I-M-P-E-A-C-H-M-E-N-T

Shhhhh. Dare I even utter that word? Tell me, friends, dare I?

Perhaps -- given a recent poll that found that a majority of Americans think that Bush should be impeached, or at least that Congress should consider impeaching him, if he illegally spied on Americans. See here. And here. (And see here for Bush's plunging poll numbers.)

After Downing Street, which commissioned the poll, responds here. See also Democrats.com here.

For all the latest impeachment-related news, see the Impeach Bush Coalition here.

As I've said before (see here and here), I'm not yet an advocate of impeachment, but it's worth listening to the case that is already being made.

And, of course, it's also worth demanding accountability from the president. Americans must demand that Bush be held accountable for his actions.

Did he illegally spy on Americans? Did he break the law? Did he violate the trust of the American people?

If so, is impeachment not the proper response from Congress?
