go in there and oust him.

Yeah, he killed a lot of people. Certainly he DESERVED to be taken out. But was it the right thing to do, given our country's circumstances? Bush argued that he would be an example for the rest of the world. But, of course, his motive really was purely selfish.

Our country really lost its focus invading Iraq. We had REAL problems with Al Qaeda, but they went mostly ignored because of Bush's vendetta. He wasn't thinking clearly. And now look where we are- caught up in something that should have been let go in lieu of addressing our real problems.

Compare and contrast Bush's invasion of Iraq with these calls for Bush's impeachment. Is impeaching Bush REALLY the smartest, best thing we can do for our country? Or are we being selfish, sacrificing what is important?
