John Dean |

Like me, I bet there are a lot of people here who remember John Dean while watching those Watergate hearings daily on television in the Seventies. He was quite the witness stating that he told Nixon that there was a cancer on the Presidency. Of course, he went down with Nixon.
Now, he is on television promoting his new book. He states that Bush and his administration have committed impeachable offenses regarding lying about the reasons for invading Iraq. That these reasons are more serious than the reasons that brought down Nixon.
Is the issue the right of an administration to secrecy regarding its actions and decisions. JUst how far can a President go before he crosses the line?
Will Bush be "impeached"in the election in NOvember? |
Clarification/Follow-up by tomder55 on 04/05/04 5:03 am: If it could be proven that he intentionally misused information from the intelligence agencies could it be considered a "high crime " ? I don't know. Many in Congress are saying they voted for the war based on a false premise . Personally I do not think they have a case. The intelligence information that the Administration used was for the most part widely available to the key Congressional players from both parties. If the Administration is guilty of deception ,then the Congress is also complicit .
