Last week, Congressman Dennis Kucinich made good on his promise that he made back in January to file Articles of Impeachment against the dishonorable President George W. Bush. The House later voted to have the resolution sent to the Judiciary Committee for review. Unfortunately, the Articles of Impeachment Resolution for Vice President Dick Cheney has been stifled in the same committee, which was also filed by Congressman Kucinich.
This is not about politics. I repeat. This is not about politics. This is about measurable accountability of our highest civil servants. You may think that Impeaching this Administration would be a waste of time. I beg to differ strongly on that one. What if we have John McCain as our next President? Would you like him to inherit the legacy of this administration? Or would you like to remind the next administration to take their charge seriously and that they are above all accountable to the full extent of the law. We have the government we deserve, it is time to take a second look at what we expect from our public servants and hold them to the basic tenets of American Democracy.
Honesty must be a requirement. Allegiance to the collective good must be a requirement.
Contact the Judiciary Committee and demand action on the Articles of Impeachment for George W. Bush [H. Res. 1258] and the Articles of Impeachment for Dick Cheney [H. Res. 333].
Contact your Representative and demand that they sign on as a cosponsor to both Resolutions.
