Would Bush have been impeached?

This is why I think everyone, including low levels following orders, should be held accountable and severely punished, either financially or with jail time. If they knew it was wrong, but proceeded because it was ideologically sound for them, they should pay too. Might put a dent in this kind of shit. And Obama still is to blame. He is the prez and CIC. The buck stops with him.

Yes i agree that the buck stops with him, check my edit, i also believe that these people must be prosecuted.

That's absolutely true. These scandal add up to a crisis worse than Watergate.

Looking back at Watergate, the entire country turned on Nixon and his henchmen. By the time John Mitchell US Attorney General was indicted and sent to jail it was all over. Eric Holder is worse than Mitchell. And it is coming at a time when a police-state is being implemented, so every trick in the book will be foisted on the American public. It is a dangerous time. We will see if they have the courage to run these criminals out.

Quote from Clubber Lang:

If Bush was president during the same scandals- Benghazi, IRS, wire tapping, Fast and Furious, etc, etc, etc, etc would he have been impeached already?

Was there anything Bush / Cheney did that didn't have subterfuge, lying and scandal involved with it? I don't remember any repbulicans in outrage over their bull shit and lies. The IRS actions were wrong, if not criminal then immoral. Bengazi on the other hand looks like a mistake mixed with a screw up with some lying to the public thrown in for good measure. And we all know that has never happened by a president before, lying to the public on an important issue for political reasons, well not by a republican president (that last part is sarcasm eight) .

EDIT: Comparing this to watergate right now is premature, to say the least.

IRS and wiretap of the press is what is going to bring them down. Obama will do everything possible to keep it off of himself.

Let me see if I understand you. Blaming a video that a few hundred people had seen to hide the fact that AQ was still active and the admin didn't want to be exposed regarding that little fact because it might cost him the election doesn't rise to the level of a Watergate. We don't know it was a mistake because it was covered up, which makes it look like much more than a mistake. No one died in Watergate. Our people in Benghazi were left to die essentially, possibly for political reasons. Watergate is child's play, in my opinion.

What you are saying is Obama could of saved those peoples lives, I have seen nothing to even suggest that. This could blow up into something big but as of now it isn't on the scale of a watergate. The real danger for the Obama administration is if the IRS trail leads to the white house, that IMO would have a much greater chance of his downfall than Bengahzi.
