Don't be silly ... geode does not have the power to impeach the Chimp and you know it. Why not? Geode00 has the same ability as everyone else to write one's congressmen and collect petitions and create activist pressure groups to force congress to impeach Bush.. The REAL problem Geode00, and others of the same ilk, is that they haven't got a legal leg to stand on. Because Congress authorized the war, Bush didn't. They empowered him to invade Iraq, just as the UNSC, via UNSC 1441 and 678 empowered him to conduct the invasion. So impeaching Bush would require impeaching every congressperson who voted in favor of the authorization to use force.. And please, o' please, don't try and tell us that somehow "Bush lied" about the intelligence. Because the appointed Congressional Intelligence Oversight members saw the VERY SAME intelligence and the majority came to the same conclusion. The whole "impeach Bush" campaign is nothing more than legislatures trying to "pass the buck" so they don't have to take responsibility for their actions. Hawk
