Impeach!

Rep. Dennis Kucinich (D-OH), the former mayor of Cleveland who is seeking the 2008 Democratic nomination for president for the second time, has selected a date to introduce articles of impeachment against Vice President Dick Cheney.

That date would be April 25.

The senate in the northeastern US state of Vermont passed a resolution Friday calling on Congress to begin impeachment proceedings against President George W. Bush, senate officials said.

The largely symbolic move, which stands little chance of going much further, was approved by 16 votes to nine and followed a public rally this week in the state capital Montpelier calling for Bush and Vice President Dick Cheney to go.

"The neat thing about the Vermont legislature is that we listen to citizens," [Senate President Peter Shumlin] told the newspaper.

They have really good syrup, but it's just too cold in Vermont for me to consider moving.

I like how the article tells us where Vermont is, just in case we're under 40 and educated in the United States.

Besides the impeachment resolution, other business on the state legislature's agenda this week included "an act relating to home-fermented beverage competitions."

Of course, I could get a heavy coat.
