Senate candidates asked about Bush impeachment
Andy Warren (said yes) and Patrick Murphy (no) were asked at a Quaker forum this week.


Andy Warren, the Republican-turned-Democrat running for Congress, says President Bush should be subjected to impeachment hearings over the Iraq war.

"If I were in Congress today, and if there was a vote on the floor based on the Conyers report, I'd support it," Warren said yesterday, referring to a document issued by U.S. Rep. John Conyers Jr. (D. Mich.)

"I believe that there is enough in that report to begin the process of impeachment hearings."
Conyers contends that Bush misled Congress and the public about the reasons to go to war and manipulated intelligence information. He has called on Congress to create a committee to investigate possible impeachable offenses.

Warren's opponent in the May primary for the Eighth Congressional District, Iraq war veteran Patrick Murphy, said he wasn't ready to take that step. Murphy, a lawyer and former prosecutor, said he wants to review Conyers' report before making a decision.
