Jim Moran Wants Your Views on Impeachment

Congressman Jim Moran, who represents the Arlington-Alexandria area in Northern Virginia, is asking his constituents what to do about articles of impeachment against VP Cheney that have been referred to the Judiciary Committee. Below is a survey he sent out in his most recent newsletter. Apparently both Bush Derangement Syndrome and its more hysterical form, the Cheney Variant are still spreading like wild fire through the halls of Congress.

Dear dcpoliticsnews,

Last week, the House voted to send articles of impeachment against Vice President Cheney to the Judiciary Committee for hearings and more thorough consideration of this issue.

I would appreciate it if you would fill out the survey below and better inform me on how you think Congress should approach this issue.

Sincerely,


James P. Moran

Surveying Your Views on Impeachment

Which one of these four statements do you agree with about Vice President Cheney:

Vice President Cheney has abused his powers as Vice President which rise to the level of impeachable offenses under the Constitution, and he should be impeached and removed from office.

Vice President Cheney has abused his powers as Vice President which rise to the level of impeachable offenses under the Constitution, but he should not be impeached.

Vice President Cheney has abused his powers as Vice President, but the abuses are not serious enough to warrant impeachment under the Constitution.

Vice President Cheney has not abused his powers as Vice President.

Regardless of whether or not you believe the Vice President should be impeached, do you think the Judiciary Committee should begin hearings to look at the evidence of possible impeachable offenses?

Yes, I think the Judiciary Committee should begin impeachment hearings.

No, I think impeachment hearings would be a waste of time and a distraction from more important issues Congress should address.
