HR 333 (Articles of Impeachment of the Vice President of the United States) have been filed for the House's action.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
In a surprise move, Presidential candidate (Representative Dennis Kucinich), filed charges that Cheney knowingly used false information to whip up support for the invasion of Iraq.
He stated he decided to start impeachment proceedings with the Vice President instead of the President ... if the President were impeached and removed from office, it would mean that a second impeachment couldn't be carried out before Dick Cheney would take Bush's place as the President of the United States. Kucinich didn't want to do that ... thus he is starting with the Vice President instead.
This comes on top of an investigative attack by an Independent Counsel, against Karl Rove (Presidential Advisor) covering the last six years.
Politically motivated or otherwise, many Americans believe that Impeachment Proceedings should have been filed long ago against both the President and the Vice President ... the fact that they are being filed now, seems to indicate that the climate in Washington DC has changed to the point that the claim that NOT supporting the administration's war in Iraq makes you an enemy of America, no longer has any teeth.
Time will tell if there is anything to these charges.
