On Tuesday night, Rep. Robert Wexler (D-FL) took to the House floor to urge the House Judiciary Committee to begin impeachment hearings into Vice President Cheney for βhigh crimes and misdemeanors.β Wexler, who has already acquired nearly 190,000 supporters through his website, explained his next steps:
History demands that we take action, because the case against Vice President Cheney is far stronger than the illegality surrounding Watergate.
βIn the history of our nation, we have never encountered a moment where the actions of a President or a Vice President have more strongly demanded the use of the power of impeachment,β Wexler said last Tuesday.
