Ten Reasons to Impeach George Bush and Dick Cheney
I ask Congress to impeach President Bush and Vice President Cheney for the following reasons:
1. Violating the United Nations Charter by launching an illegal "War of Aggression" against Iraq without cause, using fraud to sell the war to Congress and the public, misusing government funds to begin bombing without Congressional authorization, and subjecting our military personnel to unnecessary harm, debilitating injuries, and deaths.

2. Violating U.S. and international law by authorizing the torture of thousands of captives, resulting in dozens of deaths, and keeping prisoners hidden from the International Committee of the Red Cross.

3. Violating the Constitution by arbitrarily detaining Americans, legal residents, and non-Americans, without due process, without charge, and without access to counsel.

4. Violating the Geneva Conventions by targeting civilians, journalists, hospitals, and ambulances, and using illegal weapons, including white phosphorous, depleted uranium, and a new type of napalm.

5. Violating U.S. law and the Constitution through widespread wiretapping of the phone calls and emails of Americans without a warrant.

6. Violating the Constitution by using "signing statements" to defy hundreds of laws passed by Congress.

7. Violating U.S. and state law by obstructing honest elections in 2000, 2002, 2004, and 2006.

8. Violating U.S. law by using paid propaganda and disinformation, selectively and misleadingly leaking classified information, and exposing the identity of a covert CIA operative working on sensitive WMD proliferation for political retribution.

9. Subverting the Constitution and abusing Presidential power by asserting a "Unitary Executive Theory" giving unlimited powers to the President, by obstructing efforts by Congress and the Courts to review and restrict Presidential actions, and by promoting and signing legislation negating the Bill of Rights and the Writ of Habeas Corpus.

10. Gross negligence in failing to assist New Orleans residents after Hurricane Katrina, in ignoring urgent warnings of an Al Qaeda attack prior to Sept. 11, 2001, and in increasing air pollution causing global warming.


My comment;
I also believe the Bush regime is responisible for ELECTION fraud, another serious crime against OUR DEMOCRACY, which has resulted- via the actions of this illegitimate REGIME, in hundreds of thousands of deaths.




Our plan is simple: we will form Impeachment Committees in all 435 Congressional Districts to persuade all of our Representatives to support impeachment. We're organizing from the bottom up in pure grassroots style. Remember, our Representatives are supposed to represent us!


http://democrats.com/cdic and here is another petition :

SHOULD THERE BE AN IMPEACHMENT INVESIGATION OF THE BUSH/CHENEY ADMINISTRATION?

ACTION PAGE: http://www.usalone.com/impeachment_investigation.php

It is astounding that there is a actually a debate in this country about whether the law should be enforced or not, and not just the law, but the very Constitution itself.

not saying they are the BEST or only thing to do... but here they are, for those interested, who may have missed them.
So just in case, for those who criticize: yes I do other things, I write and call, protest (when I can) etc. I also like to pass worthwhile information and or actions around....

1. Don't bother with impeachment proceedings unless
we are ready to ship them to the World Court to stand trial for their crimes. If Saddam can stand trial for war crimes, his american backers should also.

2. Ilike you're idea but the 'don't bother' seems counter-productive:)
You have to have investigations, acts need to be documented etc. Have you checked out that Crimes commision report? Col. Ann Wright was involved with it.

can find more info here: http://www.afterdowningstreet.org/ David Swanson's great site.LOT's is happening! You can be a part of it, or just a whiner.
