Republican Senator Says Bush’s Approach on Iraq Is Driving Lawmakers to Consider Impeachment
WASHINGTON Mar 25, 2007 (AP)— With his go-it-alone approach on Iraq, President Bush is flouting Congress and the public, so angering lawmakers that some consider impeachment an option over his war policy, a senator from Bush’s own party said Sunday.
GOP Sen. Chuck Hagel of Nebraska, a member of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee and a frequent critic of the war, stopped short of calling for Bush’s impeachment. But he made clear that some lawmakers viewed that as an option should Bush choose to push ahead despite public sentiment against the war.
“Any president who says, I don’t care, or I will not respond to what the people of this country are saying about Iraq or anything else, or I don’t care what the Congress does, I am going to proceed if a president really believes that, then there are what I was pointing out, there are ways to deal with that,” said Hagel, who is considering a 2008 presidential run.
HLs Take
You know if Chuck Hagel wasn’t one of the owners of Diebold, ES&S, Seqouia voting systems, the ones that are responsible for Bush, and all the misery he has visited on the world, and the same voting systems he will use to try to get himself elected, I might almost like this guy. At least he is honest about Bush.
