If Obama were elected president and broke all his promises, would you want him impeached?

Especially regarding Iraq withdrawal. Willing to bet a small fortune he doesn't get us out of Iraq.

    Lies (like Bush did) are insufficient grounds for impeachment, Open deception (like what Nixon did with watergate) IS grounds for impeachment

    Oh you see.. this is the beauty of liberals.. they will forget his promises and he will make new ones.. he will deny what he said and turn it around so that he will look brilliant.. Have you noticed the added word they are now saying... they are not saying Troop withdraw... See what Clinton said at the DNC, "Barack Obama will end the war in Iraq responsibly and bring our troops home a first step to repairing our alliances around the world." See the key words, "end the war in Iraq responsibly." That is what Bush has been saying for months... We want to end the war responsibly... It is funny how a lot of people have not seen this addition.. it is not responsible to simply just pull them out...

    SO if he wins and doesn't pull the troops immediately this is what he will say... He will say he vowed to end the war responsibly and it isn't responsible to pull them out now... Basically

    in accordance to the form: "Article 2, area 4 The President, vp and all Civil officers of u.s., would be removed from workplace on Impeachment for, and Conviction of, Treason, Bribery, or different intense Crimes and Misdemeanors." the only element i might say must be impeachable is bribery, which only approximately all intense profile politicians are responsible of in some style or yet another. it certainly relies upon on the form you interpret it. The Semper Fi dude above me does not seem conversing from the form, yet from his own thoughts on no rely if or no longer he has a similar opinion with what Obama is doing. in spite of the incontrovertible fact that, Obama, besides as only approximately each flesh presser in the federal government recently act against the form, which works against their oath. to no longer sound like a cliché liberal (which i'm no longer) yet while Obama might desire to be impeached, Bush might desire to have been for specific. Hell, maximum present day presidents might desire to have been.

    If a president could be impeach for breaking promises, Bush would have been impeach from the get go.

    If this was possible every single president of the U.S. could have been impeached. Politicians can't keep all their promises. This is not because they are all liars. Good intentions are sometimes not enough.

    Unfortunately breaking promises isn't an impeachable offense, otherwise every President would be impeached.

  • Sure, but every single politician that gets elected lies.

    All of them make grandiose promises that are never honored.

    They say anything to get elected.

    Why the American people continue to vote for the pre-chosen candidates of two corporations (RNC and DNC) is sad.

    Breaking promises isn't grounds for impeachment, sorry.

    And no one can get us out of Iraq immediately...If they tell you they will, they are lying

    All his promises??

    If everyone of his promises.. (this goes the same for McCain) then yes. Mind you, not all goals can be met by any president.

    As for Iraq, I think he can.

    this issue was never "could we withdraw". The issue is "Will" we do it..
