Quite frankly anyone who votes for any incumbent is a traitor to their country at this point. Anyone spouting left/right crap is one as well. Neither party does anything close to what they say they stand for. It's all a sham and any vote for anyone currently serving office should result in the forfeiture of their voting rights.
Yes - it has gotten that serious folks.

hey, hey, hey....just because ol' ronny had over 60 people in his administration get convicted for the Iran-contra scandal, doesn't mean he should have been impeached....now....if he lied about having a sexual affair in the white house, then impeachment is a must.
Reagan owned up to it unlike the current Potus who owns up to nothing.

Why the looong side trip to focus on Bush, as always seems to end up with anything about Obama? It just struck me as quite a lot of effort there to argue the points of a man I've seen no one much defend and hasn't had power in over 4 years now.
The President is Obama...Not Bush.
Was Reagan impeached for it?
99th Congress (1985-1987) Senate: 53(R); 47 (D) House: 253 (D); 182(R)
100th Congress (1987-1989) Senate: 55(D); 45(R) House: 258 (D); 177 (R)
mpeachment is analogous to indictment in regular court proceedings, while trial by the other house is analogous to the trial before judge and jury in regular courts. Typically, the lower house of the legislature will impeach the official and the upper house will conduct the trial.
Democratic majority of the House at the time, then Democratic majorities after.
Because if you do some checking a lot of the stuff that Obama is getting blamed for started under Bush. Over 6000 soldiers and a million plus innocent civilians are dead because of the lies he told America to start two wars. Now has Obama done anything as bad as that?

Gee ask the congress at the time why they didn't. which woulda been
99th Congress (1985-1987) Senate: 53(R); 47 (D) House: 253 (D); 182(R)
100th Congress (1987-1989) Senate: 55(D); 45(R) House: 258 (D); 177 (R)

So
mpeachment is analogous to indictment in regular court proceedings, while trial by the other house is analogous to the trial before judge and jury in regular courts. Typically, the lower house of the legislature will impeach the official and the upper house will conduct the trial.

Democratic majority of the House at the time, then Democratic majorities after.
So why wasn't Reagan impeached?
Ask the Democrats.

Haha that made me laugh....
I am a conspiracy person which is why I am on this site so yes, that is my take on the Kennedy issue. I belive that Allen Dulles put together an operation after being approached by someone in the administration about the dangers of Kennedy's foreign policy.
The issues you mentioned may have played a minor role but it was the nuclear issue that was the most dangerous. Remember that Kennedy was arming up Turkey with nukes and Kruschev was adament that it wouldn't happen, then the whole Cuba mess and I believe someone, close to Kennedy, said....whoa...we gotta stop this.
Dulles was a lifer in the CIA and recently fired by Kennedy so he would have the connections and motivation to make this happen.
It all makes sense. The framing of Oswald was pure CIA from beginning to end...

no worries the only people who want obama impeached are republicans who don't like the fact that they can't commit as many crimes since they don't have a toady in office.
