5. I'm assuming you mean to the Republicans
If we impeach him, he will become a rallying cry for the right-wingers to try to regain control. I'm all for weakening the GOP as much as possible before removing Bush.

He is effectively useless as a campaign tool for GOP incumbents and candidates because no one wants to be associated with him. But if we push for impeachment, then the GOP candidates have a tool with which to rally the wingnuts- "the evil power of the Democrats who impeached our great leader".

He will go down in history as probably the worst President in our country's history. That won't change. But keeping him in office while we use the power of Congressional investigations to remove the corrupt members of the GOP will keep him from becoming a martyr.
