Secret war ordered?
I am always skeptical of information from blogs. But suppose for a second that this IS true. In that case, wouldn't it be obvious that the president had committed an impeachable offense?

Last I knew, ONLY Congress could declare war. And presidents have no right to initiate hostilities of any kind without Congress' consent -- except to repel an attack.

3. I'd say "Enough of this waiting the bastard out. Time to impeach him."
And I am one of those who does look at that process as a very last resort. I am wary of the Dems appearing to be like the GOP who use impeachment as a poltical weapon. But if he's doing that shit, I say check our Constitution--there's probably a huge skidmark of shit on it, from where that Monkey wiped his miserable ass on it.

5. I'd think "Bush has totally lost it"
And I'd think that impeachment was the only option.
