Impeach Cheney then Bush
We, the People of the United States of America, reject the Bush administration’s lies, attacks on Iraq, dangerous expansion of the President’s powers, neglect of public welfare, and corruption at the highest levels. We call on US House of Representatives to impeach and the US Senate to try Vice-President Cheney and President Bush on the following charges that:
* Dick Cheney corrupted the intelligence process to generate false evidence accusing Iraq of possessing chemical and nuclear weapons and of cooperating with Al Qaeda on 9/11 to justify a war.
* Dick Cheney committed a felony by exposing covert CIA operative Valerie Plame to punish her husband, Ambassador Joseph Wilson, for not supporting Cheney’s allegation that Iraq was seeking uranium in Africa.
* Dick Cheney exceeded his authority by threatening to attack Iran since the power to declare is reserved to Congress in the Constitution.
* George Bush lied to Congress to gain authority to launch a pre-emptive invasion and occupation of Iraq based on false charges about weapons of mass destruction and involvement in 9/11.
* George Bush betrayed our troops by sending them into an unnecessary war, without needed equipment, without a realistic strategy or exit plan, and without adequate health care for wounded soldiers.
* George Bush caused the death of tens of thousands of civilians, the ruin of city and countryside, and the unleashing of civil war in Iraq, a country that never attacked the US, in defiance of the UN charter.
* George Bush permitted the torture of prisoners of war in Abu Graib and Guantanamo Bay, in violation of the Geneva Convention.
* George Bush undermined the right to know what we are charged with if arrested, to have access to a lawyer, and to a speedy, fair, and public trial by creating the category “enemy combatant,” prisoners with no rights, and Guantanamo Bay, a prison with no law. He disappeared an unknown number of terrorist suspects, holding some without charge or access to counsel or courts and rendering some to other countries to be tortured.
* Dick Cheney and George Bush plotted to deliver obscene profits to defense contractors who contribute to Republican candidates by hiring civilian contractors for military functions, issuing no-bid cost-plus contracts in Iraq, and paying for shoddy equipment and non-existent or incomplete work. This has wasted tens of billions of dollars, endangered our troops, made a mockery of our promises of reconstruction in Iraq, starved US social programs, and cheated US taxpayers.
* George Bush ordered spying on US citizens and groups without a warrant from any court.
* George Bush undermined the Constitutional separation of powers with his extensive use of signing statements on legislation. He has stolen Congress’ power to make law and the Supreme Court’s power to interpret law.
* George Bush suppressed evidence about global warming and opposed laws and regulations to reduce America’s contribution to the problem.
* George Bush vacationed while people drowned during hurricane Katrina and has made rebuilding after the largest natural disaster in a century a low priority.
When “elected” officials hold themselves above the law, when their actions endanger public welfare and lead towards tyranny at home and chaos and destruction abroad, they have shown themselves unfit to lead and must be removed from office.
