Dennis Kucinich has taken a meaningful forward step that is essential for the preservation of democracy and world stability.  Kucinich today introduced articles of impeachment against Vice President Dick Cheney.

When Kucinich was interviewed by Wolf Blitzer of CNN he was asked whether this step might be a mistake since "we are at war," his response was directly on point.  Kucinich told Blitzer that we went to war based on a series of lies.  These lies were repeatedly propagated by Cheney and Bush.

For those wondering whether George W. Bush rather than Cheney should have been singled out, should this vital step gain the kind of grassroots support that it deserves then it is only a question of time before the chief executive, in name at any rate, is singled out in the same fashion.

A key point raised by Kucinich is Cheney's ongoing effort to instigate a war against Iran, which he stated violated Article 6 of the U.S. Constitution.
