AP picks up impeachment

Rep. Kucinich introduces Bush impeachment resolution
24 minutes ago

WASHINGTON (AP) — Rep. Dennis Kucinich, a former Democratic presidential contender, said Monday he wants the House to consider a resolution to impeach President Bush.

Speaker Nancy Pelosi consistently has said impeachment was "off the table."

Kucinich, D-Ohio, read his proposed impeachment language in a floor speech. He contended Bush deceived the nation and violated his oath of office in leading the country into the Iraq war.

Kucinich introduced a resolution last year to impeach Vice President Dick Cheney. That resolution was killed, but only after Republicans initially voted in favor of taking up the measure to force a debate.

Kucinich won 50 percent of the vote in a five-way House Democratic primary in March, beating back critics who said he ignored business at home to travel the country in his quest to be president.

5. Does Kucinich stand completely alone in this?
Or are there any other women and men of conscience in the United States Congress supporting this along with him?

11. Pelosi was right.
We have to worry too much about wielding a double-edged sword during election time. With Dubya only months away form leaving, why even bother now and take the chance of upsetting Barack's chances of getting in

We Have Got To Get Barack in That Office. This Should Remain the Main Focus!

Let Dubya be Dubya. He'll do something stupid before election time. Then the Democratic Party or Moveon.org can show commercials of Dubya and McSame standing together. Don't ruin just one of the best things we have to show people why McSame and Dubya are twins! :headbang:
