******OFFICIAL Rep. Kucinich Introduces Articles of Impeachment of George W. Bush THREAD *******

[givemebackmycountry]

Dennis will be on CSPAN for at least the next several hours.
He has 35 Articles of Impeachment to read against you know who.
Our good friend may be at it all night long.

We have four or five threads going (one is mine) and I have made an executive decision.
I'll start the first one if someone picks up after me.

I hope Dennis had a good dinner because he's going to pull a great weight here.
The weight of our Democracy.

He's a hero of mine by the way.

[coffeenap]

1. He is my hero---again! nt

[RainDog]

29. here's on online link to watch

c-span house live

[DailyGrind51]

177. How many others will back his play?

So far, his fellow Dems have been cowards when it comes to standing up to Bush.

[JDPriestly]

179. I e-mailed my Congressman. Please e-mail your Congressman or woman.

This is the most important thing we can do to support the Impeachment Resolution -- we need a flood of letters, calls and e-mails.

[roguevalley]

137. I love him. His wife must be so proud. He's shoveling all the shit

and best case scenario short of impeachment is that Bush will not be able to have his Iran war now.

[LWolf]

190. Still.

:thumbsup: :thumbsup:

[ixion]

2. Go Dennis!

:woohoo: :applause: :woohoo:

[trueblue2007]

They do not appear to be covering this. What a surprise!

[az chela]

20. c span

[az chela]

22. Thank you a billion times Dennis for having the guts

to finally accuse this government of all the crimes they have commited.YOu are a true HERO

[Fovea]

68. CNN nada so far.

[Fireweed247]

5. Dennis Kucinich America's Greatest Hero!

:yourock:

[The Wielding Truth]

66. He is a true patriot who is protecting our constitution and laws.

[Wizard777]

91. Protecting it from the most dangerous enemy of all.

The domestic enemy in the heart of our government. Lets just hope the rest of house has his courage to stand up to this continuing criminal enetrprize.

[The Wielding Truth]

106. This is a matter of truth and timing. Politics has trumped

truth during this administration. We must be actively on guard that corrupt power does not override it again.

My hope is that since these articles are now on record and aired to the public, they will embed themselves like splinters which will fester and boil themselves out to the attention of all.

It could then push the great corruption which dominates our government with it.

[John Q. Citizen]

6. Kicking and Recommending for DK and for the rule of law!

10. Dennis you are our hero!

Stand for Something or Stand for Nothing!

Dennis, you are standing for something today!!!!

[Bluzmann57]

11. I wish him luck

It ain't going anywhere. He tried this a few months ago and it didn't work then. A lot of his colleagues have no backbone and just won't support him.

[goclark]

16. Dennis is putting it ON the table like a real

Democrat!


It about the TRUTH and not if it does or doesn't pass.

It should be on the table.

[Bluzmann57]

64. Point made

At least the issue will be out there. Again.

[housewolf]

14. He's so calm...

Just laying them out one by one

Amazing! How long have we been waiting for this??????

Thank god for DENNIS!!!!

[L. Coyote]

15. "Wherefore George W. Bush, by such conduct, is impeachable ....."

Damn, that sounds good!!! Can we get this done by midnight, PLEASE!!!!!! PLEASE

[yellowdogintexas]

19. rock on Dennis.

I know he decided to do this because of the most recent stuff from Conyers and Wexler

[phatkatt]

237. Can someone make a ring tone out of that?

Might make for some interesting conversations out in public ...

[uppityperson]

17. Guilty of an impeachable offense... woo hoo

[Willo]

[goclark]

21. Go Dennis!

[jimshoes]

23. Dennis may yet save this country from the disater

that is bush. Thank you Dennis.:kick: :patriot: :yourock: :bounce:

[az chela]

223. We have to do all we can to get this out because if me let bush and mcsame

bush is a monster who is responsible for the killing of millions of people and selling this country off piece by piece.It is very evident that the right wing news could care less as it was not mentioned on any news show or on the internet that tells the news.
I sat mesmerized for over 4 hrs listening to Dennis's every word and I know now for certain that if bush isnt charged this country will be destroyed.He is using the same tactics with Iran as he did with Iraq and we all know how that turhed out.
We cant stop until bush and cheney are convicted of war crimes and imprisoned for life.
This is a very dangerous situation and if nothing is done we will be worse than any country on this
planet.
If you can watch c-span,I am sure they will show it again and needs to be seen by everyone who considers themself a true american

[mikelgb]

24. kick

[dana_b]

25. Everyone WRITE TO HIM

and tell him how much you appreciate/support his efforts. Also write to your Senators/Congess people and tell them that you support Kucinich and they should too.

Sorry about the caps, but I think it's important that he hears from us.

[MuseRider]

32. My kind of Democrat.

The kind with integrity, honesty. The liberal kind of Democrat. The kind that believes in the constitution. The kind who actually reads what he is being asked to vote on and studies it well enough to know exactly what it is about. The kind that is listening to his constituency and educating them and representing them.

The kind of Democrat that knows that he must stand up and speak the truth even when the complicit in his party do not want him to. Even when it is not the electable thing to do.

Go Dennis, you are the only reason I lasted as long as I did in the Democratic party. It is good to know you are still there, a rare Democrat who still believes in what we as a nation are supposed to be.

Smoke em out good buddy!

35. Let's see if anyone on the MSM makes one peep about this

Tonight? Tomorrow? In the docket?

ever?

[uppityperson]

44. quick wiki link to process

Don't know when or if it will be voted on, put posting the process, just for info.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Impeachment

The impeachment-trial procedure is in two steps. The House of Representatives must first pass "articles of impeachment" by a simple majority. (All fifty state legislatures as well as the District of Columbia city council may also pass articles of impeachment against their own executives.) The articles of impeachment constitute the formal allegations. Upon their passage, the defendant has been "impeached."

Next, the Senate tries the accused. In the case of the impeachment of a President, the Chief Justice of the United States presides over the proceedings. Otherwise, the Vice President, in his capacity as President of the Senate, or the President pro tempore of the Senate presides. This may include the impeachment of the Vice President, although legal theories suggest that allowing a person to be the judge in the case where she or he was the defendant would be a blatant conflict of interest. If the Vice President did not preside over an impeachment (of someone other than the President), the duties would fall to the President Pro Tempore.

In order to convict the accused, a two-thirds majority of the senators present is required. Conviction automatically removes the defendant from office. Following conviction, the Senate may vote to further punish the individual by barring them from holding future federal office (either elected or appointed). Despite a conviction by the Senate, the defendant remains liable to criminal prosecution. It is possible to impeach someone even after the accused has vacated their office in order to disqualify the person from future office or from certain emoluments of their prior office (such as a pension). If a two-thirds majority of the senators present does not vote "Guilty" on one or more of the charges, the defendant is acquitted and no punishment is imposed.

He did it and he didn't tell anyone.
That's our money - and he diverted it.
He's a criminal.

I love the "George W. Bush and his subordinates and agents" line over and over.
I know no one is listening - but this may be history in the making.
By the way... did all the networks carry the impeachment of Bill Clinton LIVE?

I think I already know that answer.
I recall that they did.

[slipslidingaway]

134. Yes & I think Dennis is really concerned about the war drums

against Iran, in addition to all the past crimes. No doubt my daughter learned about oral sex from the Clinton impeachment.

226. No she doesn't. If she try's that off the table crap. Dennis should ask her to recuse herself.

Because she stands to gain from the Impeachment. Presiding over it or participating in it could be a conflict of interest. She would be President if Bush & Cheney are Impeached. There are resolutions against both.

46. Is Congress actually in session, though?

It looks like Kooch is the only person in the room--hopefully, that's just the camera angle.

Rep. Kucinich introduces Bush impeachment resolution


WASHINGTON (AP) — Rep. Dennis Kucinich, a former Democratic presidential contender, said Monday he wants the House to consider a resolution to impeach President Bush.

Speaker Nancy Pelosi consistently has said impeachment was "off the table."

Kucinich, D-Ohio, read his proposed impeachment language in a floor speech. He contended Bush deceived the nation and violated his oath of office in leading the country into the Iraq war.

Kucinich introduced a resolution last year to impeach Vice President Dick Cheney. That resolution was killed, but only after Republicans initially voted in favor of taking up the measure to force a debate.

103. Cleveland Plain Dealer = Kucinich introduces Bush impeachment resolution

Kucinich introduces Bush impeachment resolution
Sabrina Eaton - June 09, 2008 - 50 minutes ago

Cleveland Democratic Rep. Dennis Kucinich took to the House of Representatives floor on Monday evening to introduce a 35-count resolution to impeach President George W. Bush.

Kucinich claimed Bush "fraudulently" justified the war on Iraq and misled "the American people and members of Congress to believe Iraq possessed weapons of mass destruction so as to manufacture a false case for war."

"President George W. Bush, by such conduct, is guilty of an impeachable offense warranting removal from office," Kucinich said.

Kucinich said in January that he planned to launch an impeachment effort against Bush, but delayed his effort after meeting with members of the House Judiciary Committee. ...........

hotel I'm in has CSPAN blocked or the local cable system or satellite service does as when I view the guide it clearly shows CSPAN on Channel 40 yet when I go to it there's just snow. I'll be complaining about that at check out tomorrow. Then on to Charlotte, NC. I'll try to catch the vidcaps of Dennis' great work once I'm there and can get back online.

[tomp]

214. what the heck are you talking about? why four? nt

[MissDeeds]

162. K & R for our dear brave Dennis

When the history of this dark point in time is written, many will be rightly vilified for their inertia to stop the most diabolical administration in modern times. But one man, small in stature, but large in conviction, will stand as the conscience of the people. I salute you, Rep. Kucinich, and all that you tried to do in the name of justice.

:patriot:

172. The MSM must be freaking out over all these websites

he's mentioning..."what about us? Don't you trust us for the news? Hey, you're making us look bad."

[Prisoner_Number_Six]

173. He just directly referenced Raw Story and Larisa Alexandrovna.

The political blog is now officially recognized in the historical record as being an active world-shaking force for good.

:toast:

180. A historic moment... and we are witnessing it.

Thank you, Mr. Kucinich, for your courage and service to our country.

[CadenBlaker]

181. Yes! But, bleh, it won't go anywhere. :(

I'm happy he did this, and this kind of thing is EXACTLY why I sent him money twice for his primary in Ohio, but I don't think this will get anywhere sadly enough.

[Phred42]

182. IT'S ON THE TABLE NOW - Ms Pelosi !

:toast: .. :bounce:

TIME FOR DENNIS TO REPLACE PAL-OSI! !!!!!!!!!!!!


:popcorn:

[IowaGirl]

183. As much as I admire Dennis, if anyone had the courage to support him,

would we then be stuck with Cheney for POTUS?

[Sparkly]

185. We already are. :(

[IowaGirl]

200. True, however, he's kinda like the "man behind the screen" in the

Wizard of Oz and we don't have to look at him too much. I wish we could get rid of them both.

[dglow]

249. Rats fleeing

Before Bush is tried before the Senate, his Repig buddies will force Bush and his handler, Cheney to resign to save their own skins. Case closed.

[Sparkly]

184. This is "Mr. Kucinich Goes to Washington."

It's infuriating that this isn't getting the attention it REQUIRES!! :mad:

[galledgoblin]

186. now, house dems, RUN WITH IT

IMPEACH THOSE SHITS IN THE WHITE HOUSE!

this is Pelosi's chance to regain my respect, she'd better do so.

[tekisui]

201. Thank You Patriot Kucinich! KNR!

[tblue37]

202. We would need to impeach Bush and Cheney simultneously, so that

Dick can't just become president, bomb Iran, and then pardon Bush.

[Undercurrent]

203. Standing tall for the Constitution!

I'm watching him now, and admire, and respect him so much!

[KoKo]

204. Yo! Dennis has the TIMELINE...He had to spell it out for them...with quotes and links

from "previously published information." We know Nancy knows...we know most of the Dems Know...but it takes Dennis Kucinich to go out in June of '08 when most Americans are brushing teeth gettin jammies on for the Bush Crimes to be cataloged on the House Floor by an American Patriot, Rep. Dennis Kucinich.

Unlike the Repug Witch Hunt Impeachment Articles read by Repug on House Floor about a "private consenting sex act" in the "Ante-Room off Oval Office" ...this President who lied and lied, ordered torture, allowed us to be attacked on 9/11 and has the blood of millions on his hands...this reading of "Articles of Impeachment" takes place in late in the night and will be little covered the next day by the McCorporate Media.

Even when we have a Democratic Candidate who will win...and a majority in the House...it's only Dennis Kucinich who speaks to an "EMPTY HOUSE FLOOR" in the night when folks are not listening...but SPEAKS TO THE PEOPLE!

How sad our Democracy has become. Let's hope that these "Articles of Impeachment" will go into the record when Bush/Cheney are later charged with WAR CRIMES...when they leave office...after the time when "Pardons" can be offered for all of them...by them.

GO DENNIS!

[VenusRising]

205. I'm so proud of having cast a vote for Dennis Kucinich.

213. "democrats" were absolute fucking fools....

...not to get behind kucinich. just blew the greatest opportunity, for a couple of showboats. fools!

[southerncrone]

216. My HERO! And our nation's savior!

224. Bob Fertik congratulated Kucinich on his "historic leadership."

Kucinich: Impeach Bush
June 9, 2008 by Matthew Hay Brown
The Swamp - http://weblogs.chicagotribune.com/news/politics/blog/2008/06/kucinich_pushing_for_bush_impe.html


... the Ohio Democrat proposed impeaching President Bush. In language similar to that in the articles of impeachment he raised against Cheney, Kucinich sought support for a 35-count indictment charging Bush with misleading Congress and the American people into war with tales of weapons of mass destruction in Iraq. ....

Bob Fertik, president of Democrats.com, one of the groups pushing for impeachment congratulated Kucinich on his "historic leadership."

"We've waited seven years to find one Member of Congress brave enough to stand up for our Constitution, for which generations of Americans have fought and died," Fertik said. "We are thrilled and honored that Dennis Kucinich has chosen to be that one genuine patriot."

[Sunnyshine]

225. Please let this have real consequences. May the patriots gather and help Rep.Kucinich serve justice

230. If Only There Were More Like Him!

[puebloknot]

231. DK: It had to be you, Wonderful you..... We wandered around ...

...and finally found somebody who .... has the integrity to stand up for all that's right and true in this country.

[nc4bo]

232. I would never have known this was happening except for the 'net.

Nearly a complete media black out if not for C-SPAN and just how many average Americans watch C-SPAN that late at night? Unbelievable!

Are we that afraid of this Administration and the powers that control it?

Thanks DU, i wouldn't be nearly as aware of the political machine if it weren't for you guys.

[OlWiseRedEye]

234. I couldn't agree more!

Rock on DK!

[goodhue]

236. Is there any available link to 35 articles?

Dennis' site seems to be down at moment

[mother earth]

Thank you, Dennis!

:kick:

[RoccoR5955]

238. WTG Dennis. A TRUE American Hero...

:kick:
...one of only a few members of Congress who still represent WE THE PEOPLE!

The guy should have been the Democratic nominee. Dennis SHOULD be our president. If he was, I would be proud of our country, and its people!

[BayjanDem]

239. Divisive

Some have said this is divisive, but I disagree. This is overdue. If Bush was a Democrat, we'd be talking about President Cheney. Impeachment is a start.

[eppur_se_muova]

240. It is divisive -- it divides the criminals from the rest of the country.

When repugs object to 'diviseness', they are sincere. They just let everyone assume that diviseness is necessarily bad.

[Zorra]

241. All I have to say is

Thanks, Dennis! We love you!

[jmpnfool]

242. I'm sure you'll see this

all over the "librul" media, right? Well, maybe if he lied about a blow job, but not for lying us into a war. God our media has become disgusting.

[RedLetterRev]

243. Cross-Posting

After I wrote my congresscritter, I called Mr Kucinich's office to register thanks and support. The staffer who answered the phone said immediately "Impeachment is currently off the table, but I can connect you to the Comment Line". (Seemed as if he'd done that a lot this morning.)

Well, it might not be ON the table, but it sure is sitting in a chair in front of it now.

I thought it was a very clever procedural move on Mr Kucinich's part; rather than introducing the articles directly (which might not be fully read into the record), he introduced a question which did allow him to read the entirety into the record. Whether or not actual impeachment goes forward (please, Good One, give us some relief!), the entirety of the Articles are in the record for all posterity, every article enumerated and read. By introducing a question rather than the resolution itself, he also didn't exaaaaactly defy the "impeachment is off the table" edict. Well done! I admire his brains as much as his nerve. Regardless of the outcome, we have spoken and it is a matter of record.

[peace frog]

244. About goddamn time someone did it

Kudos to Kucinich for doing what no one else in Congress was willing to attempt, abject cowards that they are. Well done, Dennis!

[SeeHopeWin]

245. I watched all of it, I was so proud of him!

[Stardust]

247. He's my hero, too. Thanks for the most excellent thread! K&R

[FunMe]

248. A true American hero!

This reminds me of Mr. Smith Goes to Washington.

One man CAN and WILL make a difference!

[NewEnglandGirl]

250. Let's Hope This Is Successful, it's never too late

but I'm cringing at the thought of Mr. Scary Man taking over. (DC).

[tavalon]

255. Feel free to cringe

That's the way it's been for 7+ years. You don't think monkey shit for brains Bush has been doing anything but drinking himself into a stupor throughout this debacle, do you? GWB, is not, nor ever was, competent to be President.

[Desertrose]

251. Thank you,Dennis. You totally rock.....

Thank you, thank you, thank you!!!!!!!

:loveya: DR

[tavalon]

252. What shocks me is that Nancy "off the table" Pelosi

allowed this. I'm really flabbergasted. I never expected this.

[juno jones]

254. I love me some Dennis!!!!

K&R!
