Why? This was the MAIN reason for invasion after the security concerns that 9/11 brought to light.



You don't know what you're talking about. Please read this: Cornell Law School explains the law and procedure of impeachment., since you apparently didn't read it when I posted it earlier.

Under the constitution, a president can be impeached for almost any kind of misconduct. There is no requirement of "undisputable [sic] evidence." There is no requirement that Bush knew there were "absolutely NO WMD's." The actual legal standards for impeachment are set forth in the constitution and in federal case law, and they bear no resemblance to the fantasy you are trying to palm off on us here.

This makes just about no sense at all.
