Bush, Rumsfeld, Cheney, et al, have done things that are just illegal and it's already out in the open. For one, Bush authorized wiretaps without getting permission from the courts. Incredibly, authorization could even have legally been gotten AFTER the taps were done so there wasn't anything preventing them from doing them -- they just didn't want what they were doing to be known. The Army officer who did the Abu Ghraib investigation found out that Rumsfeld knew it was going on months before it was made public, meaning he willingly allowed illegal acts to be done. And I believe there's evidence that Cheney eats babies and kills old ladies. Well, maybe that last one's not exactly a sure thing...
There's plenty of reasons and evidence to impeach Bush and maybe Cheney, but some Democrats have said that they know they wouldn't be able to get anything through Congress and that it would derail a lot of the things they are trying to do that directly affect the country.
It's sad. The Republicans pursued Clinton like he was Idi Amin because he fooled around with an intern but the present Congress won't go after a president who ignores and breaks the law.
