I am an Englishman, and of course I was not taught anything about the constitution at school - but I have picked up a bit and bob here and there, and it seems to me that the Congress is actually in defiance of the Constitution when they pass a motion that the President can wage war without congressional approval. It may not be possible to impeach Bush, Cheney and Rumsfeld, but I wonder if there is any way to hold the members of Congress to account. Their passing of the motion that the President may conduct military operations without Congressional approval appears to be an abnegation of duty - illegal under the constitution.
Are there any moves to bring criminal charges against members of the congress (both Democrat and Republican) for treason?
