Biden: Bush Bombs Iran And I’ll Move To Impeach
Presidential hopeful Joe Biden.
Joe says that if Bush bombs Iran without getting congressional approval, he’ll move to impeach him.
From Seacoastline.com:
PORTSMOUTH — Presidential hopeful Delaware Sen. Joe Biden stated unequivocally that he will move to impeach President Bush if he bombs Iran without first gaining congressional approval.
Biden spoke in front of a crowd of approximately 100 at a candidate forum held Thursday at Seacoast Media Group. The forum focused on the Iraq war and foreign policy. When an audience member expressed fear of a war with Iran, Biden said he does not typically engage in threats, but had no qualms about issuing a direct warning to the Oval Office.
“The president has no authority to unilaterally attack Iran, and if he does, as Foreign Relations Committee chairman, I will move to impeach,” said Biden, whose words were followed by a raucous applause from the local audience.
Biden said he is in the process of meeting with constitutional law experts to prepare a legal memorandum saying as much and intends to send it to the president.
When local resident Joel Carp asked Biden why not impeach now, given what has already been done, Biden said it was a valid point, but might not be constitutionally valid and potentially counterproductive. A case for impeachment must have clear evidence, Biden said, and blame should be directed at the right parties.
“If you’re going to impeach George Bush, you better impeach (Vice President Dick) Cheney first,” said Biden, again drawing applause.

NOT if he bombs Congress first.
November 30th, 2007 at 12:47 pmDoes Biden even have any real influence–other than what is in his head? There is a reason why we have a separation of powers, folks.
November 30th, 2007 at 12:48 pmLove this quote from the Murtha thread; it applies to all too many in Congress:
“Congressmen who willfully take action during wartime that damage morale and undermine the military are saboteurs and should be arrested, exiled, or hanged.” - Abraham Lincoln.

November 30th, 2007 at 1:56 pmHe’s a fucking idiot. Like Bush didn’t have Congress’ approval for Iraq. They are all legends in their own minds.
November 30th, 2007 at 2:03 pmLeave it to James Taranto to “educate” the uneducated congress:

” … Biden–who as chairman of the Judiciary Committee presided over the travesties that were the Robert Bork and Clarence Thomas confirmation hearings–apparently is either ignorant or contemptuous of the Constitution. Presumably one of those legal experts will inform him that as a senator, he has no authority to “move to impeach” anyone. That power rests solely with the House.”

How the hell are we supposed to succesfully bomb Iran into quitting their nuke shit if they know an attack is coming?! Congress is the best place to find all of the government’s secrets exposed and out in the open. I say Fuck congress

November 30th, 2007 at 8:46 pmOld Joe Palooka Biden is at it again. What a useless waste of life he is.
November 30th, 2007 at 8:58 pmHow about impeaching Biden? He is nothing more than a simplistic moron.
Kurt: you’ve got the right idea! It is time to mount up!

nice post you are absolutely correct. Furthermore, i don’t see what they would impeach him for, the only thing limiting the president constitutional powers as commander in chief is the war powers act and even that allows for the president to deploy troops for something like 90 days before congress (I forget which house if not both) would have to vote to recall the troops. Biden is a freekin idiot, he probably couldn’t get the votes to recall any military action let alone impeach.
