Judge’s ruling could provide grounds to impeach Bush


From Capitol Blue:

If a judge’s ruling that declares President George W. Bush’s domestic spying program unconstitutional holds up under appeal, the President will be guilty of violating federal law at least 30 times and that could provide grounds for impeachment, says a leading Constitutional scholar.

Jonathan Turley, law professor at George Washington University and a recognized expert on constitutional law, says the ruling Thursday by a federal judge in Detroit raises “serious implications for the Bush administration” and indicates that the President “could well have committed a federal crime at least 30 times.”

“This ruling is a bad situation that just got worse for the White House,” says Turley. “These crimes could constitute impeachable offenses.”

Turley knows a thing or two about the impeachment process. He worked with Special Prosecutor Ken Starr on the investigation that led to impeachment proceedings against former President Bill Clinton.

  1. Notice the article says that the appeal process will carry him through his second term. And since he has already packed the Supremes with his loyalists, he has nothing to worry about even if the process could be hastened up.

    Our forefathers did not foresee that our leaders could become complicit in ignoring what are obviously gross violations of the law. Does anyone REALLY think that wiretapping Americans with no oversight is legal?

    Even if the Supreme Court rules that it is legal, does anyone think that makes it OK? Think about the messages being sent to young people? “Mommy, why should I obey the rules if our (P)resident doesn’t?” “Why is our government spying on us?”
    Our Federal government is unchecked and unbalanced.

    Bush has proven the constitution is “just a piece of paper” to be ignored at will. Shame on you George Bush for taking us down a path that diminishes and endangers us all.
