Democrat Dennis Kucinich introduced a 35-count resolution to impeach U.S. President George W. Bush, claiming that the president set out to deceive the nation, and violated his oath of office with the Iraq war.
Addressing the House of Representatives on Monday evening, the Ohio congressman and former presidential candidate accused the administration of a number of offenses, including lying to Congress and the public about its reasons for the 2003 invasion of Iraq.
He said Bush "fraudulently" justified the war on Iraq and misled "the American people and members of Congress to believe Iraq possessed weapons of mass destruction so as to manufacture a false case for war."
"President George W. Bush, by such conduct, is guilty of an impeachable offense warranting removal from office," Kucinich said.
House Speaker Nancy Pelosi said Congress would not pursue the impeachment of Bush saying it was "off the table," RIA Novosti reports.
Last time impeachment process was launched against President Bill Clinton in 2000 over the Lewinski case. Clinton was accused of sexual harassment and abuse of power. However, he succeeded to avoid impeachment.
It’s been going for over two hours now.
Clinton did not avoid impeachment. Duh...what is going on in our schools?
This so yesterday.
lol

Well, he is obviously deranged.
Does this mean we get President Cheney for the next seven months?

....and 18 million moonbats simultaneously orgasmed.
Fixed it.
Didn’t something like this happen in the past year? I have faint memories of a Dem proposing articles of impeachment and the Republicans voted for it just to force their hand and make them look silly. When was this?
Air America kept on cutting to this live last night and acting like it was Nixon all over again. With at least 35 articles, at least one must be true!
I believe it was earlier than 2000 too. But with today's public edjumacation, who's counting. Facts don't mean squat as long as you have good self esteem.
I read it took him 4 and 1/2 hours to read off the "crimes"
Wait a minute, didn’t this kook try this before?
Stupid f-ing liberal socialist jerks. They are so stupid, they don’t know how stupid they look....
LOL!
