The charges against the Bush administration really are too serious to ignore, as Congressman Robert Wexler states.

While the phrase "worse than Watergate" is catching on in the public "mind" in the US, the charges against Dick Cheney include collusion in torture and other war crimes in the global mind. He is viewed as an architect in an illegal war.

The momentum for impeachment is evidenced by the collection of 200,000+ signatures on Wexler's website calling for impeachment hearings.

Internal cries for impeachment proceedings have fallen on the "deaf ears" of the US Congress for years. Yet many know the required Constitutional and international legal remedy for Bush Administration abuses must start with impeachment.

The inaction to stop the war and to continually fund the illegal war - a genocidal war - by US Congress have left global people stunned.

Our call for proper steps to be taken to restore international human rights has been left largely to the court proceedings - proceedings that have been left out of the US mainstream media.

Previously, no impeachment petition was available for signatures of NON US citizens. That's now been remedied!! And these signatures are verfiable which will give them more "weight".

Millions, maybe BILLIONS, of global people want to end the US war crimes and see Guantanomo shut down. Many have been exposed to the pictures of the torture and abuse at Abu Ghraib prison. They know that abuse goes on daily in a vast archipalago of "dark sites" sponsored by the US government.

Pinky's video on the legality or illegality of the Iraq war has been viewed over 800,000 times on you tube!!

This is a clear indiction that global people want a return to the rule of law and an end to the human rights abuses that have ensued.
