    nevetS - terrorism is certainly still a hot button.
    I think this thread is as much about : do people actually believe that their relevant governments are telling them.
    Not quite sure exactly where AC is coming from - yet ;)
    AC, are you saying that Halliburton, through their asociation with Cheney, engineered the whole thing in Iraq. Or indeed the whole Osama thing.
    Why ?? - note, I don't know all the industry's Halliburton have their fingers in.
    Even with a puppet government in Iraq, the wouldn't get control of the oil supply there. Now, if the US took the whole of the middle east .....

    LOL... If that is the case, somebody needs to remove 24 from their Tivo season pass list.

    I don't speak URL. Could you possibly answer the question? Heck, I'll take a shot. Nixon was not impeached, nor was he removed from office. He resigned. Articles of Impeachment had been drawn up. To the best of my knowledge only two presidents have been impeached, one in my life time as a matter of fact.

    More specifically, only two US Presidents have been Impeached.

    Bill Clinton - Convicted, but no removed from office
    Andrew Johnson - Acquitted
    Richard Nixon - Resigned

    The Articles of Impeachment for Nixon can be seen here: http://watergate.info/

    You'll get no argument from me, reading the Articles of Impeachment, the crimes listed are certainly Impeachable offenses.

    However, with all due respect, you are wrong. Only two Presidents have ever been Impeached; Johnson and Clinton. One acquitted and one convicted, and neither removed.

    Your history lesson today brought to you by the letters G and B, and the number 1.

    Yeah and Barry Bonds never took steroids either, so what Nixon resigned or he would have been impeached the next day.

    I call that impeached, you can call it what you want MIA. :eek:

    I did not get thrown out of my house, I left when the Sheriff got there and told me to leave or he was going to arrest me. :p

    So what you are saying is that you purposely mis-state facts, because if you say so, it must be so? Am I understanding that correctly? Or are you saying that the facts do not matter so long as you interpret them the way you want to?

    Anyway, NO, it is not the same thing. Impeachment does not remove a President from office. Look back just a few short years. So even if Nixon had been Impeached, he would not have been told to leave because he was convicted. There is another step in the process.

    My suggestion is to audit a poli-sci or history class at the local community college. That or stop relying on the net for your information :)

    Arnold will go the same place Jessie Ventura went after they chew him up out there.

    He is a numbskull for supporting Bush in 2004 and will pay for that by getting booted out of California :eek:

    How do you like paying Arnold and George $3.50 a gallon for gas TOOT :confused: :p

    well, no way to know if everyone would be happy, as it's illegal for him to become president :)

    I don't know. I thought Arnold was a joke to start out with, but he's been doing some good things lately. He's obviously trying to put himself into that Reagan mold - he's going to use the power of the people to fight the state legislature. It backfired last time, with his big measures not getting passed, but it set the tone. I'd say he's a shoe in for re-election with the fact that his supporting base is up and there is nobody left to challenge him.
