1. I don't subscribe to this idea that we ought to leave the bastard alone
because it's only 18 months more, & there isn't enough time, so forget it. I say we roast the bastard in a big ass trial, tar & feather him, his shitty wife & mr & mrs cheney & then "move on".

9. I'm ready but there's too much time to impeach now...
Impeachment now gives the GOP recovery time before the election. Short attention span theater and all that.

4. It is vital for world peace to impeach
Bush, Cheney, et. al - before they start a war with Iran and/or WWIII.

5. Cheney's Actions Put Impeachment on the Table
Cheney's Actions Put Impeachment on the Table

The Nation -- Four more members of the U.S. House signed on this week as cosponsors of H. Res. 333, the measure that outlines articles of impeachment against Vice President Dick Cheney for actively and systematically seeking to deceive citizens and Congress about an alleged threat of Iraqi weapons of mass destruction and an alleged relationship between Iraq and al Qaeda and for openly threatening aggression against Iran.

Congressman Bob Filner, the chair of the House Committee on Veterans' Affairs, added his name, along with another veteran Democratic representative from California, Sam Farr.

The additional cosponsorships from Washington Democrat Jim McDermott, a Vietnam-era veteran who has been one of the House's sharpest critics of the war in Iraq, and Virginia Democrat James Moran bring the number of supporters for the articles to 14, including sponsor Dennis Kucinich, D-Ohio.

---------

That's an increasingly popular sentiment among Congressional Democrats, who are breaking with Pelosi to speak the "i" word.

It is an even more popular sentiment among the American people.

According to recent polling by the American Research Group, 54 percent of Americans want Cheney impeached. Among Democrats, that number rises to 76 percent. A majority of self-described independents back action to hold the vice president to account, as do a striking 17 percent of Republicans. With conservatives such as former Reagan administration lawyer Bruce Fein coming out strongly for Cheney's impeachment, the numbers of Republicans who are pulling for accountability is likely to grow.

7. This will probably be the only way to keep from attacking Iran.
And that is just the most urgent of many many legitimate reasons not to let this cabal run riot for the rest of the term.
