Momentum growing for impeachment

There are now 34 members of Congress who have signed on to the HR 333, a bill proposing articles of impeachment against Vice President Dick Cheney. What was once viewed as a far-out idea is now gaining support and serious consideration by many more than the 34 who have officially signed on as co-sponsors.

From AfterDowningStreet:
Congresswoman Tammy Baldwin (D., Wisconsin) and Congressman Donald Payne (D., N.J.) have signed on as cosponsors of H. Res. 333, a bill proposing articles of impeachment against Vice President Dick Cheney, according to Congressman Dennis Kucinich's office. Kucinich is the original sponsor of the bill. Baldwin is the fourth member of the House Judiciary Committee to have added her name to the bill. A fifth Judiciary Committee member, Steve Cohen, has thus far signed on only to a bill proposing the impeachment of Attorney General Alberto Gonzales.
