Kucinich says he will force House vote on Cheney impeachment

Rep. Dennis Kucinich of Ohio, (Democrat) who's launched a presidential campaign, says he plans to force an up-or-down vote in the U.S. House of Representatives on an impeachment resolution against Vice President Dick Cheney.
Kucinich announced last week that he will offer a "privileged resolution" on Nov. 6 that would require House members, within two days, to vote on what to do with the impeachment measure.
He plans to discuss the matter in a conference call on Monday evening.
"The momentum is building for impeachment," Kucinich said in a Nov. 2 news release. "Millions of citizens across the nation are demanding Congress rein in the Vice President's abuse of power."
House Resolution 333 says Cheney should be impeached for "high crimes and misdemeanors," because he "purposely manipulated the intelligence process to deceive the citizens and Congress of the United States by fabricating a threat of Iraqi weapons of mass destruction to justify the use of the United States Armed Forces against the nation of Iraq in a manner damaging to our national security interests."
Kucinich insists that Vice President Cheney continues to violate the U.S. Constitution by insisting on the supremacy of the Executive Branch.
The resolution introducing articles of impeachment against the vice president has 21 cosponsors, all of them Democrats.
"Congress must hold the Vice President accountable," Kucinich said last week. He accused Cheney of using his office to advocate the "continued occupation of Iraq and prod our nation into a belligerent stance against Iran."

Thats a good thing to have going for you, though.
I'd rather be Kucinich and know I was the laughing stock of both parties while waking up next to her, than be Dick and wake up next to that ugly cunt Lynn.

Hilarious!!! Many Democrats today voted to go forward with impeachment when they thought it would fail, they then suddenly voted against impeachment when it mattered.
We’re going to help them out, to explain themselves,” said Rep. Pete Sessions, R-Texas. “We’re going to give them their day in court.”
Knowing there was no way that impeachment debate would go forward, they felt comfortable voting for it. The problem was the republicans changed their votes at the end and made it go forward-forcing the Dem's to defend their vote. It forced Hoyer and even Conyers to kill it and send it back to committee.....the moonbats are beyond pissed.

I think hes like 5 foot 5. Honestly if a politician wants my respect, he needs to have a wife in tip-top shape. I want a man whose wife never ages, just constantly changes, like the great Chinese emperors of old who had a harem of the most attractive women in the city. Or the German king who decreed that he got to have sex with the wives on their wedding night before the husband got to. That is power oh my brothers
