Representative Kucinich Calls For Impeachment Of Dick Cheney

Dennis Kucinich (D-OH) Took the floor in the House of Representatives today and spoke the following words:

"Whenever any government official becomes destructive of the founding purposes, that official must be held accountable..."

And with that he introduced Articles of Impeachment for Vice-President Dick Cheney. When asked by a reporter why he is starting with Cheney and not Bush, Kucinich replied, "There is a very practical reason – each and every charge relates to Vice President Cheney's conduct or misconduct in office. It is very important that we start with Mr. Cheney because if we were to start with the President, Mr. Cheney would then become president."

This is, in my opinion a long overdue action and I hope he will receive support for Impeachment in the House.
