Articles of Impeachment filed against Cheney!


U.S. Democratic Congressman Dennis Kucinich filed three Articles of Impeachment against Vice President Richard Cheney on April 24th. Kucinich said he is doing this to try to stop Cheney from starting a war against Iran, as he had done under false pretences in 2003 against Iraq.

The three Articles of Impeachment charge that:

(1) Cheney manipulated the intelligence process and lied to the nation about Iraq having weapons of mass destruction;

(2) Cheney manipulated the intelligence process and lied to the nation about Iraq's alleged ties to Al Qaeda;

(3) Cheney has "openly threatened aggression against the Republic of Iran absent any real threat to the United States."

Further, subpoenas will be issued by two different House committees to Bush administration officials who have been obstructing inquiries into the lies used to get the U.S. into the Iraq war and into the controversial firing of U.S. Attorneys. (Click here for details)

The Vermont State Senate also passed a resolution on April 20, to impeach both President Bush and Vice-President Dick Cheney, by a vote of 16-9. The passage of a similar resolution by Vermont's House would require the Congress to consider impeachment (More detail)

Lyndon LaRouche first called for Cheney's removal from office in 2002, during the build-up for the Iraq war, and has led the campaign ever since. The LaRouche Youth Movement, who spearheaded the passage of an "Impeach Cheney" resolution at the Los Angeles County Democratic Committee recently, will again be raising the issue at the California State Democratic Party convention in San Diego on April 28.
