What is the impeachment procedure when the VP goes on a shooting spree? |

I'm wondering about this question. Is there anything in the constitution that would prompt his removal from office?

1. He'll say it was pre-emptive self-defence |

2. he is responsible for having thousands of people shot |
|
because he is one of the people responsible for the Iraq war. One more shooting won't make much difference.

3. He can be arrested and indicted, just like anyone else. |

The office of the Veep doesn't carry the sort of special immunities that the Presidency does. Just ask Spiro.

4. He will resign before that and * will name whoever they want to run in |
|
2008.
The notion of 2 incumbents running one against the other is too frightening for them.

Thoughe he had "other priorities" than serving in Vietnam, VP Cheney lays to rest rumors that he is a cowardly dog.
