5. You'll keep hearing it from me, too
There have been two presidential impeachments in American history: Andrew Johnson, who pissed off the Republicans over Reconstruction and was impeached for trying to get rid of the Secretary of War in violation of the unconstitutional Tenure of Office Act (which required that all firings of officeholders had to be approved by the Senate), and Bill Clinton, who pissed off the Republicans by his very existence and was impeached for lying about being blown by Monica Lewinsky.

George W. Bush is guilty of actual crimes that carry penalties ranging from hard time to death. There's nothing political here: sic Eliot Spitzer on this administration and someone will be at the end of a rope.

Bush won't survive an impeachment inquiry. No politician who cares about his own career would vote to acquit.
