Yea, that is exactly what I'm saying.
At the very least, impeachment hearings would slow them down.

Take Action Impeach Cheney First!
Ask your Rep, to support H.Res. 333

On Tuesday April 24, Rep. Dennis Kucinich acted. Late in the afternoon, Kucinich filed Articles of Impeachment against Vice President Richard Cheney citing three reasons:

*
Manipulating intelligence about weapons of mass destruction that misled us into war with Iraq,
*
Manipulating intelligence about Al Queda’s connections to Iraq, which contributed to leading us into the war in Iraq,
*
Openly threatening aggression against Iran, and in so doing undermining our national security.


This is not about politics or the next election, it is about wrongdoing at the highest level of our government and it should be punished -- beginning with Vice President Cheney. No one is above the law. Now is the time to act. Tell your Congress member to support H. Res. 333.

(edit or add your own text - 8512 characters left)
I ask you to uphold your duty to protect the Constitution by co-sponsoring H. Res. 333, Articles of Impeachment against Vice President Richard Cheney for:

1. 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,
2. purposely manipulated the intelligence process to deceive the citizens and Congress of the United States about an alleged relationship between Iraq and al Qaeda in order to justify the use of the United States Armed Forces against the nation of Iraq in a manner damaging to our national security interests,
3. openly threatened aggression against the Republic of Iran absent any real threat to the United States, and done so with the United States proven capability to carry out such threats, thus undermining the national security of the United States.

Please put the rule of law above all else and do the right thing. This is not about politics, but policies that have led to the most catastrophic foreign policy mistake in our history. We need allies in the world to help us in Iraq and elsewhere. Let’s show them that we respect the rule of law by holding Vice President Cheney accountable for his actions. Please co-sponsor H. Res. 333.
