#1 Multiple Articles Of Impeachment Being Read.

Post by SirNitram »

No article. It's live on C-Span and their website. Original reports said 15 articles being read into record, each including the evidence. Kucinich is reading them all, in order, without stopping. It's closing in on the two hours... And he's now on Article 18!

Tev: You're happy. You're Plotting. You're Evil.
Me: Evil is so inappropriate. I'm ruthless.
Tev: You're turning me on.

Wow, I just turned on my TV, and he's still going. Looks like #24 now.

Ended up beaing 35 articles.

http://www.belfasttelegraph.co.uk/news/ ... 786591.ece

It lists the individual articles and what they mean, plus shows part of a video with him talking about it.

In the end it will most likely come to be just another Kucinich rant.

Plus, it is a bit late to be trying to impeach him now. He is pretty much headed towards the finish line here.

So, unless he can get a whole slew of people on board quickly and get this done tomorrow, there is really no point. The Democrats will not go after him once he is out of office because it would look very dodgy.

Odds are it'll die in the Senate via Libermann to the head. That said, I saw 10 in the list that a half way objective person would have to admit deserved fair hearing.
