Poll question: Will Bush and Cheney be impeached?
There are 510 days left in Bush and Cheney's term.

3. The folks in Congress are scared, or whatever
but they will not do the people's business AGAIN

And in my view will be shocked, SHOCKED I TELL YOU when they don't retake the white house

4. Yes - It's The Republicans That Will Do It
The "Battlin' Congressional Democrats" see keeping Bush in office as a great thing - he is a perpetual Christmas in that every day he gives them a new gift to remind voters of how awful the Republicans are.

At some point, the Republicans will tire of Bush's moving their re-election chances to almost nil, and will start the impeachment ball rolling. The Dems will have to give in, although grudgingly.

5. No, it's too late for that now, better start planning for the war crime trials at The Hague...
...and figuring out how to keep them from disappearing to Bolivia or an Island off of U.A.E.

And Please remember, Impeachment is not the same as removal. Impeachment of a Politician or Judge is almost exactly the same as an Indictment in the Criminal Courts, there still has to be a trial too.

Plus, just think about how long trials have gone at The Hague in recent years, they could drag on for several election cycles!:evilgrin:

6. Really I would rather see that
war crimes trials that is, just cause he is not in the WH doesn't mean he can not go on trial.

our current president did was to withdraw the US from the World Court

19. Why would you ask that question here? Ask the appropriate authorities.
No one here has any way of knowing the answer to that question. And I'm sure you are aware of that. So the only reasonable conclusion is that you are doing a little taunting, not unusual I might add.

15. If Americans want impeachment of Cheney/Bush, I think we can get it ---
And, it doesn't look like Bush/Cheney are going to stop their antics, stop draining the Treasury, stop causing death to Iraqis and maybe even Iranians ....

Stop attacking our civil rights, human rights, Bill of Rights --

Will we be happier in the next days? I doubt it --

In fact, I think it will keep getting worse -- which is why I voted YES!

16. There's no way to say for sure.
A lot can happen between here and there.
