Raw Story: Kucinich Sets Date To Launch Cheney Impeachment Push - Wed., April 25

Kucinich to launch Cheney impeachment push on April 25
Michael Roston
Published: Thursday April 19, 2007

Rep. Dennis Kucinich (D-OH), the former mayor of Cleveland who is seeking the 2008 Democratic nomination for president for the second time, has selected a date to introduce articles of impeachment against Vice President Dick Cheney. A source who asked to remain anonymous told RAW STORY that the articles of impeachment would be introduced next week.

"The Congressman plans to introduce the articles on Wednesday, April 25th," the source told RAW STORY. The Congressman's office responded in an e-mail Thursday afternoon to RAW STORY by saying "No comment" when asked if the report was true.

Mary Ann Akers reported at her blog, The Sleuth, on Monday that the Congressman had sent a "dear colleague" letter to fellow Members of Congress informing them of his plan to introduce the articles of impeachment against the Vice President. However, he had postponed the plan in the wake of the killing of 32 students, faculty, and staff at Virginia Tech on Monday.

Multiple congressional offices confirmed to RAW STORY that they had received the letter, but none had been apprised of the impeachable offenses with which the Ohio Democrat would charge the Vice President.

6. Does anyone else believe....
that Cheney does us more good where he is, than if he would be dumped? Sure, tar and feather the guy, but I'd rather him be around as our favorite whipping post than Shrub get to choose another VP and give that VP a leg up on the 2008 Presidential race.

Hell, who knows, with Cheney in the limelight, maybe something embarrassing will happen like him getting caught with a chicken Larry Flynt style.

8. In a narrow sense
He does more good for Dems where he is, no doubt.

But humanity and the planet suffer more and more every minute he wields power.

Let's not be selfish.
