CBS 58, Michele McCormack — Milwaukee based group says Clinton and Obama can still hold Bush administration accountable
\nMILWAUKEE-Democrats attending the Founder’s Day Gala Saturday night got an earful as they walked up to the Midwest Airlines Center.<\/p>\n
The Milwaukee Impeachment Committee staged a vocal demonstration demanding that the impeachment of President Bush and Vice President Cheney be part of the national Democratic platform.<\/p>\n
The group believes the President and Vice President abused their power when entering the U.S. into the war in Iraq.<\/p>\n
Organizer Debbie Metke says protestors were Democrats, Republicans and Green Party members.<\/p>\n
The group also staged a protest outside Repubican John McCain’s Milwaukee appearance Friday night.<\/p>\n
In a statement the committee wrote:<\/p>\n
“Congress should pursue the accountability of elected officials, and Hillary Clinton and Barack Obama as members of Congress should include this issue in their campaigns and in the national Democratric platform.<\/p>\n
Wisconsin is an appropriate state to make this demand since its state Democratic Party was the first to put impeachments in its 2006 platform, and two of our Congressional Represenatatives, Tammy Baldwin and Gwen Moore have signed H. Res. 333 calling for Cheney’s impeachment and Rep. Wexler’s letter calling for impeachment hearings by the House Judiciary Committee.”<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"author":8,"featured_media":12376,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_kad_post_transparent":"","_kad_post_title":"","_kad_post_layout":"","_kad_post_sidebar_id":"","_kad_post_content_style":"","_kad_post_vertical_padding":"","_kad_post_feature":"","_kad_post_feature_position":"","_kad_post_header":false,"_kad_post_footer":false,"_kad_post_classname":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[122,2,14,29],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-4851","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-bush_era","category-impeachment-events","category-republicans-for-impeachment","category-wisconsin"],"yoast_head":"\n
