Fourth Member Of Congress Signs Onto Kucinich Impeachment Bill

Fourth Member of Congress calls for impeachment
US Rep. Albert Russell Wynn (D-MD) has become the fourth co-sponsor of US Rep. Dennis Kucinich's (D-OH) bill to impeach Vice President of the United States Dick Cheney: http://www.atlantaprogressivenews.com/news/0157.html

As Matthew Cardinale of Atlanta Progressive News, which broke the story, notes, "US Rep. Wynn (D-MD) is a champion of civil rights issues, but unlike Clay, Kucinich, and Schakowsky, he is not a Member of the Congressional Progressive Caucus. This suggests the bill is gaining appreciation beyond the traditional impeachment constituency of the CPC."

With each additional Representative that signs onto H Res 333 it becomes harder for other members of the House to argue that impeachment is just a fringe movement. This would be a good time to write your own Representative and ask them to follow the courageous lead of Reps. Kucinich, Wynn, Clay, and Schakowsky. Progressive Democrats of America has provided an easy way for you to do this with their H Res 333 Action Alert page. Visit the page to send a customized letter to your Representative by e-mail or postal mail: http://capwiz.com/pdamerica/issues/alert/?alertid=9672446

If you would like to thank Rep. Wynn, you can call his Washington office at (202) 225-8699 or send him a message here: http://www.wynn.house.gov/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=161&Itemid=63

1. I wrote Rosa a letter about Dennis's Bill
Got back a pretty generic reply that was non-committal.

2. Peter Welch refuses
His argument is that impeachment would prolong the war. WTF???

Welch is a phony.
