On Capitol Hill, Democratic Congressmember Dennis Kucinich has introduced thirty-five articles of impeachment against President Bush. On Monday, Kucinich took to the House floor to accuse President Bush of war crimes and deceiving the public in the run-up to the Iraq invasion.

Rep. Dennis Kucinich: “All of these actions by the President and his agents and subordinates exhibit a disregard for the truth and a recklessness with regard to national security, nuclear proliferation and a global role of the United States military that is not merely unacceptable, but is dangerous in a commander-in-chief.”

Kucinich introduced a similar resolution against Vice President Dick Cheney last year. The measures have come in defiance of Democratic Party leadership, which has declared impeachment “off the table.”
