Why is no one talking about the finding that Bush lied about the Iraq War? Why is no one calling for his impeachment??

 It came out recently that Bush lied about the Iraq War, and the office of defence, gave him a report that said that Iraq had nothing to do with 911 and that Osama Bin Laden was not there, also it was said that  the liklihood of sadaam heusein helping Osama was very low. Bush and his pupeteer Dick Cheney  rewrote the reports and went on television, completely lying to the American people. In turn, the thousands of lives that were sacrificed  because a president wanted to prove to his father that he was better than him.  Then he  conveniently  created a law that states that if  america feels that someone will attack  us, we can attack them first without provication!!What he has done should be considered murder, and Bush should  be impeached and brought up on charges.  What makes me even more upset, is that the media will not talk about this!!!  Like I said people, we all need to be informed.

    " During the Iraq war, yes, we have lost approx. 4000 of our brave men and women and numerous other have been injured. All since 9/11/2005. In ONE DAY, terrorists killed as many on our soil in three different places, as well as injuring and orphaning how many others! Congress didn't have to be pushed to go to war! All they had to do is not vote for it if they had doubts! I thank Pres. Bush for the fact that he has kept the terrorists overseas for now. What happens if Obama is elected? "

    " It still amazes me that ignorance reigns in America. There were no WMD in Iraq. Saddam Hussein and Bin Laden were Enemies, not friends. In the 9/11 tragedy, 15 out of 19 terrorists were from Saudi Arabia (our friend???). None were from Iraq. Read to find out how many U.N. resolutions were ignored by Israel and what was done about it. Also, read about how Saddam Hussein came into power. Guess which powerful country endorsed him and supplied him with money and weapons? Clinton lied about a sexual affair and was impeached. Body count?0 "

    " to:"everyonehasone" and "xxx" I totally agree!! Thank you for being informed citizens. My only question is why was Obama even brought into the conversation, I was talking about Bush and his actions. But I know that those who love Bush cant see past the bushes! It is because of our Costitution that you can feel the way that you do. Freedom is a wonderful thing. "

    " So you want more taxes out of your pocket to go to the more than 3 trillion dollars Obama wants to drop into welfare so 'the people' can become more lazy, more dependant on government like the communist countries where the people there would love to be more like you where even our poorest people are considered rich. You want to live the communist philosophy of-like Obama told the plumber, "I don't want to punish your success, I just want to spread your wealth" to paraphrase. Obama wants to spend more of "OUR" money for us. So-that's-what-you-want-hmmm? "

    " There has been no declaration of war. This is just like Vietnam and Korea. Congress declared war on terrorism which gave Bush unheard powers above the Constitution. They did not define terrorism so Bush could and can attack anybody he wants. Washington does not follow the Constitution, hence the reason America is going to the dogs.Illegal immigrants, ballots in foreign langauges,public money to private corporations,taxes on wages, all violate the Constitution, the list is endless.If the Constitution was being followed and enforced the 911 group could have never entered this country.

To the benefit that you can sit in your comfortable house,chair,a.c.,job,not bombed out of your livelihood, you're alive to complain about how bad you have it in a blessed situation. Geaux tell it to someone who'll believe you, try in any one of those countries that don't have your blessed assurance, lost homes, family etc...you’ve got it too good and still you complain. Bush did what he had to so you could act f__lish in comfort. "

    " If we are going to start talking about the rules of the United Nations, your wonderful president Bush trampled all over their rules too!!! They did not find sufficiant evidence for the U.S to invade Iraq, but he totally ignored the U.N. and bombed Iraq anyway!!Why is it okay for our country to do things like that,but if someone does it to us,they are the bad guy? Personally I think we need to stop policing other countries and take care of home. And to "Mike", I got this "outrageous bull" from the Senate hearings on C-Span. "

    Get your head out of your arse. The findings that Bush LIED came from a Bi-Partisan commission (Republicans and Democrats). All that other junk you spewed is the propoganda from the right wing. Why do you think Bush has such a low approval rating (<30%). Once you die-hard Bush republicans accept that he was the worst in history, it'll be too late for you. "

    4. British as well as United States Intelligence reports citing that Iraq indeed had WMD's

    " To: xxx and rynellaresident, Congress had the exact same intelligence reports that President Bush had and yet they still found more than enough credible evidence to pass the resolution to invade Iraq. This is not President Bush's war alone. As you stated, only Congress can declare war, and they approved the invasion.
    As for the "swift decision" Sadaam Hussein broke or ignored 16 United Nations resolutions between the years of 1990-1999. How much more time should we have given him? Continued "

    " Bush pushed congress into making a "swift" decision just like he handled this "economic bailout". It baffles me for someone to sit here and comment Mr. Bush for anything. Sure we have not been attacked in over 7 years, but at what cost? The constitution that America was framed around,has been gangraped by Bush and those horrible people that he surrounds himself with. I am an American just as you are,and I love this country, but if you are completely honest with yourself, you must admit that Bush has not only disrespected us as citizens,but has dishonored his country.

    How about the fact that he perjured himself on the stand?? The fact charges were leveled against him whie in the presidental office??
    Conveinetly forgot about all this?
    And you still want to talk about President Bush's issues. He had a bad second four years I'll give that. Bowed down to opinion too much and made bad decisions. But his first years were pretty good. "

    " Frank Rizzo,
    You need to get your head out of the Right wing sand and quit listening to Sean Hannity and read a Civics 101 book. Bush did not ask for a declaration of war. The President cannot ask for a Declaration of WAR only congress can. Bush asked for the right to invade Iraq which he was granted based on contrived data that he manufactured to sell the invasion. Had congress known the truth in the beginning, we would not be in Iraq today. Bush is liar; the same as Clinton. "

    " President Bush should be commented and praised for protecting us for the last 7 years. We have not been attacked again since 9/11/01.
    I wonder what all of you Bush-haters would be saying right now had President Bush ignored the threats from Sadaam Hussein and he actually would have been successful in his efforts to attack us as well. After Sept. 11th, President Bush could not take that chance, He chose to ere on the side of protecting our country, and I am grateful to him that he did. "

    " Civics 101: The President cannot declare war without the Congress consent. This means that Congress went to war with Iraq not President Bush. Of course President Bush requested the declaration of war, but Congress voted and approved the war. So if we are going to go through impeachment procedures for the President due to the war, we should impeach most of the House and Senate as well. "
