Can We Impeach Yet?

Via Atrios we get this from Rude Pundit about Dubya's fixation with Saddam's captured pistol:
Exactly how may laws, federal and D.C., might the President be breaking with his possession of that firearm? Did he receive a background check for the transfer of ownership? Is Bush licensed to possess a firearm in a federal facility? The District of Columbia prohibits firearms to be gifts. How many people are implicated in Bush's firearm possession?
To recap, we already know that Bush desecrated the flag (on multiple occassions) in violation of federal law. Now we find that he has most likely violated multiple gun possession laws.

Thankfully, these don't rise to the Republican definition of "high crimes and misdemeanors" like, say, fellatio. Oh, I forgot, Clinton wasn't impeached for the sex, it was because he lied about it. I'm sure we're all thankful that Bush has never lied about anything as important as sex.
