| Description | In a speech on the House floor Thursday, Rep. Jim McDermott said Vice President Dick Cheney should resign or face impeachment.
McDermott had not been among members of Congress calling for impeachment of Cheney or President Bush. He said he will now sign on as a co-sponsor to H.R. 333, Rep. Dennis Kucinich's resolution — introduced in April — calling for Cheney's impeachment.
"For months I have believed that impeachment was a dire course of action," McDermott said. "Over these same months, I have seen the vice president repeatedly drive our nation into increasingly dire situations, in Iraq, in Iran, and within our own country as he tramples over the Constitution like it is a doormat." |
