Rep. Wexler: Update on Impeachment Movement
Edited on Tue Jan-15-08 02:45 PM by whereismyparty
Dear Friends,

This evening, I am taking the floor of the House of Representatives to strongly reassert my call for hearings on the Articles of Impeachment of Vice President Cheney previously introduced by Dennis Kucinich.

Please watch it on CSPAN – I should be taking the floor tonight after the last vote, between 7-9PM Eastern.

Tomorrow, I will deliver a letter to my colleagues on the Judiciary Committee, encouraging them to sign on to a letter in support of Cheney impeachment hearings to Chairman Conyers.

This is a critical point in the impeachment movement. Congress is very much aware of what we’re doing – thanks in part to your letters and calls – but there is much work to be done.

We must enforce the outstanding subpoenas and begin to question key witnesses. Impeachment will break through Executive Privilege and allow us to cut through the diversions and obstruction that has occurred these last months.

Over the next days, please take a moment to let your representative know your feelings about Impeachment and ask them to support our efforts. Please also call the media outlets and urge them to cover this movement.

In case you miss me tonight, tomorrow we will update you with a link to the video and more information on what has occurred. Please don’t forget to join the cause at www.WexlerWantsHearings.com.

Again – I thank you for your support in this important endeavor.

Congressman Robert Wexler

1. Wonder if Kooch will have a chance to comment on this tonight?
That is, if he's allowed in the debate and if they even ask him any questions.

2. If they let him there, he will say it.
He has developed a way of packing a 10 second allotment with a lot of needed truth.

I also expect him to call for single-payer Universal Healthcare and an end to the war in Iraq.
