McDermott calls for articles of impeachment
Yesterday on the floor of the House, Representative Jim McDermott (D-WA) called for the impeachment of Dick Cheney. He became the tenth co-sponsor of of H.RES.333, a bill from Dennis Kucinich (D-OH) that introduces 3 Articles of Impeachment against the Vice-President. Here are the other sponsors:
Yvette D. Clarke (D-NY)
Lacy Clay (D-MO)
Keith Ellison (D-MN)
Henry "Hank" Johnson Jr. (D-GA)
Barbara Lee (D-CA)
Jan Schakowsky (D-IL)
Maxine Waters (D-CA)
Lynn Woolsey (D-CA)
Albert Russell Wynn (D-MD)
Side note: Henry "Hank" Johnson Jr., elected in 2006, is one of the first two Buddhists to serve in Congress. The other, Mazie Hirono (D-HI), was also elected in 2006. A little Congressional trivia for you. On a lovely Friday afternoon.
