Stark changes stance on measure to impeach Vice President Cheney

By Matthew Artz / The Argus

FREMONT, CA — Berkeley resident Cynthia Papermaster on Wednesday abruptly ended her campaign to unseat Rep. Pete Stark, D-Fremont, in the June primary election. Papermaster had entered the race to protest Stark's unwillingness to pursue impeachment charges against Vice President Dick Cheney.

However, she said she was withdrawing from the 13th Congressional District contest after Stark released a statement Wednesday saying that he would co-sponsor House Resolution 333 to impeach Cheney.

Stark wrote that he decided to back the impeachment resolution after tabulating the results of a recent constituent survey, in which 64 percent of participants favored impeaching President Bush.

Impeaching Cheney, Stark wrote, "is necessary before we can impeach President Bush." So far, 27 House members have sponsored the resolution, which is unlikely to attract a majority.

Any politico worth their wait in salt will not be so easily manipulated. Plus, association is not causation.
