Raw Story: Kucinich 'seriously thinking' about forcing vote on Cheney impeachment

[RangerRK]

Rep. Dennis Kucinich says he is so concerned about what he sees as the Bush administration's push for a war with Iran that he is considering using a parliamentary measure to force the House of Representatives to vote on impeaching Vice President Dick Cheney.

"We're preparing for another war, and they're going to destroy America," the Ohio Democrat said Thursday on the Ed Schultz show. "We have a government in place right now that has to be challenged. I'm seriously thinking about calling a privileged resolution on impeachment of the vice president and forcing a vote on the floor of the House."...

Kucinich introduced a resolution calling for Cheney's impeachment this spring. Since then the bill has gained more than a dozen co-sponsors, but it seems to be dying a slow death in the House Judiciary Committee. It's chairman, John Conyers, has stood with Pelosi in refusing to debate the impeachment resolution or bring it to the House floor for a vote...

Dear Congressman Kucinich,

I've heard that you've finally begun thinking about something 
that most of your colleagues are too cowardly to pursue: forcing 
a vote on the impeachment of Dick Cheney.

I urge you to do this as soon as possible.  Someone needs to show 
leadership and help bring this country back from the brink.

Thank you,
jgraz

13. He, as anyone, must way out his actions. The situation with Iran

is getting dangerously close to violence on our part, and that in my opinion is insane. We all know that they have a standing million man army and are a well educated gentle but very determined people.

He, however, must think about it.

If impeaching anyone would stop this insanity, I feel sure -from what I have learned about him- he will act for impeachment.

If he does we must all support him. IF he does he has weighed his options and has thought of our welfare. We must support him.

I will and you will. He will need us.

12. Welcome, melisa ! Great find.

Time for Bush crime family to be held responsible before they try to steal the resources of Iran at the cost of our lives and liberty and public resources.
