Being Unpopular, Sadly, Is Not An Impeachable Offence

George McGovern at the Washington Post is calling for us to impeach George Bush. Lots of people in the blogging world and on forums are pointing out that Bush can't really be impeached because he hasn't technically committed a crime.

Why let that stop us, America? If you can't expose a criminal because he hasn't committed a crime, just do what they did in the old days: hang him. Heft up your torches! Distribute the pitchforks! We're headed to the White House, and we mean to have us an old-style lynchin'!

Remember, America: George Bush Eats Fried Puppy-Dogs, Alive.

Well, there was enough to draw up Articles of Impeachment (originally H. Res. 333, now H. Res. 799) against Dick Cheney. There'd be plenty on George too, but none of the politicians really want to go after him. He's a second term president with less than a year left and they don't have anything to gain by rocking the boat except the irritation of their peers.
