Impeaching George Bush

I meant to link to this last week, I found it via Steve who provides his own comments here.

Elizabeth Holtzman argues that George Bush has done enough in office to be impeached, and she doesn’t pull any punches:

As a matter of constitutional law, these and other misdeeds constitute grounds for the impeachment of President Bush. A President, any President, who maintains that he is above the law–and repeatedly violates the law–thereby commits high crimes and misdemeanors, the constitutional standard for impeachment and removal from office. A high crime or misdemeanor is an archaic term that means a serious abuse of power, whether or not it is also a crime, that endangers our constitutional system of government.
