I just discovered through the website StumbleUpon that Congressman (and potential Presidential candidate) Dennis J. Kucinich submitted articles of impeachment against Vice President Dick Cheney to Congress yesterday.

Bizarrely (and somewhat suspiciously) this doesn’t seem to have made the mainstream news — not even the trusty old BBC website has the story. I learnt about it from an article on a website called The Raw Story, Kucinich announces impeachment charges against Vice President Cheney. I was a little skeptical at first, but the link to copies of the articles of impeachment on Kucinich’s website seem to be real.

Kucinich, who was my favourite candidate in the last Presidential election, makes the point that it’s important to impeach Cheney before Bush, because if Bush was impeached first, Cheney would then become President!
