Do you think the House will start impeachment proceedings against Gonzalez?

If there are impeachment hearings, that will give the Democrats subpoena power for Rove, Miers, and other White House insiders. There is little chance any court will recognize executive privilege during an impeachment hearing or trial. Is Bush stumbling to his Waterloo/Watergate?|||It amazes me how many people don't know the law of the land and insist on making their own interpretation. Yes he is impeachable, any appointed member of the president's cabinet is. Impeachment is the process of determining whether the person committed a crime and can be tried in a court of law. Personally, I think the detractors are figuring out the best timeline for controlling the 2008 race for WH, House and Senate. As this unfolds and more names come up, they could be held up for scrutiny. Names we may see: Bush, Rove, Miers. Gonzalez, Rumsfeld. Names we won't see: Rice %26amp; Cheney.|||No, he did nothing illegal.

I wish the people in this country understood impeachment better...|||No





There has to be a crime before any impeachment proceedings|||For the executive branch, only those who have allegedly committed "treason, bribery, or other high crimes and misdemeanors" may be impeached. Gonzales does not met this standard.





US Attorneys serve at the pleasure of the presidency, they can be removed at will. They were. End of story. Carter did the same thing, actually worse, no hoopala.





Amy said: "Impeachment is the process of determining whether the person committed a crime and can be tried in a court of law" No it's not. Impeachment is a two staged process to remove someone from office. The first involves impeaching the person (the House filing articles of impeachment), then the Senate tries the accused. The issue doesn't go to a court of law, it's to remove someone from office. Your arrogance is silly in light of you lack of complete understanding.|||It's just a show they have more important things to do like fund the troops.|||Just end up being another waste of time and money.|||All of you baby libs have learned a new word. No one will be. Neither did anything to be. What a foolish childish uninformed question.
