A House Resolution to impeach U.S. Vice-President Dick Cheney, Dennis Kucinich’s H.R. 799, is gathering more support. The national impeachment continues to grow and generate increasing interest since being referred to the House Judiciary Committee last month, a Kucinich spokesperson said.
Congressman Robert Wexler of Florida is just one elected official who says the charges are too serious to ignore.
“There is credible evidence that the Vice President abused the power of his office, and not only brought us into an unnecessary war but violated the civil liberties and privacy of American citizens. It is the constitutional duty of Congress to hold impeachment hearings”
He went on to say that he believes Vice President Dick Cheney and the Bush Administration have demonstrated a consistent pattern of abusing the law and misleading Congress and the American people.
“We see the consequences of these actions abroad in Iraq and at home through the violations of our civil liberties,” Wexler said.
There is much more then sufficient evidence to impeach Cheney, not to mention George Bush, all that is required is the courage to follow the law and do what it was designed to do.
The founding fathers of this country provided for just this contingency and our Congressmen and Senators just sit there as if they are powerless to stop the Bush administration behemoth.
Dennis Kucinich may not have a snowball's chance in hell of being elected President, but if he is instrumental in getting Dick Cheney impeached, his place in history will be assured.
He will be a hero.
