Howie Hawkins will call for the impeachment of Vice President Dick Cheney at the Community Speak Out and then participate in the Rally for Liberty outside the Utica Hotel where Cheney will be speaking.
"Cheney should be impeached along with Bush for lying and lawbreaking. There are four solid reasons for impeachment: warrantless surveillance, misleading Congress on the reasons for the Iraq war, violating laws against torture, and subverting the Constitution's separation of powers," said Hawkins.
Public support for impeachment of Bush and Cheney is growing. A recent poll by Zogby International asked people what would restore their trust in government. The number one response was "personnel changes/impeachment proceedings." Numerous other national polls have found strong support for impeachment. Polls by Ipsos, Zogby, and American Research Group have found support for impeachment between 43% and 53% overall.
