So, one way to get rid of Bush is to demand an investigation of the lies that got us into the war, and the war crimes committed during it. That way, you can get him on those "high crimes", or the "misdemeanor" of lyging to an investigation.
Like someone said, though, the best option is just to get behind a candidate who can beat him next time, so he doesn't come back.

President's (and everyone else) are allowed to lie. It's not against the law to tell a lie in most cases. However, if you are under oath in front of our Nation's Judicial system and lie that's a different story all together.
The President lying under oath is the ultimate slap in the face. He showed total disrespect for our Judicial system. He could have always pleaded the 5th and not said anything.
