Poll: Americans Favor Bush Impeachment For Illegal Domestic Spying

A poll conducted by the highly-regarded, non-partisan polling company, Zogby International shows that over half of Americans believe George W. Bush should be impeached if he wiretapped American citizens without the required judicial oversight.

The poll, commissioned by AfterDowningStreet.org and taken January 9-12, asked respondents the following question: "If President Bush wiretapped American citizens without the approval of a judge, do you agree or disagree that Congress should consider holding him accountable through impeachment?"

The survey found that 52 percent agreed that this should be an impeachable offense.

"The American people are not buying Bush's outrageous claim that he has the power to wiretap American citizens without a warrant. Americans believe terrorism can be fought without turning our own government into Big Brother," said AfterDowningStreet.org co-founder Bob Fertik.
