There's a major flaw with your poll.
The poll asks: "If President Bush Does the 3 Things Described, Is he daring Congress to Impeach Him?", yet both of your possible responses speak to validity and justification, not "daring."
If I select No, am I saying that "No, I don't think he is daring Congress", or "No I don't think it's enough justification to impeach him" ? It is ambiguous.
Further still, if I select Yes, am I saying that "Yes, I think he is daring Congress" or "Yes, I think this is enough to impeach him."
I think that yes, he is daring Congress, and no, this isn't an impeachable offense. If bad policy decisions were enough for impeachment, we'd have a lot more impeached Presidents. Do I think it would be a poor decision, and do I think that Bush HAS made impeachable offenses? Yes. But this alone isn't enough.
P.S. I agree with you in concept 90% of the time, but you've got to tone down the "impeach bush" argument, or you'll never swing the other 50% over to your side with such dramatic assumptions. People have a hard time agreeing with a person with such bloodlust, regardless of which side they're on.
