Kucinich 'will file Bush impeachment'

Congressman Dennis Kucinich says he will introduce articles of impeachment against President Bush for deceiving the American nation.

The Democrat said Wednesday that he would introduce the articles on January 28, the day US President George W. Bush is scheduled to deliver his State of the Union speech.

"We already know the State of the Union," Kucinich said. "It's a lie!"

"[The] Bush administration led the nation to war on the basis of erroneous information that it methodically propagated and that culminated in military action against Iraq on March 19, 2003," the 61-year-old congressman quoted the Center for Public Integrity's recently released report on Washington lies prior to the Iraq invasion.

"In short, the [US] president and the vice president [Dick Cheney] lied and four-thousand of our soldiers died," Kucinich said during his speech in the United States House of Representatives.

"The president and the vice president lied and a million innocent Iraqis died in a war that has cost us 2 trillion dollars, when people here in the States are losing their jobs, their healthcare, their homes, their dignity," he continued.

"If impeachment is off the table, then the truth is off the table. If the truth is off the table, this House will be living a lie," he exclaimed.

Kucinich's statements wreaked havoc on the House floor; Republicans strongly voiced their objection to his remarks.

Florida's Republican congressman, Cliff Stearns, termed Kucinich's statements a 'clear and egregious violation of House rules'.

"Kucinich used the House floor to launch a personal attack against President Bush and Vice President Cheney and accused them of lying to the American people," Stearns added.

Many Americans remain dissatisfied with the Iraq war, claiming it was launched with no justification other than 'Bushite lies'. The US president and his top echelons invaded Iraq under the false pretext that Iraq has weapons of mass destruction.

This was probably orchestrated by Nancy Pelosi and the defeatocrats just as the president is about to make his last State of the Union address.

If Dennis wants to talk about Bush’s refusal to secure the border, then he’d (Dennis) might have some credibility on the issue of impeachment.

[2ndDivisionVet]

Dennis is an open borders, LaRaza, Reconquista guy, so that’ll never happen.

[Brett66]

Doesn’t he do this every month?

[Cicero]

This the typical Dem response to Bush’s praise of Nancy Pelosi in his SOTUS.

And how many times has Dennis introduced those articles now? I keep losing track. Either way, someone might want to mention to him that the president will be leaving office within a year.

Nahh, strike that, I wanna read what the peanut gallery has come up with as ‘charges’; it’d be a blast to see W step up to the mike, announce his resignation due to the charges, and that President Chaney will be giving the State of the Union speech tonight.

I thought articles of irrelevancy were filed against Kucinich years ago

[Red Badger]

And he wonders why he’s being primaried?.......

[massgopguy]

I’d like to see W single out Kusinich as the biggest POS in the Congress.

[evets]

Will President Bush resign? CHENEY ‘08!!!

[MAexile]

When did Kucinich beam back down?

You would think a few days in a UFO might change his perspective a little.

[muawiyah]

You want I should hurt this puke boss?

[Doctor Raoul]

PressTV is an English language outlet of Iran (not kidding).

[sourcery]

I thought articles of irrelevancy were filed against Kucinich years ago

They were tabled as irrelevent...

[Ron in Acreage]

Will the bill have McCains name first or second?

[bmwcyle]

[Sir Hailstone]

Is K00kcinich off his meds again?!?!!?

[Allegra]

Does Dennis Kucinich labor under the illusion that he is actually relevant?
