Kucinich Introduces Articles of Impeachment

Raw Story reports that Rep. Dennis Kucinich is presenting 35 articles of impeachment in the House this evening:
The House is not in order," said Kucinich to Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-CA), upon which Pelosi pounded her gavel.

"Resolved," Kucinich then began, "that President George W. Bush be impeached for high crimes and misdemeanors, and that the following articles of impeachment be exhibited to the United States Senate. ...

"In his conduct while President of the United States, George W. Bush, in violation of his constitutional oath to faithfully execute the office of president of the United States, and to the best of his ability preserve, protect and defend the Constitution of the United States, and in violation of his constitutional duty to take care that the laws be faithfully executed, has committed the following abuses of power..."
First up?
Article 1 - Creating a secret propaganda campaign to manufacture a false case for war against Iraq.
That's as good a place to start as any.

UPDATE: By way of AfterDowingStreet.org, we get Kucinich's full document covering all 35 articles.
