Congressman Kucinich embodies the American spirit, heart and soul. He stood proud and tall and alone last night. It is a rare opportunity to feel so proud of an American politician.

In the doing he has not only defied the Republicans, but unfathomably, the Democrats as well, Nancy Peliosi chief among them - to her eternal shame. Why is it so few of our so-called representatives are interested in the truth and in demanding justice for a nation deceived?

There are simply no words to describe how proud I feel of this man who cares more about restoring this nation and representing the people, than in paying self-serving allegiance to the powers that be - may he continue to lead the way and see to it that each of these allegations are duly answered.

Now, do your own part and let your U.S. representative know that you strongly support impeachment hearings before the House Judiciary Committee and further proceedings on the House floor. Please take a moment to let your U.S. representative know that you support the impeachment of George W. Bush by clicking on the following link:

As Steve Fox, Campaign Director of the American Freedom Campaign Action Fund stated so well:
The founders of our country feared more than anything else the prospect of an executive who put his own power and desires above the Constitution. Congress was given the power of impeachment so that it could remove any president who committed the high crime of violating the Constitution during his (or her) term in office.

A strong case can be made that no president in the history of this country is more deserving of impeachment than George W. Bush. If he is not impeached, the bar for impeachment will have been raised so high that it might as well no longer exist. Future presidents will know that they can violate the Constitution at will, confident in the fact that Congress does not have the courage as an institution to do anything about it.

Outtasight!

I always knew that there was a great reason (or in this case several) why I supported Dennis. Obama should consider Dennis as a VP

Article XXXVI

Treason.

I watched the last 3 hours of Rep. Kucinich's indictment of GWB. I applaud Dennis Kucinich for goiong ahead and doing his constitutional duty., It is unfortunate that the bulk of the House of Representatives will not follow their oath of office and join Kucinich in demanding impeachment of both Bush and Cheney.
Every one of them have taken an oath to support, defend and protect the Constitution of the United States. Why are they not doing it? I understand that Bush and Cheney have nothing but contempt for the Constitution and the people of the United STates, but I actually was naive enough to believe that the Representatives cared about more than just keeping their jobs and the big money lobbyists. At the very least, they should allow investigations into the charges that Kucinich has brought forward. You go Dennis!!

Who owns Pelosi? Really. its obvious she's bought-and-paid-for. what do they have on her?

its not like the trial would be that long, Bush has admitted to most of this stuff in public and on the record.

I do think Dennis' move is wonderful. Yet, militarism is a horrible disease and a cultural way of life deeply embedded in our society and economy. Militarism will not surrender quietly or non-violently. All the articles of impeachment have creedence -- in a country where the constitution is respected and enforced. Whether we still have that respect and quality of enforcement is the question and is what will determine the worth of our future.

i think it is high time to remind pelosi and others who exactly they work for and who elects them. this administration repeatedly and blatantly broke the laws of this nation and should be held accountable for it. when i think of what the repubs dragged this nation thru for being dishonest about receiving oral sex it would be laughable were it not so sad. it's outrageous to me that the american people are not DEMANDING these people be held accountable.

Go Dennis!

And let's get Pelosi out of the Speaker's chair. I don't care who's bought her, or if she is (and I know this strains credulity) sincere in believing that impeachment would be a harmful distraction. It doesn't matter to me - all that does matter is that she's not doing her freakin' job.

According to a WaPo story in December of 2007, Nancy Pelosi was part of a Congressional group that was briefed on torture...she is guilty of Article 18 of this indictment of BushCo too...and that's just for starters.

We have a situation where we have one party: The WAR party and most of the legislators are beholden to the war machine.

Nancy Pelosi is no exception.

Wished DK had still been on the ballot, but by last primary day he was long gone.

Sad that this had to be posted from an Irish newspaper article! Within the Empire, the news has been cancelled.

Great news...from Ireland.

msnbc.com is taking a poll on impeachment. When I voted a few minutes ago, the results showed that, out of over 600,000 votes, 89% favored impeachment!

Yes, why do we have to read this from Ireland? And where is the msnbc poll? Pls provide a link.

USA Today, 68% support impeachment --

http://blogs.usatoday.com/ondeadline/2008/06/democrat-files.html

Can we impeach Pelosi first, then Cheney and then finish with Bush?

Hey, Dennis. I really loved you when you were a candidate in 2004. I also found you and Mike Graval of Alaska to really be the highlights of the early Democratic debates this time around.

And anybody who can land a tall, gorgeous redhead half his age like Elizabeth rates very high in my book.

But face it, these calls for impeachment don't amount to much more than all the useless non-binding resolutions that the Democrats in Congress have been proposing since they gained control in January 2007.

I know your heart is in the right place, but then such is also the case with someone who sends a Hallmark card.

Give it a rest, do as good a job as is possible as you hopefully continue to represent your congressional district and above all, take good care of Elizabeth.

Saw some pictures of you in Google Images with another one of my favorite redheads, author Marianne Williamson, formerly from my neck of the woods, Houston, Texas. I don't know the purpose of whatever occasions at which you were photographed but you do keep good company.

Were it not for you and "Crazy Mike" on the Democratic side and Ron Paul on the Republican side I don't think I could have suffered through all the presidential debates that I did.

And you other Common Dreams readers are thinking.:,,,,Look at this guy, he actually thinks he's talking to Dennis Kucinich.

Let me tell you, folks, When you're pushing 69 and living on the outskirts of Senility City, you can think you're talking to whoever you want.

Amen.

It takes guts. Only Democrats got Anthrax letters.

Hitler rose to power as it became known that people who opposed him were beaten, killed or otherwise destroyed. Families (as in Valerie Plame) are targeted.

Kucinich until recently was unmarried, and has no children as of yet, I believe. He was always, therefore, in a position to be more brave than anyone with a family.

"Plumo or Plata" is the Spanish formula: "Lead or Silver". It's the offer made to any official from lowly border guard to Congress-Critter who might be of service to the crime syndicates. The offer is also payable to your daughter.

I must preface my final paragraph (below):

I know and love more about Judaism than most anyone who support this war. Albert Einstein (P.192, "Ideas and Opinions") opposed establishment of a Jewish state with temporal powers, for fear that it would tend to diminish, even destroy the essential spirituality of Judaism.

EINSTEIN: "We are no longer the Jews of the Maccabee period.

EINSTEIN: "A return to a nation in the political sense of the word would be equivalent to turning away from the spiritualization of our community which we owe to the genius of our prophets.

Einstein's predictions again prove correct, as with Eisenhower's warning about the "Military-Industrial Complex."

No matter whom it may serve, Nazi is as Nazi does: i.e. secret prisons, torture, big lies, death camps, demonization of an entire dusky middle-Eastern population, and above all, WAR PROFIT.

The Bush war-whore/Zion Nazi crime syndicate, who currently possess America's and Israel's administrations, is perfectly happy to kill millions. It starts wars as its main profitable enterprise. Their money is unlimited, and opposed only by individual conscience and willingness to face deadly danger. Kucinich's wife already knew the score already, when she married him. May God protect them, and may a grain of their courage be found in the hearts of all Americans. May this impeachment occur and be tried to its proper conclusion.

p.s. Also, call Dennis Kucinich's office to let him know he speaks for you! 202.225.5871

Isn't it disgusting that a newspaper from Ireland must bring us news of our Congress? Not a single word has been mentioned on MSN regarding this proposal. As with the Impeachment proposal of VP Cheney ,it wasn't mentioned either. My family didn't know about the Cheney Impeachment until today. They do not have a computer.

Rep. Kucinich is to be commended, his constituants should be proud to have him as their Rep.

I Love This Man!

The half hour that I was able to watch, made my whole week.

Forget serial impeachments, it will cost too much and take topo long. The government will be much more enterpreneurial and perform more like a business (isn't that what the neocons say they want?)if they make it a wholesale impeachment...Nancy, Condi, Dick, Dubya and the rest of the regime and its enablers...all at once.

Amen.

Bravo! Bush is now traipsing around Europe on his Good-bye Tour, when he should be on trial. Way to go, Dennis Kucinich!

It was difficult to hear Dennis because the sound of snoring by the rest of Congress was deafening.

The articles of impeachment are all true. It is also true that all the members of congress were seen to cheer and clap every word from Mr George Bush in his false speeches of fanning the flames of war. And now every word in speeches proposing more sanctions on Iran, with aggressive intent, for the very same base motivations will be clapped and cheered in excited solidarity. So is congress going to impeach itself? No one in congress has expressed anger at being deceived by the presidential administration. Their is no shock and outrage because the US congress has always known of and supported the crimes of the US of Zionism at any time and place. The deceptions are convenient rationalizations, not needing to be true to justify the total corruption of power required for invasion and looting of Middle East Oil. The payoff is and always has been the large sums of money for the system of war and oil futures acquisition.

Every congress person not supporting impeachment is guilty of great evil by their silence, whether or not they have personally profited from their position. The US congress has taken the role of stooges. The oil is still in Iraq and Iran, and land in Palestine, and is there for the taking by the US of Zionism. Nothing else has ever mattered to the US administration. All of the rest of the words skirting around the US wars of terror are flummery.

While Bush is on his farewell tour of Europe, I wonder if he will visit the Hague?

I watched his presentation for more than two hours. The documentation was solid. I am proud of Representative Kucinich.

Dennis Kucinich, my first choice for president in 04 & 08, the most patriotic person in Congress!! He took his oath to protect and defend the Constitution seriously. Contact Congress, and DEMAND they support Dennis! The reason he has no support from Democratic leadership is that, as Cindy Sheehan and Randi Rhodes have stated, they have been complicit collaborators, being told what was going on and failing to be whistleblowers. They are profiles in no courage!

We must contact John Conyers, and demand he cast off his shckles. I still have hope for this normally beautiful Congressman. What can they do to him?

.
Dump....Speaker of the House, Nancy Pelosi !!!!

Get on with the IMPEACHMENT of both Bush and Cheney....ASAP

Mark as TRAITORS and WAR CRIMINALS, all of the NeoCons who are, or have been members of this Fascist Regime!!!!!!!

Nominate Representative Dennis Kucinich for the Nobel Peace Prize, and the American Freedoms Medal !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

.

I do believe Dennis should introduce an article of impeachment for Nancy Pelosi too, and get her ass out of the way.

She and John Conyers are guilty of not enforcing our Constitution, or of insuring it cannot be enforced by Congress.

Who owns Pelosi? Really. its obvious she's bought-and-paid-for. what do they have on her?

Bill Clinton threw labor unions and working people overboard when he moved the Democratic party so far right it fell into the very dark, cold and sinister shadow of the Republicans. Most post-Clinton Democrats now simply want to be comfortable. They have discovered the joys of acquisitiveness, fine wine and fancy threads. Park Place is so much better than Baltic Avenue. And if you go to jail, you can't pass GO and collect $200. We just cannot have that. The so-called Two Party System is now a game of Monopoly in which two of the players, Republicans and Democrats, cannot lose. Only we, the third player, lose. Only we land on the properties with the blue and red hotels. Only we go bankrupt. Who owns Pelosi? FOLLOW THE MONEY!

Did all of you hear Kucinich's reelection website crashed and his staff thinks it might have been infiltrated by certain individuals who do not want the public to see the list of articles for impeachment?

I love it. Kucinich is the only congressman who has the balls to demand Bush's impeachment. I like Dennis for this reason, among others. But impeachment is too good for Bush and his henchman, Cheney. They should both be put on trial for war crimes, be convicted and imprisoned...or hung.

Rebelnow, great post!
claudius, ah, the beauty of fascism in cyberspace!

Or is it hanged?

rebelnow, what will it take to wake them up? like, oh what, the world is burning, people are dying, species are extincting, wtf? Did I do that?

CALL JUDICIARY MEMBERS BEFORE JUNE 20th.

I spent today and yesterday calling and talking with staffers of the Judiciary committee membership starting at the top and working my way down.

http://judiciary.house.gov/CommitteeMembership.aspx

Above is a link for all telephone numbers.

Here's a good question to ask (compliments of another CD poster tatti tatti)

"Can you actually conceive the idea of the former White House Press Secretary telling the world that a President went to war for lies and fabrications and the House of Representatives who as the body which is duty bound to bring charges for high crimes might do absolutely nothing about it?"

Elaborate from there. It's easy. Any of you I know could carry on an engaging conversation with any of these staffers. The very best conversation I had was with the office of Sheila Jackson Lee.

One of my follow up questions was: What does the American public have to do in order to have Congress stand up? What has to happen for them to understand the gravity of the situation? Tell us what we have to do to make the message resound loud and clear and we will do it. Tell us what do we have to do"

I am not saying this is a panacea. It is an opportunity. A final opportunity to be reinforced by the appearance of McClellan on June 20th. Their ears need to burn. They need to hear now. This is probably one of the last chances we will have to tie the testimony of McClellan to the House articles of impeachment. Give it one last shot. Give em hell.

When they say they will pass this message on to the congress member ask them what file the member keeps all these comments in since 70% of the American public have voiced their concerns since 2006 and all it has added up to is nothing as far as getting accountability for the death and destruction having been wreaked on this nation and the world by the criminals who occupy the WH.

This is my last vocal attempt to move members to stand outside the political box. Not sure it's going to mean a darn thing but I'm going out with one last attempt at communicating the level of frustration that has enveloped most of the American public.

Will you join me? They are getting lots of calls and the more the better.

And all the other members of congress and the senate know that it is the truth.
But Dennis Kucinich is the man with enough courage to tell the truth.

God bless and protect Dennis Kucinich. There is no better patriot.

Bush Republican, Nancy Pelosi, can not protect Bush forever. Dennis has entered the Articles of Impeachment into the Congressional record for both Bush and Cheney, so after Nancy is voted out, Bush and Cheney will be impeached because what the Bush administration has done is far worse than what any other president did that got impeached.

Impeachment is a MUST for the sake of America and the United States Constitution. Impeachment will preserve and protect the United States' Constitution and take Bush and Cheney out of office if they aren't already out of office. Afterwards charges must be brought against them in a court, so that they hopefully will spend the rest of their days in prison -- Gitmo would be preferable.

This is why Dennis Kucinich was my first choice to be the Democratic nominee. I hope Congress will get behind this. And, I hope American citizens will push their representative to act. But, like Kucinich's candidacy for president, it is a faint hope.

Pelosi must go. She should be hung right along with the rest of the Bush Crime Family. They should all hang!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Write D.K. in come November! Start now to get a groundswell of write-in votes started. Make this the BIGGEST write-in campaign in history. What have we got to lose? A vote for Obama is a vote for same-old/same-old anyway. (NOW Obama is looking to retired military for a V.P.!) If B.O.chooses D.K. as V.P. THEN I will vote for him. I'd rather do a write-in for a courageous TRUE patriot who speaks for me than hold my nose EVER again!!!

for transcript in pdf.....
http://chun.afterdowningstreet.org/amomentoftruth.pdf
outrageous

You go D K !!!

I hope that SOMEONE makes available the vote that is scheduled to come--I THINK tomorrow. Those who vote against Dennis's articles? Vote 'em the hell out!

Vote for impeachment here

Just to inject a note of caution:

If I were DK I would be very careful about flying in private aircraft. And staying away from tall buildings with lots of windows.

And DEFINITELY refusing to go hunting with Cheney.

This is the kind of courage that gets the hero killed these days.

And if something -does- happen to Mr. Kusinich, anyone want to bet it gets blamed on 'Iranian terrorists' ?

If a tree falls in the forest and no one is there to report on it...
