House Judiciary Committee hearing on Executive Powers

Before Congress excused themselves for paying attention to the current events that are happening in our country they had a hearing on the Executive Powers of the Executive Office. The Chairman of the Committee, reminded everyone that it was NOT impeachment hearings, although the content(almost 6 hours) of this hearing sure did sound like talk of impeachment. There were obvious skews of opinion, that did seem to be based on party lines. Congressman Lofgren was a heavy opposer of this hearing, and he made it clear by his biased opinions. It was made evident by video that there were some serious objections to the way that the Chairman Conyers was running the hearing. Several times certain people were reminded that their time had expired, and Congressman Smith sitting directly to the left of Conyers was saying something angrily off-mic. The panels mostly adhered to the rules, other than Bugliosi, who constantly named names. An overview of this hearing really just enforces the need for the Impeachment of George Bush. Following that an Impeachment of Richard Cheney. This would lead to Nancy Peloski to be President of the United States. Now this of course would also be a disaster, because she thinks the founding fathers made the dollar bill. But there were many statements in this hearing that gave great grounds for the Impeachment of the Bush Administration. The President mislead the American People into a War with Iraq. That the Bush Administration has conducted themselves secretively in effort to thwart the validity of the US Constitution. I cannot agree with Professor Presser who constantly states there are no impeachable offenses committed by President Bush. There were 35 articles that were written on Impeachment. If you can agree with just ONE of these articles, then Bush should be Impeached. I think Professor Presser is in favor of a dictatorship, simply because he thinks positively that the President should not be held accountable for his actions, no matter have grave that they may have been. If you take Professor Rabkin's position, no President should be held accountable for anything, because he doesn't believe that the President can be bad. Professor Rabkin is a very naive person who won't take a stand for himself talking about the "Crazies". Congressman Nadler got the hearing back on track, by stating that impeachment should be for the executive's office abuse of power.

To Impeach Bush there has to be an Impeachment Inquiry. Let's just skip that and have a Vote on the House Floor.
