Berks County (PA) Votes Unanimously for Impeachment Resolution

Submitted by dlindorff on April 21, 2007 - 4:16pm. ImpeachForChange
The Berks County Democratic Committee located in eastern Pennsylvania, a mostly rural county region north of Philadelphia, has passed a resolution calling on the Congress to initiate impeachment proceedings against President George W. Bush and Vice President Dick Cheney.

The resolution, which passed unanimously on Friday, April 20, cites such offenses as lying the nation into war, conspiring to put the country at war, violating the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act by ordering the National Security Agency to spy on Americans without a warrant, ordering the torturing of prisoners, stripping Americans of their rights by holding them indefinitely without charge, denying them access to an attorney, and denying them habeas rights to go before a court, bringing the U.S. into international disrepute, imperiling the nation, and violating their trust and subverting the Constitution.

It concludes that Bush and Cheney, because of their conduct in office, warrant impeachment and trial, and removal from office. The resolution calls on the Pennsylvania legislature to submit the above charges to the U.S. House of Representatives and also calls on the Congress to immediately proceed with impeachment of the president and vice president.

1. I love fighting Dems! They're not ready to make nice with a pack of war criminals.

2. I love'em too, but given the political realities of this area,

having the Berks County Democratic Committee vote for impeachment in no way translates to the County Government (or populace) having voted for it.
