David Swanson published this past Tuesday a great strategy piece on the call to impeach Vice-President Cheney in Impeach Cheney First | ImpeachPAC [2]
We should impeach Vice President Dick Cheney first, and President George Bush immediately thereafter. This idea is not original with me. It's been seen on bumper stickers for quite some time. My attention has been called to it by the fact that Congresswoman and Judiciary Committee Member Maxine Waters is talking about it. See below.
I'm persuaded of the value of this approach for several reasons. Among activists who very much want impeachment, one can hear a long list of fears and concerns about how things might go wrong, how impeachment could help Republicans who come around and back it, how impeachment could take energy away from elections, etc. But by far the most common of the nonsensical fears one hears is this one: "Impeaching Bush would give us Cheney, who is worse."
By proposing to impeach Cheney first, we eliminate this fear.
I did not write a whole article about this back in October of 2005 because I was still hot and bothered by my imaginary boyfriend's call for the impeachment of George Bush [3]. I was so wetted by Viggo Mortensen's political sexy-beast sweet-talk [4] (because, you know, he did that only for me and nobody else), that there is only a quick comment of mine making reference to Cheney first. Some smelling salts, a little photoshopping and a CafePress store [5] later and,
voila!

So be a good Patriot and get your IMPEACH CHENEY FIRST gear --all the while contributing to culturekitchen's caffeine and web hosting expenses.
