Rep. Robert Wexler (D-FL) on Friday launched a new Web site, WexlerWantsHearings.com to advance his call to impeach Cheney. The site hosts an op-ed article censored by the nation's major newspapers and outlines the case for impeaching Cheney.

"The truth is the mainstream media have no interest in this issue," Wexler said Friday.

"They have bought into the notion that impeachment hearings are outside the bounds of what the congress ought to be doing,"

Well, I really don't see how the "mainstream" media came to the conclusion that "impeachment hearings are outside the bounds of what the congress ought to be doing"?

If Congress doesn't have hearings to find out IF Cheney should be impeached, then who should?

Isn't it Congress's job to make sure nothing illegal, unconstitutional, or immoral happens in the executive branch and to keep the Executive Branch of government in check.

That is part of their job in Congress!

What Rep. Robert Wexler (D-FL) wants to start impeacment hearings against Cheney for is "manipulating intelligence in the run-up to the Iraq war, obstructing federal investigations, and conspiring to expose the identity of covert CIA agent Valerie Plame.

President Clinton had to go through impeachment hearings because he lied about an "affair(?)"/"encounter(?)" with an intern!

Aren't these allegations against Cheney at least worthy of having an impeachment hearing and finding out if he did or did not do anything wrong and "worthy" of impeachment?

Rep. Robert Wexler has set up a website (wexlerwantshearings.com) where people who think that there should at least be a hearing to impeach Cheney can sign a petition, the web address will be the first LINK in the ADDITIONAL NEWS LINKS in the post above..

What could it hurt to just clear the air and find out if Cheney did or didn't do anything wrong?
