Impeachment of President Bush

Paper Summary:

This paper outlines the follies and negligence of the presidency of George W. Bush. It cites several mistakes that he has made while in office, but at the same time argues against his impeachment. The paper suggests that impeachment would only result in a further decline in the American people's ability to trust their leaders and it expounds on these points.

From the Paper:

"Imagine a hypocrite. Imagine a coward sending thousands of people to their deaths to do his biddings that were established on false claims. Imagine a man who can blatantly lie to the masses but never admit he was wrong. Now imagine a country that would elect this person to their highest position of power. Twice. President George W. Bush has done several things wrong in office aside from claiming there were weapons of mass destruction in Iraq. He has also destroyed a budget surplus from the Clinton administration, altered the meaning of habeas corpus, and handled the most devastating natural disaster in recent years extremely poorly. Even though President Bush is guilty of all these atrocities on the American public, the House of Representatives should not bring forward articles of impeachment. Doing so would only result in a further decline in the American people's ability to trust their leaders."
