See comments for a more user friendly format and tips to get them all through. - nowsamsara, on 07/24/2008, -11/+62Go Dennis Go!
Truly, a man of the people. - pinkpackrat, on 07/24/2008, -10/+50 It may be late in the game, but at least it is a symbol of our discontent. He's got guts and I applaud him.
I signed the petition--wish I thought it was more than just a symbolic gesture--but it's better than nothing! Hooray for Kucinich. - inactive, on 07/24/2008, -6/+33Questions from an American citizen;
Where are the rest of the Democrats on this?
Where is that worthless POS *****, Nancy Pelosi on this?
Why does this feel like "America and Dennis vs the Corrupt ***** in Capitol hill"??!!
Why do the Democrats spread their cheeks for the NeoCon Fascist dildo of Corporate America??
Why don't Americans get rid of ALL these people for once and all? - hockeyfighter09, on 07/24/2008, -8/+34I Love Dennis Kucinich
- cmccool, on 07/24/2008, -9/+33vote on it here: http://www.govit.com/H_RES_1258/Impeaching_George_ ...
- inactive, on 07/25/2008, -10/+32Hey if any of you idiot Neocons are having problems with reading comprehension, here it is again for your reference;
President George W. Bush, Vice President Richard B. Cheney, Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice, Secretary of Defense Donald H. Rumsfeld, and Attorney General Alberto Gonzales have committed violations and subversions of the Constitution of the United States of America in an attempt to carry out with impunity crimes against peace and humanity and war crimes and deprivations of the civil rights of the people of the United States and other nations, by assuming powers of an imperial executive unaccountable to law and usurping powers of the Congress, the Judiciary and those reserved to the people of the United States, by the following acts:
1) Seizing power to wage wars of aggression in defiance of the U.S. Constitution, the U.N. Charter and the rule of law; carrying out a massive assault on and occupation of Iraq, a country that was not threatening the United States, resulting in the death and maiming of over one hundred thousand Iraqis, and thousands of U.S. G.I.s.
2) Lying to the people of the U.S., to Congress, and to the U.N., providing false and deceptive rationales for war.
3) Authorizing, ordering and condoning direct attacks on civilians, civilian facilities and locations where civilian casualties were unavoidable.
4) Instituting a secret and illegal wiretapping and spying operation against the people of the United States through the National Security Agency.
5) Threatening the independence and sovereignty of Iraq by belligerently changing its government by force and assaulting Iraq in a war of aggression.
6) Authorizing, ordering and condoning assassinations, summary executions, kidnappings, secret and other illegal detentions of individuals, torture and physical and psychological coercion of prisoners to obtain false statements concerning acts and intentions of governments and individuals and violating within the United States, and by authorizing U.S. forces and agents elsewhere, the rights of individuals under the First, Fourth, Fifth, Sixth and Eighth Amendments to the Constitution of the United States, the Universal Declaration of Human Rights, and the International Covenant on Civil and Political Rights.
7) Making, ordering and condoning false statements and propaganda about the conduct of foreign governments and individuals and acts by U.S. government personnel; manipulating the media and foreign governments with false information; concealing information vital to public discussion and informed judgment concerning acts, intentions and possession, or efforts to obtain weapons of mass destruction in order to falsely create a climate of fear and destroy opposition to U.S. wars of aggression and first strike attacks.
8) Violations and subversions of the Charter of the United Nations and international law, both a part of the "Supreme Law of the land" under Article VI, paragraph 2, of the Constitution, in an attempt to commit with impunity crimes against peace and humanity and war crimes in wars and threats of aggression against Afghanistan, Iraq and others and usurping powers of the United Nations and the peoples of its nations by bribery, coercion and other corrupt acts and by rejecting treaties, committing treaty violations, and frustrating compliance with treaties in order to destroy any means by which international law and institutions can prevent, affect, or adjudicate the exercise of U.S. military and economic power against the international community.
9) Acting to strip United States citizens of their constitutional and human rights, ordering indefinite detention of citizens, without access to counsel, without charge, and without opportunity to appear before a civil judicial officer to challenge the detention, based solely on the discretionary designation by the Executive of a citizen as an "enemy combatant."
10) Ordering indefinite detention of non-citizens in the United States and elsewhere, and without charge, at the discretionary designation of the Attorney General or the Secretary of Defense.
11) Ordering and authorizing the Attorney General to override judicial orders of release of detainees under INS jurisdiction, even where the judicial officer after full hearing determines a detainee is wrongfully held by the government.
12) Authorizing secret military tribunals and summary execution of persons who are not citizens who are designated solely at the discretion of the Executive who acts as indicting official, prosecutor and as the only avenue of appellate relief.
13) Refusing to provide public disclosure of the identities and locations of persons who have been arrested, detained and imprisoned by the U.S. government in the United States, including in response to Congressional inquiry.
14) Use of secret arrests of persons within the United States and elsewhere and denial of the right to public trials.
15) Authorizing the monitoring of confidential attorney-client privileged communications by the government, even in the absence of a court order and even where an incarcerated person has not been charged with a crime.
16) Ordering and authorizing the seizure of assets of persons in the United States, prior to hearing or trial, for lawful or innocent association with any entity that at the discretionary designation of the Executive has been deemed "terrorist."
17) Engaging in criminal neglect in the aftermath of Hurricane Katrina, depriving thousands of people in Louisiana, Mississippi and other Gulf States of urgently needed support, causing mass suffering and unnecessary loss of life.
18) Institutionalization of racial and religious profiling and authorization of domestic spying by federal law enforcement on persons based on their engagement in noncriminal religious and political activity.
19) Refusal to provide information and records necessary and appropriate for the constitutional right of legislative oversight of executive functions.
20) Rejecting treaties protective of peace and human rights and abrogation of the obligations of the United States under, and withdrawal from, international treaties and obligations without consent of the legislative branch, and including termination of the ABM treaty between the United States and Russia, and rescission of the authorizing signature from the Treaty of Rome which served as the basis for the International Criminal Court.
more when I have time... - grungegbunny, on 07/24/2008, -3/+20How bad does a president need to ***** up before its impeachable? Obviously war crimes and lying aren't enough? LOL
- ChemiosMurphy, on 07/24/2008, -9/+24He's the last standing Democrat. He needs to be the VEEP
- nowsamsara, on 07/24/2008, -11/+23I signed both: http://kucinich.us/ and http://www.govit.com/H_RES_1258/Impeaching_George_ ...
I also stumbled http://bloggingforkucinich.blogspot.com/ because i want the message heard and it's time sensitive. Here's my Stumble write up: http://digits.stumbleupon.com/review/23721493/
I appreciate the people who responded to my shout and particularly the friends who shouted it also! You guys are awesome. - InetRoadkill, on 07/24/2008, -1/+12Won't do any good. Congress goes on vacation in a week. Kucinich could provide a signed confession and a video of Bush bragging about his crimes and it wouldn't matter. Pelosi and other top dem's hands are dirty too. They can't expose Bush without exposing their own roles in the wiretapping and torture programs. The only thing that we can do is to throw the bastards out in Nov.
- thecatcantalk, on 07/24/2008, -6/+16Whatever. I'm a Republican, a WASP from Connecticut, a 40-year old preppie, and I want Bush impeached, too!.
No ***** Digg's overflowing with knee-jerk liberals, that doesn't change the fact that our President's a criminal, grossly incompetent, arrogant, loudmouthed fool; a phony cowboy, a boarding-school bully, an entitled Exeter jackass who deserves a savage kick in the ass.
If you can't see that, then you deserve the ass-raping he's giving you. - anagoge, on 07/24/2008, -8/+18Do you think it'd be too much to hope for that Obama would choose someone like Kucinich as his running mate?
- miamidolfan13, on 07/24/2008, -10/+20George W is the worst president in history. at least Hoover will be happy.
- omenmedia, on 07/25/2008, -6/+15Kucinich is the man. Balls the size of mountains, and a hot wife to boot. I wish him all the best.
- tomarocco, on 07/24/2008, -1/+10I'm a hot wing liberal.
- inactive, on 07/24/2008, -3/+11---------------"I swear the majority of digg users are left wing liberals"--------------------
Our forefathers were "Liberals" dumbass!
Maybe if your dumb, inbred ass had gone to school past the third grade, you would have heard of some of them:
Jefferson,
Madison,
Washington,
Hancock,
Monroe,
Paine......
Without them, there would be no United States.
And Corkey, for your reference America has a conservative party with two right wings, known as the Republicans and Democrats. Neither one can provide long term answers when they focus on short term solutions to appease lobbyists.
Your idiotic comment only further proves how everything has now become a joke. The media is successfully training mass consciousness to have a low attention-span and cynical, willful ignorance of important issues in our world. And your ass is the obvious result.
So I suggest you get your skul fvked head out of your poop shoot and wake up to the fact that it is a corporate oligarchy which masquerades as a democracy in America! - Ebonsteel, on 07/25/2008, -2/+10As much as I'd love to see it, I think Dennis would be too polarizing a figure for the VP slot at this time. Dennis is a TRUE Liberal (and as a proud Liberal myself, I mean that with the highest praise possible), while Obama (as much as I like him, have donated to him, and look forward to voting for him) is much more of a centrist.
I hope Obama creates a Cabinet-level position for Diplomacy like Dennis' Department of Peace concept, and puts Dennis in charge. - Kanten, on 07/25/2008, -0/+8Because there's too many idiots that keep re-electing them.
- grungegbunny, on 07/24/2008, -4/+12No citizen is above the law. We don't let cost factor in when other people go to trial.
- Rotzooi, on 07/24/2008, -13/+21I am as mad as hell and I'm not gonna take this anymore!!
Dennis FTW - grungegbunny, on 07/24/2008, -3/+11If you say we shouldn't be doing this because it would cost too much or whatever lame-ass excuse you decide to pull from your rectum, think of this. We are at a tipping point of American history do we want to go down this road again? Overreaching presidential powers, and purposely spreading false propaganda for a war has to be quelled to prevent it in our future.
- MrXfromPlanetX, on 07/25/2008, -1/+8I am a registered Republican and believe George Bush and Dick Cheney should be impeached and tried for war crimes

"The Prosecution of George W. Bush for Murder" by Vincent Bugliosi -- the same man who put Charles Manson behind bars.
http://www.amazon.com/Prosecution-George-W-Bush-Mu ... - papastout, on 07/24/2008, -2/+9Here's hoping!
- anagoge, on 07/24/2008, -2/+8I love his wife.
- jdago, on 07/25/2008, -3/+9GOD HELP this country. we really need to get out there and vote. this november really will tell the truth. lets vote all the incumbents out. what have we got to lose? theres got to be some people who still care about the working men and women of this country. exercise your right and vote vote vote!!!!!!!!!!!
- Ebonsteel, on 07/24/2008, -0/+6Wouldn't it have been amazing to have a gorgeous, pierced redhead as first lady?
*sighs* Ah well, I can dream. - grungegbunny, on 07/24/2008, -6/+12He would have made a good VP pick.
- inactive, on 07/25/2008, -8/+14We should all say...THANK YOU DENNIS
- FoxOrian, on 07/25/2008, -4/+10His expression and smile next to the large letters "Impeach Bush Now!" please me.
- inactive, on 07/25/2008, -1/+6We have the best government MONEY CAN BUY
- charm803, on 07/25/2008, -4/+9It's great the Kucinich and Ron Paul both got really active for the rest of us after withdrawing from the elections.
I would love to see Hillary also so some more for the people, although I do realize she's now campaigning for Obama but I think she had a great following, loyal following, after withdrawing from the campaign and would love to see her use it for the better.
Kudos to Kucinich! - mithrasinvictus, on 07/25/2008, -0/+5An (very recently) ex neo-con? I don't think so.
- Beatmiser, on 07/25/2008, -1/+6'all they do is crap like this'
Could you cite some other recent examples of Congressional hearings where evidence is being presented against the POTUS for the express purpose of creating articles for impeachment? Because I'm pretty sure that their approval ratings are at their lowest because they've done nothing at all to actually curb the power of the President and in fact bent over face down ass up every time he asks. - Ebonsteel, on 07/25/2008, -4/+8I'm a married father of four, I own my own business and I am a lifelong and happy Liberal. Go ***** yourself, you myopic douche.
- hwy9nightkid, on 07/25/2008, -0/+4Lose*
unless you meant loosen up...which you didn't =) - Kanten, on 07/25/2008, -2/+6At least a cabinet post for Kucinich I'm hoping.
For VP, my pick is Wesley Clark, among other things he's basically the anti-McCain. - SwedishNinja, on 07/25/2008, -0/+4Any one know what time this will be on cspan? I know nothing will come of it, but it should be interesting to see.
- JasonHaley, on 07/25/2008, -0/+4If the Dems hands are dirty then won't there just be *new* dirty hands sitting in office on November? At the very least Kucinich's success will give *all dirty hands* a reason to worry.. and more power to the clean hands.
- freaky2k, on 07/25/2008, -0/+4Maybe he sucks at running a town, but he's one of the very very few politicians who are bringing serious issues up on congress that nobody else is willing to touch.
Bush needs to be punished for his crimes. - inactive, on 07/25/2008, -6/+10thisguy457 It's not a waste of time. Dennis is pretty much the man for standing up to our crappy government.
Dennis believes in peace, hence this photo below.
http://socalspaces.com/the-best-dennis-kucinich-pi ... - MacBookForMe, on 07/24/2008, -11/+15I respect the efforts of this man and his team!
- adrianscholl, on 07/25/2008, -1/+4Dugg for an amazing website that I did not know about.
- mdlyn26, on 07/25/2008, -0/+3DUGG
- grungegbunny, on 07/25/2008, -0/+3@lowjeep
Yes yes your right! Bush being conservative has definitely practiced small transparent government. - edwartica, on 07/25/2008, -0/+3I wish he had a shot at the presidency.
- MoClippa, on 07/25/2008, -1/+4Please tell me you're a troll and not just retarded.
- inactive, on 07/25/2008, -0/+3We must stop tyranny now while we have a chance of doing so without an armed rebellion!!!
