Only two presidents have been impeached?

Andrew Johnson and Bill Clinton. Both were acquitted at trial?

Which just goes to show; if you're going to make a mistake in office, you better hope it's the kind that ends with over 100,000 killed in a foreign occupation built on lies, and not the kind that ends with semen on a girls dress.

Serves me right for challenging his sales predictions!

Bet with dsisister44: Red Steel 2 will sell 1 million within it's first 365 days of sales.

Do you find this information dubious? I am not sure what the point of the post is, but that information is correct.

Hey it's the Democrats fault.  They're too chicken to impeach Bush because they think it will blow the election.

Heck they probably want him around to look bad.

My point is only two have been impeached. They missed bush, I don't know why they let him lead for this long.

Honey, I've said it before and I'll say it again.

I didn't know Clinton was impeached. I thought Nixon was.

The House Judiciary Committee approved articles of impeachment against Nixon, but he resigned before the House could debate and act on it.

George W. Bush has had the support of the House and Senate for the war in Iraq, it is (nearly) impossible to prove that Bush knew the intelligence was incorrect which is what it would take for an impeachment to be successful, and (generally speaking) voters would punish the Democrats if they did impeach Bush because it would be seen as a partisan political move.



Kennedy and Johnson were only tried, they never actually been impeached.

 

NIxon would've been impeached but when he realised that he resigned. About Bush, he got congress permission to go to war based on the evidence they all saw. Oh well and they did not impeach other interventionist presidents did they?

Teddy Roosevelt, William McKinley, Woodrow WIlson, Kennedy, Johnson, Reagan (they all loved their little wars, and no one thought about impeaching them) so dont say Bush is all evil because they've done it as well.
