Wow. Today in Congress, the Republicans were voting in favor of impeaching Cheney & the Democrats were the ones doing everything they could to keep the articles in commitee.

House Democrats on Tuesday beat back a Republican attempt to force them to vote on a divisive resolution to impeach Vice President Dick Cheney for “fabricating a threat of Iraqi weapons of mass destruction” to justify the war in Iraq.

Seriously, here’s yet another example of just how pathetic the Democrats have become. They are not an opposition party, people.

“Impeachment is not on our agenda,” said House Majority Leader Steny Hoyer (D-Md.)

This basically tells Dubya & Co. that they can do anything they want & the Democrats will let them get away with it: lie, cheat, steal, you name it.

The resolution said that Cheney, “in violation of his constitutional oath to faithfully execute the office of vice president,” had “purposely manipulated the intelligence process to deceive the citizens and Congress of the United States by fabricating a threat of Iraqi weapons of mass destruction to justify the use of the U.S. Armed Forces against the nation of Iraq in a manner damaging to our national security interests.”

And the Democrats were voting against it. I just hope they don’t act surprised when Cheney starts bombing Iran.

Here’s the whole story.
