What happens if (hopefully when?) you Americans impeach Bush
    #7519880 - 10/15/07 03:09 PM (16 years, 3 months ago)

It's not going to happen with your do nothing government, but hypothetically, let's assume it can happen. My knowledge of the American justice(!?) system is a bit limited, but maybe you can help me understand a bit more.

Wouldn't Dick Cheney become president then?

Doesn't that seem a tad worse?

This is generally a forum for adults or at least those who are willing to pretend to such status for a short period of time. Let me redirect your attention to Off Topic Discussion, or OTD as it is affectionately called . There's all kinds of scat there too.

Fine, I edited the language, for all the children reading. How's that?

Uh, first of all I don't see why you would ask a question like this in such an insulting tone, as if Bush has the country's full support or as if Canadian politicians are inherently better. Politics is compromise, buddy. We just happened to make a really big one on this guy. Far be it for me to defend a lot of the people in this government, but, um...we DID sort of come up with constitutional democracy. You're welcome.

But taking your question at face value, my opinion is that there's really no good that can come out of impeaching Bush and it would be better to let him run out his term and take his entire party down with him.

You actually have to have grounds for impeachment and there are none.

I know that most americans don't support him. But the fact remains that lots of left wingers want to see him impeached. Moreover, no american alive right now came up with consitutional democracy, your founders did, and so long as americans keep looking to the accomplishments of their past generations, the less relevant they become. I'll thank your country's founders, not you.

They can want all they like, but until Bush breaks a law, there is nothing they can do. An impeachment is used to remove a person from office that has broken a law, not to recall a person that is incompetent or dropped from favor with the public. Clinton, for example, lied under oath, thus committing the crime of perjury, and was almost removed from office for it.

Yeah, there's really no evidence I'm aware of that would provide grounds, but its kinda hard to depose the administration- not saying the later is a good idea either, just saying.

anyways, while the constitution only provides for the removal of the person convicted of the impeachable offense, and thus the president would become cheney, it is likely that any dirt on bush would cover cheney enough to remove him too.

But yeah, cheney would become president.

Nixon was never impeached, I believe they drew up the articles, but never went through with the vote- as he mooted it by slinking out of town.
