Bush made several specific claims particularly related to the purchase of centerfuges, uranium from Niger, and mobile weapons labs that were demonstrably false based on the information available to him yet he repeated them anyway. Even so Democrats were not going to impeach him. Most Democrats were willing to just wait him out by the time they got power in 2007,

before Bush they beleived what Bush beleived .Bush did not lie

Bush did lie because he was told all of those things were not true and went public with them anyway.
1. Bush was told by Joseph Wilson, a Niger expert, that the uranium from Niger reports were obviously wrong.
2. Nuclear experts informed the CIA that the aluminum tubes were not the kind that could be used for centrifuges...this was ignored.
Both of these are things Bush said that were obvious lies that led to the war with Iraq.
Even so going back the Dems would not have impeached Bush for anything by the time they got in power, they didn't want to damage the country in that way when Bush would be gone in 2 years anyway.

Your question proves the OP's argument. GOP base voters are unable to grasp political reality.
Speaking of reality, hows the economy going? Did we get under 8 percent and the economy recover like the Chosen One said we would?
Bailouts get the economy going?
What about the never ending wars in the Middle East that Mr Nobel Peace Prize is running? One can barely notice the military is in more places than ever with all that fighting going on.

I think there may be a chance that the Dems knew that impeachment of bush in 2007 would have been a waste of time since the Dems didn't control the Senate. Do you have any idea about this? Now don't lie.

The Dems did control the Senate in 2007, but they did not have the votes even among Democrats for impeachment. As I said the political will among Democrats was not there to do it and certainly they would not have gotten the number of Republicans needed. Only a fraction of fellow liberals I know wanted impeachment. Many, including myself, didn't like the idea and were looking forward to the 2008 election.
but if benghazi happened under bush, you can bet that pelosi, reid, leahey, franken, frank, etc would all be screaming impeach
But Benghazi didn't happen under Bush; September 11th, on the other hand....
