Impeachment update

MANIFESTO

It took Dennis Kucinich nearly five hours Monday night to read his 35 articles of impeachment against the Decider in Chief into the record. Alas, the effort has come to naught.

The House has voted to send articles of impeachment against President Bush to a committee that is not likely to hold hearings before the end of his term.

By 251-166, House members dispatched the measure to [the House Judiciary Committee] on Wednesday—a procedure often used to kill legislation.

But, damn, it was good television.
