By a margin of 50% to 44%, Americans say
that [George W.] Bush should be impeached if he lied about the war in
Iraq, according to a new poll commissioned by
AfterDowningStreet.org.

The poll was conducted by Ipsos Public
Affairs
, the highly-regarded non-partisan polling company. The poll interviewed
1,001 U.S. adults on October 8-9.

The poll found that 50% agreed with the
statement:

“If [George W.] Bush did not tell the
truth about his reasons for going to war with Iraq, Congress should consider holding him
accountable by impeaching him.”

44% disagreed, and 6% said they didn't know
or declined to answer.

“The results of this poll are truly
astonishing,” said AfterDowningStreet.org co-founder Bob Fertik…. a solid
plurality of Americans want Congress to consider removing Bush from the White
House.”

20% of Republicans
polled favored impeachment
