VOTE in the National Cheney Impeachment Poll

The People's eMail Network

While we're expressing our opinions, stop by that link and let your representatives know that you support Impeaching Dick Cheney. The Bill, offered by Dennis Kucinich as HR 333, cites the following impeachable offenses:

1. Fabricated a threat of Iraqi weapons of mass destruction,
2. purposely manipulated the intelligence process to deceive the citizens and Congress of the United States about an alleged relationship between Iraq and al Qaeda, and
3. has threatened aggression against the Republic of Iran absent any real threat to the United States, all in detriment to the national interest of the United States.

Personally, I think that list is a little light. He also maintained a link to Halliburton, which is a conflict of interest, and then orchestrated no-bid contracts for them. In spite of proven incidents of price-gouging, poor performance and other violations, these contracts have not been terminated in accordance with the Federal Acquisition Regulations. (They do still exist, don't they?)

He also let the energy lobby write their own dream legislation, which has us paying record prices for gasoline.

He has been implicated in allowing the 9/11 attack on the Pentagon, in spite of the readiness of fighter planes available to stop it.

He has lied repeatedly to Congess and to the American people, including incidents in which he denied saying things that were captured on tape.

He participated in outing CIA operative Valerie Plame, destroying her career and compromising National Security, in addition to violating federal law. Some would call this treason in a time of war.

One million people have died as a result of lies that led to the Iraq war. We have to impeach Cheney first, so he doesn't follow W. into the Oval Office, so let's get on with it. There has never been an administration so richly deserving of censure.
