Impeachment of President George Bush and Vice-President Richard Cheney

This is a Petition to the United States House of Representatives to bring charges against (Impeach) the President and Vice President of the United States of America.

President George W. Bush and Vice President Richard Cheney have violated their oath to uphold the Constitution of the United States and have committed high crimes, including but not limited to:

1) The Offense of Wiretapping Surveillance in Defiance of the Law;

President Bush and Vice-President Cheney admitted to ordering the National Security Agency to conduct electronic surveillance of American civilians without seeking warrants from the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Court of Review, duly constituted by Congress in 1978, in violation of Title 50 United States Code, Section 1805;

2) The Offence of Lying and Inducing America to Support a War

President Bush and Vice-President Cheney intentionally misled the Congress and the public regarding the threat from Iraq in order to justify a war against Iraq, intentionally conspired with others to defraud the United States in connection with the war against Iraq in violation of Title 18 United States Code, Section 371;

3) The Offense of Reckless Indifference to the Lives and Welfare of American Troops;

President Bush and Vice-President Cheney failed to provide US soldiers with bulletproof vests or appropriately armored vehicles. A recent Pentagon study disclosed that proper bulletproof vests would have saved hundreds of lives. Furthermore, as the Downing Street memo revealed, they had no serious plan for the aftermath of the war. President Bush and Vice-President Cheney have demonstrated a complete disregard for the welfare of the troops and an utter indifference to the need for proper governance of a country after occupation. The result has been an endless war that has cost U.S. taxpayers over $350 billion with 3,000 U.S. soldiers killed and over 21,000 wounded.

4) The Offense of Torture in Violation of U.S. Laws and Treaties.

President Bush and Vice-President Cheney conspired to commit the torture of prisoners in violation of the "Federal Torture Act" Title 18 United States Code, Section 113C, the UN Torture Convention and the Geneva Convention, which under Article VI of the Constitution are part of the "supreme Law of the Land.
