New from the American Research Group:
Bush:
A total of 64 percent of American voters say that George W. Bush has abused his powers as president. Of the 64 percent, 14 percent (9 percent of all voters) say the abuses are not serious enough to warrant impeachment, 33 percent (21 percent of all voters) say the abuses rise to the level of impeachable offenses, but he should not be impeached, and 53 percent (34 percent of all voters) say the abuses rise to the level of impeachable offenses and Mr. Bush should be impeached and removed from office.
Of all voters, 34 percent believe Bush should be impeached and removed from office, while another 21 percent believe Bush is guilty of impeachment-worthy offenses but nonetheless prefer to give him a pass. Thus 55 percent of all voters in the poll believe Bush is impeachable and yet, bizarre as it seems, a sizable minority (21 percent) of the folks who think Bush has committed high crimes and misdemeanors do not want the Congress to pursue impeachment.
Cheney:
A total of 70 percent of American voters say that Dick Cheney has abused his powers as vice president. Of the 70 percent, 26 percent (18 percent of all voters) say the abuses are not serious enough to warrant impeachment, 13 percent (9 percent of all voters) say the abuses rise to the level of impeachable offenses, but he should not be impeached, and 61 percent (43 percent of all voters) say the abuses rise to the level of impeachable offenses and Mr. Cheney should be impeached and removed from office.
Among all voters, 52 percent believe Cheney has committed impeachable offenses, and 43 percent believe he should be impeached and removed from office while only 9 percent believe he’s guilty but should be allowed to complete his term.
If the extreme abuse of power and the myriad of other serious offenses that both Cheney and Bush are presiding over aren’t far more than enough to warrant impeachment , I’m wondering what it ‘would’ take to get these dim-wit voters to see the light. As far as I can see , the voters ONLY remove Presidents that preside over desperate financial times. Sadly , the difference between Right and Wrong seems to take a back-seat to individual finances and gets completely overlooked in favor of ‘how much food is in their refrigerator — right this minute’. When its all said and done and its time to back-up words with deeds — the self-rightous American voting public is far more interested in their own immediate well-being than living up to the high ideals we take so much pride in (freedom , democracy etc) . We used to be the ‘good guys’. They don’t even seem to be able to look more than a day or 2 ahead to see that on our present course (deficit spending , inflation , value of the $$$ etc.) , even their ‘finances’ will be in shambles , soon. What does it take ??
The cost of some of his impeachable offences is adding up:
(Yahoo!). But no money for sick children who cannot afford insurance.
Analyze, Nancy, analyze!
BEFORE any impeachment hearings, 55% of voters believe Bush has committed impeachable offenses.
Imagine what the percentage will be when the details hit the MSM.
The breakdown:
1- 75% of Democrats (the base- better not turn them off)
2- 60% of Independents (the voters we need to win)
3- 30% of Republicans (pure gravy)
The voters are frustrated; they want Congress to begin hearings.
It’s a no-brainer: the pro-impeachment numbers will then go up.
And when the treasonous facts are exposed in the media,
A CRITICAL MASS of 69% will be pro-impeachment:
90% Dem, 75% Ind, 40% Rep.

We need to begin holding our representatives responsible for their actions and votes.
Diane Feinstein is being censured for her vote on the Attorney General nomination of Mukasey by her constituents, we need to do the same to Nancy Pelosi, Steney Hoyers, John Conyers, Debbie Wasserman-Schultz, Harry Reid, and any other democrat in congress that refuses to act towards impeaching cheney based on the revelations exposed in house resolutions 799 and 333.
If you chose to ignore ‘We the People’, you will no longer be permitted to continue representing us!
Balls in your court Congress…
