The buck stops where?

Our delusional president laments the "intelligence failure" that identified nonexistent WMD in Iraq and admits he was "unprepared" for war.

    @Mr E

    One Good Reason:

    Well I have more than one good reason that Bush should be impeached. But lets deal with a violation of the constitution as a high crime and misdemeanor, he allowed torture to take place. In fact he insisted that is should. That is reason number 1.

    Reason number 2, he okayed spying on Americans! Another violation of law, high crime. 3. Went to war based on lies, high crime or misdemeanor? both. 4. He outed a CIA officer. That is a high crime. I came up with four reasons just off the top of my head. If a President can be impeached for lying about a blow job, not a high crime, but a misdemeanor crime, then a President can be impeached for actually violating the constitution.
