Rep. Clay Co-Sponsers Cheney Impeachment Resolution

They ought to be lining up to support this resolution. The fact that they’re not shows what a messed up state our country and government are in. Where’s the polls on impeachment? I’d like to see what the American people say about it.

WASHINGTON (AP) - Missouri Rep. William Lacy Clay is co’sponsoring a measure that calls for the impeachment of Vice President Dick Cheney.
The St. Louis Democrat is one of two House members to sign onto the resolution. The other co’sponsor is Rep. Janice Schakowsky, D-Ill.

The measure was introduced last month by Ohio Rep. Dennis Kucinich, who is also waging a long’shot bid for the Democratic presidential nomination. It is not expected to get far, even in a Congress controlled by Democrats.

In a statement, Clay said he agreed to co’sponsor the resolution at the urging of his constituents.

“I believe that Mr. Cheney deliberately manipulated the intelligence process to deceive the Congress of the United States and the American people,” Clay said. “The arrogant abuse of power and the complete disregard for the truth needs to stop.”
