The Case for Impeachment:

The Legal Argument for Removing President George W. Bush from Office
Dave Lindorff and Barbara Olshansky

Dave Lindorff and Barbara Olshansky are co-authors of "The Case for Impeachment: The Legal Argument for Removing President George W. Bush from Office"

The co-authors review several of what they consider impeachable actions by President Bush, including lying to Congress about the need to invade Iraq for possession of weapons of mass destruction, refusing to cooperate with the congressional 9/11 Commission probes, and obstructing justice in protecting the person responsible for revealing that former Ambassador Joseph Wilson’s wife, Valerie Plame, was an undercover CIA operative. The authors suggest that impeachment should be a key issue this election year and impeachment legislation should be submitted to the next House Judiciary Committee.
