35 Articles of Impeachment

Something that showed up in my RSS lists is an article about the 35 Articles of Impeachment of George W. Bush. There's a 65 page public PDF released that outlines the articles of impeachment (posted below), and lists supporting evidence.

For the most part it just outlines all the things we already know, but there are actually a couple items that I wasn't familiar with.

This document was introduced by Congressman Dennis J. Kucinich of Ohio, who last year introduced a similar document against Vice President Dick Cheney.

What's interesting, although not surprising, is that there's really not been much in the way of media coverage about this. This is likely because it's something that will never go anywhere.

Still, this is the sort of thing that really speaks to this administration. The simple fact is that George W. Bush is quite literally the worst president in American history. I try not to talk too much about politics, simply because that simple unspoken rule, however, I just thought this was something worth mentioning.

The mixture of reporting has been interesting:

USA Today, Reuters, CBS News, UPI, and The Associated Press.

For the most part, all the reporting is hardly more than blurbs, footnotes on a story that seems like it's going nowhere. I do, however, enjoy the url for Reuter's story, which includes "/middleeastCrisis/".

Here's the entire document, which doesn't seem to miss anything:
