January 18, 2008 (LPAC)-- Florida Democrat, Rep. Robert Wexler, gave a short, impassioned speech on the floor of the House on January 15. "In this time, at this moment, Congress must stand for the truth. If we fail to act, history may well judge us complicit in the alleged crimes of Vice President Cheney...In 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."

Wexler held up a thick packet containing the names of almost 189,000 Americans that responded quickly to his call for support of hearings on Congressman Kucinich's impeachment resolution. He is publishing a few thousand names into the Congressional Record every day over the coming months, and has sent a letter to Judiciary Committee Chairman John Conyers, praising his work on oversight of balance of powers, and asking Conyers to "hold a sober investigation and let the facts determine the outcome."

He also denounced the excuses that came from Nazi Rohatyn's stooge, Nancy Pelosi, who later, at a press conference on Jan. 17 acknowledged that she is under enormous pressure for protecting Dick.

"Members of your caucus have accused you of silence and denial...in [not] having impeachment hearings concerning Vice President Dick Cheney." Why not "have hearings and see whether or not there were impeachable crimes...?" a reporter asked.

After waning on about the legislative stimulation that has given the Democratic Congress a 10% approval rating, Pelosi's screws loosened: "And you're right.
