Should bush be impeached?

Unread postby Gothboy » Tue 22 May 2007, 10:20:32

In my opinion, yes, because this redneck crackhead is the reason our soldiers are dying in Iraq and another thing is he wants to spend countless dollars and lives trying to get rid of this problem. And the only reason we're in Iraq right now is oil. If bush wanted their oil, why wouldn't he be nice to the arabs who own oil instead of having to go to war with them like some fucking idiot?

Yeah but the Iraq war is to bring about the Second Coming so I can't fault a guy for basing his life on biblical principles. Ave Bush!

Bush belongs in the docket in the Hague! They have made the US into a criminal state.

Not only him, but almost the entire US congress should be kicked out for blindly following Bush.

I think Ron Paul should be kept, though, he at least seems to have a level head.

At times you wish you were a US citizen, at others, you're thankful you're not. (I'm not).

Hell yes he should be impeached. Though honestly impeachment wouldn't begin to redress the blood crimes of the current admin. Bush & Co. should hang, Saddam style. The entire congress should also be sacked for flagrantly NOT doing their job.

Two words to think about....

President Cheney
"We were standing on the edges
Of a thousand burning bridges
Sifting through the ashes every day
What we thought would never end
Now is nothing more than a memory
The way things were before
I lost my way" - OCMS

Bush and/or Cheney aren't going to be impeached, because the democratic congress has other priorities.

Right now they are passing yet another bill authorizing $100 billion in new money for Iraq...this time with no pullout deadline. Next on their agenda is amnesty for 12-20 million illegal aliens in the US.

He should be taken out and shot at dawn. After a fair trial, of course. Like the "fair trial" Saddam got, where the defence witnesses were thrown in jail and the judge/prosecutor read out a statement recanting their testimony.

Even if impeachment were their prioroity there would unfortunately never be enough votes in the Senate to convict.

The House and Senate (both led by the dems) just kowtowed to Bush and voted for six more months of war in Iraq.

Can we impeach all of them too? :cry:

This comment has been ignored by all posters since, but I would like to address it. To even suggest that GW has acted as a Christian is to not understand the life and spirit of Christ. Christ preached peach and forgiveness. He did not preach vengence.

Yes, but for the blunder of embarking on the wrong course of action in response to the peak. They obviously thought that they were going to maintain the empire. They could not come to grips with how the empire would fit into the new world.
When it comes down to it, the people will always shout, "Free Barabbas." They love Barabbas. He's one of them. He has the same dreams. He does what they wish they could do. That other guy is more removed, more inscrutable. He makes them think. "Crucify him."

He shouldn't just be quickly tried and executed. That's the easy way out for him. He should be tried for each count. AWOL during a time of war (Vietnam). Election rigging. Failure to uphold his oaths of office. Each individual violation of constitutional law. High crimes of lying to the nation about WMD, the Iraq-AQ link, and each similar. High crimes of manipulating the intelligence (yellow cake). More election rigging. Conspiring to leave Katrina victims to die. Violating the Magna Carta, multiple counts. High crimes of declaring himself to be the dictator at a time of his choosing. LINK

Only after he has stood trial for each domestic offense, then he may stand trial for international crimes. Violating the U.N. Charter, launching a war of foreign aggression. A variety of specific war crimes regarding the conduct of the occupation. A variety of specific war crimes regarding the use of specific weapons such as white phosphorus.

Then come the civil suites brought by each person who was harmed.

This sort of treatment would be hell on earth for a guy like him.

He should be provided excellent medical care, to ensure that he stands trial for his (alleged) offenses. Then, we can run an international contest to devise the most spectacular execution ever. This will unite the world with such joy that it will bring about a new messianic age, or something like it.

I would like to see you put in charge of the whole process. YOu have a good concept of the transgressions, and have thought into the process well. I think that something like this will eventually happen. I think it will arise from outside the US, maybe Europe, many China, but when it does, I at least hope that the US has people running it who are willing to turn this man and all his crony's over to that bar of justice, unlike Russia and the US now, who refuse to turn the accused over to trial.

It shouldn't be a fantasy to expect existing laws to be upheld in a normal fashion. And "revenge"? I'm against that. I only want justice. Criminals ought to stand trial for their crimes when there is evidence to support criminal accusations.
