Really, I'm curious. For those of you who think that the president (and possibly the VP) need to be impeached for whatever crimes they committed, what purpose does it serve? Will impeaching them somehow stop the war, bring the troops home, and solve every other problem? Does it just serve to send a message and take frustration out on someone?
If Bush and/or Cheney are impeached, what happens after that?
Power is given back to Congress and the people, which is where it belongs.
The Executive Branch, especially in the last 6.5 years, has had WAY too much power.
Next up is passing a constitutional amendment that lowers the veto-override threshold from 2/3 down to 60%. I'm a bit worried of what would happen as a result in a two-party system, however. Guess we may need to hold off on that one.
