Kucinich urges Bush impeachment

Democratic presidential candidate Rep. Dennis Kucinich, D-Ohio and five other speakers advocated the impeachment of President George Bush and Vice President Dick Cheney at a presentation in Filene Auditorium on Monday night. The presentation, called a “teach-in,” featured a panel of speakers and drew a crowd made up largely of New England residents, as well as a few Dartmouth students who support Kucinich’s candidacy.

On the website Democracy for New Hampshire, one of the event’s sponsors, the teach-in is described as an educational forum to relay the general history and structure of impeachment. The content of the evening consisted mainly of reasons why the panelists believed that Bush and Cheney have violated the Constitution, and the event served as a forum for citizens to voice their discontent with the current administration.

A banner which proclaimed in red capital letters “Impeach Bush and Cheney” hung over the panel. Representatives of the sponsor organizations handed out bumper stickers and orange bracelets stamped with the same message and “impeach-mint” peppermints. Some audience members arrived wearing buttons or stickers calling for the president’s impeachment, and others donned them as soon as they arrived.

Kucinich spoke towards the end of the program, emphasizing his perception that the situation was urgent.

“It is all on the line today,” Kucinich said. “Our democracy is in danger.”

Fellow panelist Tim Carpenter, of the Progressive Democrats of America, said that the nation is in the midst of a “constitutional crisis,” for which U.S. Army veteran Adrienne Kinne said that the American people should hold the government accountable “by whatever means necessary.”

3. LOL

At this point I'm in full agreement. The Democrats have done an awful job at stopping this war and many of them refuse to cut funding. If they were able to at least come through on those then I might not be in agreement with this impaechament idea.

I'm full on board now.

7. So far, the leadership has tried to bust a boulder with tweezers.

Kudos to Kooch, for breaking out the sledgehammer.

8. Cheers to the good Congressmen for saying what needs to be said!

:toast:

10. On that point in particular, Kucinich stands alone.

And he is absolutely right. I don't understand how the Democrats can believe the party can survive turning a blind eye, again. It's wrong, it's dangerous, and quite frankly it is reprehensible.

11. Why is he the lone voice?

I'm with Kucinich all the way on this.

12. Almost like

Voices In The Wilderness..even after 7 years of this bushit..but having the corporatemediawhores backing up your every move hasn't hurt.

If there were Justice..then the US cmw would all be taken to The Hague right along with those they propped up.

13. K and R

The american people can't stand W...look at the polls.

A majority of the Dems are complicit in the loss of our Democracy. And they are in full support of Corporatization of our gov't.

It's the Rothschilds, stupid!

[Amanita]

14. And that's why he's the guy!

15. Who else is saying this?

Why aren't there more people like Dennis?
