Main Stream Media, where are you????

Last night at approximately 7:30PM Rep. Dennis Kucinich (D-OH) took to the floor of the House of Representatives and for over 4 hours read his 35 Articles of Impeachment against President Bush. It was a true Mr. Smith Goes to Washington moment in history.

Strangely (not) there has been no mention of it on the evening news or even the 24 hour news channels. I couldn't find it mentioned on their web sites either. NO ONE but the liberal bloggers are discussing this. Even there the community is split as to whether this is a great thing or a foolish waste of time. Personally I come down on the side of this being a great thing. Whether or not this gets any traction I think that it is fantastic that someone has the guts and sense of patriotism to get it into the official record of the Congress.


ARTICLES OF IMPEACHMENT FOR PRESIDENT GEORGE W. BUSH Resolved, that President George W. Bush be impeached for high crimes and misdemeanors, and that the following articles of impeachment be exhibited to the United States Senate:Articles of impeachment exhibited by the House of Representatives of the United States of America in the name of itself and of the people of the United States of America, in maintenance and support of its impeachment against President George W. Bush for high crimes and misdemeanors.In his conduct while President of the United States, George W. Bush, in violation of his constitutional oath to faithfully execute the office of President of the United States and, to the best of his ability, preserve, protect, and defend the Constitution of the United States, and in violation of his constitutional duty to take care that the laws be faithfully executed, has committed the following abuses of power.
