The Knuckleheads of the Day award

Goes to the San Diego Democratic party. They have lost touch with reality, as can be seen by their motion asking for the impeachment of President Bush, Vice-President Cheney and Secretary of Defense Rumsfield. A cabinet member can be impeached?

Resolution Calling for Impeachment of President Bush, Vice President Cheney, and Defense Secretary Rumsfeld for High Crimes and Misdemeanors

WHEREAS the Downing Street Memo (official minutes of a 2002 meeting between British Prime Minister Tony Blair, members of British intelligence MI-6 and members of the Bush administration) reveals that Bush, Cheney, and Rumsfeld began planning and executing war on Iraq before seeking Congressional and UN approval, and

WHEREAS those minutes reveal that “intelligence and facts were being fixed around the policy” with full knowledge that no evidence of weapons of mass destruction in Iraq had been found, and given that President Bush, Cheney, and Rumsfeld lied to Congress and the American people to create false justification to launch war in Iraq, costing thousands of lives and harming America's reputation, and

WHEREAS new leaks of British documents provide further mounting evidence that the Administration lied or misled about “mushroom clouds”, “connections to 9/11,” and “war as a last resort,” as they sought United Nations, Congressional, and public approvals,

THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED that the San Diego Democratic Central Committee asks Congress to immediately begin impeachment proceedings against President Bush, Vice President Cheney, and Defense Secretary Rumsfeld, and

BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that the San Diego Democratic Central Committee calls on the California Democratic Central Committee to adopt this resolution and urge Congress to impeach President Bush, Vice President Cheney, and Defense Secretary Rumsfeld for high crimes and misdemeanors.

Adopted by the San Diego County Democratic Party Central Committee on 7.12.05
