Somebody challenged me to support my assertion that Bush is just like Nixon. I will let former White House counsel John Dean do that for me.

And to the question of whether illegal wiretapping is an impeacheable offense Dean offers this;

There can be no serious question that warrantless wiretapping, in violation of the law, is impeachable. After all, Nixon was charged in Article II of his bill of impeachment with illegal wiretapping for what he, too, claimed were national security reasons.
