Constitutional Crisis


Yesterday, Monday the 9th of June 2008, Rep. Dennis Kucinich (D-Ohio) brought forth to the House floor his resolution to impeach President Bush. Read the twenty page, thirty-five article resolution, which Rep. Kucinich spent 290 minutes reading aloud Monday evening, right here. This evening it is being re-read by House clerks. The re-reading is going on now at the typing of this post. They're on paragraph five of page thirteen.

Last year, Rep. Kucinich introduced a similar resolution for Vice President Cheney. The resolution was not read aloud and was voted immediately to the House Judiciary Committee and has been subsequently ignored ever since. This time around, the gentleman from Ohio agreed for the same vote to take place only after it was agreed the resolution would be re-read. The vote is expected to take place tomorrow, Wednesday the 11th.

Just like the Cheney impeachment resolution, this will be sent to a purgatorial committee. It's not that the reasons for impeachment aren't valid and lawful, it's simply that our leaders (of both parties) choose not to enforce the President's or their own Constitutional oaths for political reasons.
