELY were not the majority when they initiated all the investigations. They were after Clinton the day he was inaugurated.

The Dems had more than enough on Bush but were more concerned about "healing" a "wounded" nation following a moderately contested election. I say the 2000 election was moderately contested because again the Dems were more concerned about appearance and instead of encouraging huge demonstrations they told various parties to stay away. When the Congressional Black Caucus wanted to stand in opposition to certifying the election there was not one Dem who supported them. Do you think the pugs would have been interested in "healing" had the 2000 election turned in Gore's favor? I DON'T THINK SO!

What the Republicans were is an EFFECTIVE OPPOSITION party. They stayed on message. Of course they have a lot of help delivering their message but to have all of those outlets stay on message is quite a feat.

IMHO, The reason I think they are able to stay on message so well is because they could care less what the Dems think of them. They don't run with the Democrats in mind. They know who their base is and THAT is who they cater to.

15. nothing less than the 2nd coming

and Jesus himself demanding it.

whereupon Jizz Foulwell and Pus Robberson would denounce Christ anyway.

[JasonDeter]

16. Hell freezing over. eom

[Jen72]

17. I would be an event orcestrated by his father..

and Cheney.

[liberalitch]

18. None of it...

he will never be impeached because like pat robertson said. "He could make some really BIG mistakes (I guess.... not like the ones he has already made) and he will be picked up by God because he is a man of prayer."

He can do AYTHING and it will be alright.

[baldguy]

19. Lie to get us into a war that we can't win. . .

and alienate ALL of our allies in the process.

never mind.

[ikojo]

20. An opposition party willing to

initiate impeachment proceedings. The Dems have GOT to stop worrying about what the Republicans think of them and get on with being a true opposition party.

[greatauntoftriplets]

22. The second coming of Christ?

[AlFrankenFan]

23. Having sex with Condi maybe?

:shrug:

[jmowreader]

24. He could f*** a sheep on nat'l TV and not get impeached

Besides, as I said before, they don't have to impeach him. They can "ask him to resign for the good of the country." And if he doesn't resign, his party will send him all sorts of neat bills, like mandatory abortion for single military females tucked into the Defense Department's budget...the kind of bills where he's damned if he signs them and damned if he doesn't.

[Terwilliger]

25. admitting to being responsible for exposing Janet's breast

;-)

[Interrobang]

26. For him to change his name to "Bill Clinton"?

For him to change his party affiliation to "Democrat"?

Otherwise, I have no idea. If I were Empress-Elect of the World, he would have gone down for high crimes and misdemeanours already!
