Breaking >> Kucinich's Cheney impeachment presser is now rescheduled for 5:00 pm ET

http://firstread.msnbc.msn.com/archive/2007/04/24/166796.aspx

From NBC's Mike Viqueira
Well, it looks like Kucinich will be calling today to impeach Vice President Cheney after all.

The Ohio congressman (and Democratic presidential candidate) had earlier postponed his presser to announce his initiative to impeach Cheney after news broke of the veep's doctor visit to check on his leg. The apparently ungrateful Cheney promptly left the hospital, traveled to Capitol Hill, appeared before the cameras, and then put a rhetorical leg to Harry Reid's backside.

Thus chastened, Kucinich's presser is now rescheduled for 5:00 pm ET.

4. Do you think MSNBC is going to cover it? Is anyone going to cover it? I hope so, but
I wouldn't be surprised if it's ignored, like they always seem to ignore Dennis.

6. plus, today he had another "blood clot event" he went to the doctor "unannounced"
Edited on Tue Apr-24-07 02:53 PM by NightWatcher
I think that he will have a "health problem" about two seconds before the serious shit hits the fan. He has set this up way in advance.

17. Dennis is an important voice. I count on him and others like him
to buoy me up when action seems too difficult.

It will be interesting, too, to see how the corporate media handles this.

15. The question is: will the MSM even show up or REPORT it ???

Kucinich throws impeachment party. No one from major news media shows. Top story tomorrow: Sheryl Crow insists we don't use much TP. :rofl:

20. I saw Kooch in CT 10 days ago---he said impeachment is the one thing people across the country ask
him about and want to do. :applause:

And guess who just LOST my vote? Richardson of NM, stating on one of the cable shows last night that there's nothing wrong with the NRA. :puke:

34. He listened to us!
I called his office and urged him to go ahead. It's almost like he hear our requests.


Now I have to find out where I can watch the press conference...

36. Let's hope this goes somewhere.
Yesterday I called a woman who was my neighbor where I grew up. She's probably close to 80 years old now. Talk about in touch. She's at wits end over what has happened since 2000. It has been years since we talked. One of the last things she said was "Please, do something. Make a change." It was a call to action from an older American. We have a responsibility to not let this country continue to slide.

Maybe in our own small ways we can make a difference. I'm no Cindy Sheehan. But together we all make a difference.

Yay! Maybe this will preempt the attack on Iran.
