Dennis Kucinich Presents 35 Articles of Impeachment Against Bush
Dennis Kucinich brought 35 articles of impeachment against George W. Bush on the House floor yesterday:
"The Ohio representative outlined his intention to propose more than two dozen charges against Bush on the floor of the U.S. House of Representatives. Kucinich, a former presidential candidate, accused Bush executing a 'calculated and wide-ranging strategy' to deceive citizens and Congress into believing that Iraq posed an imminent threat to the United States. House Speaker Nancy Pelosi has repeatedly said she opposes trying to remove the Republican president who leaves office next January because such an attempt would be divisive and most likely unsuccessful."
"Most likely unsuccessful" seems to be the key phrase in Pelosi's tenure thus far.
As such, the move is not likely to gain traction, but you can watch the clip AFTER THE JUMP...

NOTHING is ever too late, especially when you have a complacent Congress and Senate from the Democratic Party who is more interesting in "winning" elections than fulfilling their CONSTITUTIONAL DUTIES for impeaching someone who deserves it like bush.
Just take a look at even what "Middle America" thinks. At the USA TODAY poll, over 68% are in agreement that bush should be impeached.
Our US of A is a nation of LAWS. When Clinton was impeached it was about lies that had more to do with sex than with real "crimes and misdemeanors" of the bush crime family administration.
Something tells me (and I have GREAT instincts) that Obama will become US President and will kick and impeach that SOB bush.
THANK YOU DENNIS KUCINICH. Despite the naysayers, you have been the TRUE AMERICAN PATRIOT.
F bush! f c heney! f Pelosi for failing to represent WE THE PEOPLE.

Jimmyboyo, you are correct! The republican party has been hijacked by the neo-cons and it angers me beyond belief!!! I am fighting to hang on. The one thing I can say about McCain is that he will not pander to the Christian right! I cannot stand W and I am going to be able to tell my kids one day that NO I NEVER VOTED FOR HIM. However, I cannot just turn my back on everything that I believe in and say that I am a dem. And yes, I do believe that I am a libertarian up to the point of the whole drug issue. However, I do not see any libs making it to the whitehouse so I will have to vote elsewhere for now.

Some advise. Let go. Don't hang on. Go Libertarian. I will disagree with you on many issues as a Libertarian, but I can so respect that more than the modern repub party.
"McCain is that he will not pander to the Christian right"
I have to disagree.
1- Admirably described Falweel , Robertson, and others of their ilk as charlatans/ evil snake oil salesmen/ etc. THEN he went and kissed Falwell's ring because power has blinded John mccain to who he once was
2- sought out some crazy far righter xtians to endorse him to shore up his support with such thus pandering to them
3- Having a 0 rating on pro choice issues he none the less did not want to have roe vs wade overturned. He now does which is 100% oander to the christian right
3- Calling america a christian nation is pandering to them when in fact it was mostly created by deist children of the enlightenment utilizing pagan models such as Rome, Greece, British Common Law (predates xtianity ariving in Briatn by centuries), and the Iriquois nation
Mccain has pandered big time to the religous right due to lusting after the brass ring
Mccain of 2000 is long gone and forgotten. Which is sad because the mccain of 2000 was actualy a decent repub
PS on the drug issue, the founders grew hemp. Hemp was in fact the largest cash crop export from the colonies providing oil, hemp fibers, medicine, animal fodder, and some good old fashion relaxation. :-)

Dennis Kucinich also believes he has been visited by aliens, shares Shirley MacLaines beliefs in past lives and probably communes with Ramtha.
