<DIV>The bill isn't taken seriously because it was written by Dennis Kucinich.

The bill is sponsored by Rep. Dennis <BR>Kucinich, D-Ohio, was launched on
Tuesday.

I don't know how <BR>impeachment works and I don't know if the actions necessarily have to be <BR>illegal or not. Was anything Hitler did a crime in Germany? Anyway, he <BR>is accused of lying to the public and to Congress about WMDs, knowing <BR>before-hand that there weren't any, and for saber-rattling against <BR>Iran. I disagree with his doing all of that, but I don't know that he <BR>should be impeached for it. Maybe for making torture ok, taking away <BR>habeus corpus, warrent-less
wiretaps, and other things that I would <BR>assume are crimes.<BR><BR>It sounds like there isn't much backing for this. Has anyone run into <BR>this in the news? I found a couple of news sites using Google, but <BR>didn't find anything on the MSNBC, CNN, or Fox News websites directly <BR>about this. Maybe it was featured on Tuesday?<BR><BR>Paul<BR><BR>=======================================================<BR>List services made available by First Step Internet, <BR>serving the communities of the Palouse since 1994. <BR>http://www.fsr.net <BR>mailto:Vision2020@moscow.com<BR>=======================================================<BR></BLOCKQUOTE><BR><p>
