The Articles of Impeachment Against George W. Bush
http://www.votetoimpeach.org/articles_rc.htm

"5) Making, ordering and condoning false statements ... manipulating the media and foreign governments with false information; concealing information vital to public discussion and informed judgment concerning acts, intentions and possession, or efforts to obtain weapons of mass destruction in order to falsely create a climate of fear and destroy opposition to U.S. wars of aggression and first strike attacks.

7) Acting to strip United States citizens of their constitutional and human rights, ordering indefinite detention of citizens, without access to counsel, without charge, and without opportunity to appear before a civil judicial officer to challenge the detention, based solely on the discretionary designation by the Executive of a citizen as an "enemy combatant."

8) Ordering indefinite detention of non-citizens in the United States and elsewhere, and without charge, at the discretionary designation of the Attorney General or the Secretary of Defense.

11) Refusing to provide public disclosure of the identities and locations of persons who have been arrested, detained and imprisoned by the U.S. government in the United States, including in response to Congressional inquiry.

12) Use of secret arrests of persons within the United States and elsewhere and denial of the right to public trials."

1. I'll make the point now
even though I am all for impeaching the boy in so called charge, there is no way that Delay and Haster will allow this to come to the floor. Hence our best choice is to vote them out.

That does not mean you do not write to your congress critters et al... and demand them, just don't expect them to happen
