New Harris Poll: Impeachment included (w/poll)

Sun Oct 23, 2005 at 03:40:38 PM PDT

I took a Harris Poll this weekend that focused on politics.  It was one of the more extensive Harris political polls that I've taken.  The biggest surprise question to me was about impeachment:

Next, we have some questions about some major political controversies. If the President of the United States is accused of misconduct while in  office, and members of the U.S. House of Representatives decide that the  evidence of possible misconduct is convincing, then the House can  impeach the president. After the president is impeached, the U.S. Senate would hold a trial to decide whether the president should be removed from  office.

Poll

If the Congress holds impeachment hearings and decides that President George W. Bush did not tell the truth about his reasons for going to war with Iraq would you oppose or favor the impeachment of President George W. Bush?
