This Cheney impeachment thing proposed by Rep. Dennis Kucinich (D-OH) sure separates "the men from the boys" as they say...or in this case, the Leftists from the truly whacked.
What parade of political mutants support this juvenile act? From CNS News:
Impeach07 is a coalition of high-profile anti-war, anti-Bush groups including World Can't Wait Coalition, CODE PINK Women for Peace, and the Cindy Sheehan-led Gold Star Families for Peace.
Kucinich's articles of impeachment, which allege that Cheney purposefully misled the United States into war in Iraq, have yet to garner any support from his colleague in the House, prompting the long-shot candidate for the 2008 Democratic presidential nomination to say that "no one's with me but the people on this."
Why aren't these tinfoil-hatted nutcases going after Cheney and not Bush? One reason and one reason only:
Impeachment advocates would like to impeach Cheney before pursuing President Bush, because if they were to successfully impeach and remove Bush, Cheney would become president. Hence, they want to remove the vice president from office first.
The only positive thing in this inane, divisive act is that even the majority of Democrats know they simply don't have a case and they aren't willing to spend political capital on an utterly unfounded case.
