Lying to Congress is a crime

[ck4829]

Everybody sane agrees, lying during a State of the Union Address IS A CRIME!

Bush lied to Congress, and to make it worse he lied while giving a SOTU.

Bush's 16 words should be his downfall, if the Congress can not begin a call for proceedings of Impeachment, then maybe it should be time to do something drastic (Like petition a third party to intervene).

4. Legally

3. Common sense surely supports that!

That lie cost 2,000 American lives & God knows how many innocent Iraqi lives, simply due to geography. That's not to mention those whose bodies were shattered for life.

Should be treasonous to lead a country falsely into war.

5. Mannthrax Coulter believes it's a crime . . .

in her book "treason". That's how she defends McCarthy.

Of course, what she doesn't say is that the conviction was not FOR being a communist, nor for treason, but for "lying to Congress".

Well, I guess that it's not a crime when it's YOUR (repuke) guy who committed it . . .
