rawstory.com — In the March issue of GQ, Wil S. Hylton argues that Vice President Richard Cheney should be impeached for committing high crimes and misdemeanors. Hylton crafts six articles of impeachment because a timid Republican Congress and a refusal to act by the new Democratic leadership means that the Fourth Estate must take the mantle of indictment.

With the time/money spent to write this lameduck article, GQ could have built countless homes for Katrina victims, could have supplied countless food pantries for the hungry, could have trained 100s of disenfranchised people for jobs. We're applauding GQ when they are effectively doing nothing to help the citizens of the US. Lets instead write all our media-outlets and corporations to encourage them to take part in social programs that actually help people, not writing flim-flam(sorry, not a word, but it's what came out of my mouth) articles. Through community-empowerment will the gov't be changed.

That's how crap like this makes it to the front page.

Wow..... had a good laugh with that one. You guys defending GQ should really get out more. Yes I have read a GQ once or twice while waiting at a dentist's office or something. But if you think it is hard hitting news, you should really expand your reading horizons.

"In all of this, Richard B. Cheney has acted in a manner contrary to his trust as vice president and subversive of constitutional government, to the great prejudice of justice and to the manifest injury of the people of the United States."I've read this sentence structure in almost every draft Articles of Impeachment I've seen. Is there a grammatical error at the end ("and to the manifest injury")? Should we update the language before we mail copies to our representatives?Does this sound better?: "In all of this, Richard B. Cheney has acted in a manner contrary to his trust as vice president and subversive of constitutional government, to the great prejudice of justice and so as to manifest injury on the people of the United States."

>> Impeach that corrupt oil-hungry fat pig.how can you impeach someone who's not even in the white house anymore? Al Gore INHERITED all of that delicious Occidental oil stock, and besides, he can't help it if buddhist nuns are so generous and twinkies are so damned tasty!

For the price of the Iraq war, we could all have health insurance, rebuilt new Orleans, and a moonbase. I think I'll forgive GQ.

Well it would sound that way if you interpret manifest injury to mean, manifesting injury, or that his acts are causing injury. However this is not the case, "manifest injury" is a legal term. I believe it means it's a condition to an exposure. So ....to the great prejudice of justice and to the "condition of that exposure caused injury" to the people of the United States. At least I think. It comes from the legalese in Nixon's articles. I'd like to point out I am not an expert, so i can't give full confidence to this explanation. I hope it helps.

P.S. I made some grammatical errors (one is: I hope it helps) in the last post, funny because it was about grammar. How ever digg's time limit made me unable to correct them, Sorry.
