Sure, the vice president may have overseen the office, but my point is that it will be very difficult to point fingers at those who weren't directly implicated. This isn't a fast food restaruant we're talking about, people at the highest level of government aren't held accountable for what their subordinates do, and they know that, so they cover their rear ends so that when things like this surface, they can just point fingers at everyone else.

As far as impeachment, we had a chance to route the Bush administration in '04 and we, as a nation, collectively said what happened was permissible. The people have spoken. There is nothing for congress to do.

Don't you have to commit treason or give aid and comfort to the enemy to be impeached? I don't think this would qualify.

That brings up an interesting point. Is it illegal to deliberatly mislead the American people? Is it a crime to start a war under false pertenses?

Clinton was impeached for lying to a grand jury, which was not treason nor was it aiding an enemy.
