Articles of Impeachment To Be Filed On Cheney

Washington Post.com Blogs ^

[mnehring]

...Dear Colleague:

This week I intend to introduce Articles of Impeachment with respect to the conduct of Vice President Cheney. Please have your staff contact my office . . . if you would like to receive a confidential copy of the document prior to its introduction in the House.....

[mnehring]

Our old buddy Dennis Kucinich chose an interesting time to post his intent to file impeachment charges against Cheney. I suppose he chose today to keep it low on th media radar.

Note: This is an except from the Washington Post. We cannot copy full articles from this source.

[sofaman]

Kucinich...enough said. What a little twerp that fellow is...a waste of platelets..

[burroak]

My teeth would grind every time I heard Dennis Kucinich mention; but since I heard Dennis Miller refer to his as that Gollem Guy from “Lord of the Rings”, I can dismiss him and his kooky ideas with a smile.

[popdonnelly]

How does this leftist clown get elected?

[mnehring]

Based on this article, it is interesting how he’s seeding the press before filing the papers.. hmmmm...

[saganite]

Reading the article it seems not even Democrats think much of his efforts.

[denydenydeny]

They have to get Cheney out first, then Bush. That’s how the coup is supposed to work.

They have no shot, of course, but they are insane.

[Txsleuth]

Unfortunately...this is all it takes for it to get “out there”...and all of the lefty loonies in the House will be clamoring for this to be taken up.

[PISANO]

How does this leftist clown get elected?

By leftist clowns like himself. There are way more of "THEM" than I ever thought possible.

[The Blitherer]

Maybe he’s trying to get Congress’ approval ratings to a record low.

[AZRepublican]

VP's cannot be impeached.

[jazusamo]

Keep it up Dennie boy and your dem colleagues will send the men in the white coats to take you away. They know the damege you do to the whacked out left.

[rockinqsranch]

Reader responses below the article are very telling of the mentality of the Left aren’t they. Wondering what Planet those posters live on.

[PeskyOne]

Someone ought to file impeachment charges against Dennis Kucinich for wasting taxpayers monies on his stupid witchhunts. If he spent as much time trying to do good for the nation as he does in trying to destroy someone, there might be a reason for him to be in Congress. I haven’t seen anything to recommend him and the majority of Democrats. They haven’t done one creditable good thing for the nation since they took over both Houses. They’ve spent their time trying to bring down the President and every Republican (except a few like Hagel)and in the process, they have hurt our nations standing in foreign countries and they’ve done irreparable harm to our military. I’d like to see MANY of them tarred and feathered and run out of town. There needs to be a good house cleaning in the Senate and House!

Hey Dennie:

Take your impeachment papers and shove them where the sun dont shine. You friggin idiot.

[Verginius Rufus]

Actually, the Vice President is explicitly mentioned in Article II, Sec. 4, as someone who can be impeached.

"The President, Vice President and all civil Officers of the United States, shall be removed from Office on Impeachment for, and Conviction of, Treason, Bribery, or other high Crimes and Misdemeanors."

[Campion]

Article II, section 4 of the Constitution: “The President, Vice President and all civil Officers of the United States, shall be removed from Office on Impeachment for, and Conviction of, Treason, Bribery, or other high Crimes and Misdemeanors.”

[Ditter]

I don’t wish any harm to befall Kucinich but.......... I really hope he gets run over by a bus.

[martin_fierro]

Article II, Sec. 4:

The President, Vice President and all civil Officers of the United States, shall be removed from Office on Impeachment for, and Conviction of, Treason, Bribery, or other high Crimes and Misdemeanors.

[geo40xyz]

Dennis Kucinich (democRAT-Ohio), another one of 535 FOOLS who thinks he/her of king/queen for the day. STFU

[anoldafvet]

What have you got against busses?

[nkycincinnatikid]

I’ts Clevelandtown Jake!

[Yo-Yo]

Read the Constitution again.

Section 4. The President, Vice President and all civil officers of the United States, shall be removed from office on impeachment for, and conviction of, treason, bribery, or other high crimes and misdemeanors.

[SusaninOhio]

something about the Lake Erie water, I believe, or perhaps it is the long cold winters in Cleveland that stunted his growth (mentally and physically).

Just guessing.

[reagan_fanatic]

I wish this demented little twerp would just fly back to whatever solar system he’s from and leave the running of the government to the adults.

[VRWCmember]

VP's cannot be impeached.

US Constitution, Article II, Section 4:
The President, Vice President and all civil Officers of the United States, shall be removed from Office on Impeachment for, and Conviction of, Treason, Bribery, or other high Crimes and Misdemeanors.

[alloysteel]

The guy would not even make a passable Orc of the Hobbit world. He would make a good example of a Gollum, though.

[betsyross1776]

Dennis should go up to the mother ship and just fly into the sunset? How did they get that fool in congress?Where ever he came from I hope the mother ship picks him up soon. All he is doing is wasting the governments time and my money. He should donate his salary back to the government. The money we wasted paying this fool should come back to us the taxpayers.

[VRWCmember]

One of the many things I love about FR is that so many FReepers are so knowledgeable of the Constitution (or at least have a copy or know how to look it up on the internet).

Constitution for the United States of America

[gov_bean_ counter]

The guy would not even make a passable Orc of the Hobbit world. He would make a good example of a Gollum, though.

He'd make one hell of a satellite dish, though.

[AZRepublican]

What I did not say very clearly is a VP cannot be impeached and removed without a conviction, treason, bribery and other high crimes.

Cheney hasn’t been convicted of nothing.

[anoldafvet]

I believe that at one time he was the mayor of Cleveland.

[SusaninOhio]

Reading some of the comments on the WashPost, it looks like ther are some folks just asking for a visit from people in dark suits who speak into their lapels.

I expect most of them are charter members of DU, from the filth they are spewing.

Would be lovely to present them with a list of the comments of all their idols, in the last 10 years, who agreed with everything the President has said and done.

Until the action was taken by a Republican president, that is. Then began the backpedaling and just plain lying, by most of the dems still in office today.

"I suppose he chose today to keep it low on th media radar."

S.O.P.

Modus Operandi

Same-o, same-o

I said on another thread that we will get a new one evey week until the election, and implied the possiblity that there might be a connection with scum Mr. Cho and the socialists via quota's, via al quida, via a circuitous X-File type 'program ... ahhhh ... never mind ... I'm probably crazy anyway.

Unless James Brown's body is not molderin' in the grave ...

Larry Brickhead is the Dad,

Rosie O'Donut is passe',

Imus is not one of usus,

We'll dwell on the murderin' rat bastard Cho for a while,

Dipsy Denny is probably filing to take the focus off of the failed gun control issue and state school quota's and Corzine's self inflicted (by proxy) near death experience.

We live in historical and fascinating times.

...something about the Lake Erie water, I believe, or perhaps it is the long cold winters in Cleveland that stunted his growth (mentally and physically).

He was weaned on red Kool-Aid...

[adorno]

"The President, Vice President and all civil Officers of the United States, shall be removed from Office on Impeachment for, and Conviction of, Treason, Bribery, or other high Crimes and Misdemeanors."

From the sounds of that article, Pelosi, Murtha, Reid and most of the leadership of the democratic congress qualify quite well for impeachment.

[Cletus.D.Yokel]

Cheney’s response (dripping with sarcasm): “Well, I guess that will teach me to pi$$-off the evil elf.”

[Disambiguator]

I thought Kucinich had drifted off into another dimensional plane by now. He’s still around?

[Dr. Bogus Pachysandra]

Thye Reader Responses are hilarious!
“Dennis The Menace” tries to strike again! Lately they’ve been callin’ him “Denny The Dwarf” on local Cleveland radio.

[Cletus.D.Yokel]

Impeach Cheney! “Vice-President Rumsfeld” has a nice ring to it!

[elcid1970]

What a little nutcake, Kucinish the Mayor of the Burning River!

On Hannity yesterday he was slickery like an eel in hog fat to Sean’s questions.

This is the same moonbat who listens to the wisdom of “Grandfather Twilight”.

[longtermmemmory]

The twirp is using taxpayer money to run for president.

He has to get out of committee, this will go as far as the GWBush articles the democrats filed.

[R_Kangel]

Nothing new here.

They promised this is what they would do if they regained majority status.

They did, and now they are actually doing as they promised.

[mnehring]

Call me nutty, but part of me hopes that someone does bring these charges because it will force everyone to put their charges on the record under oath. Instead of mouthing off their anti-Bush/Cheney rants to the press, where their words don't go in check for accuracy, they are forced to bring the discussion to an honest(sic) legal level. It is similar to the Joseph Wilson issue. He accused the VP of sending him to Niger and said the President lied to the NYT BUT, in his 9/11 commission hearings he contradicted what he said to the NYT, the sad part is the latter doesn't get the press.

[theFIRMbss]

>Rep. Dennis Kucinich (D-Ohio), the most liberal of the Democratic presidential candidates in the primary field, declared in a letter sent to his Democratic House colleagues this morning that he plans to file articles of impeachment against Vice President Dick Cheney.

Interesting to know
which of our politicians
read Lyndon Larouche--

Congress Cannot Evade Responsibility To Move To Impeach Cheney

[longtermmemmory]

The point is this will play LOUDLY in the foreign media. The OTHER NATIONS do not understand this is irrelevant, they will couple this with the nutcase in VT and suddenly the usa is falling appart in the eyes of the rest of the world.

[fish hawk]

The same way Hillary and Pelosi and Kennedy etc. etc. get elected. (by idiots)

[adorno]

Did anybody catch one of the comments in that web page? It sounds like a veiled threat to the president or vp.

It is too bad the shooter at VT spent all of his mojo on students and faculty.
