The Cotati City Council is the third in Sonoma County to weigh in on impeachment for President George W. Bush and Vice President Dick Cheney.
The council voted 3-2 Wednesday night to approve a resolution calling for impeachment proceedings against the nation’s two top officials.
Voting “yes” were Cotati Mayor Pat Gilardi, Councilwoman Janet Orchard and Councilman John Guardino.
The “nay” votes were cast by Councilwoman Patty Minnis and Councilman Geoff Fox.
City officials in both Sebastopol and Santa Rosa have passed resolutions supporting impeachment of the nation’s top two officials.
They are among what Progressive Democrats of Sonoma County say are more than 90 U.S. cities to have done so.
The resolution votes will be recorded in the Congressional Record and sent to the House Judiciary Committee.
I read some of the comments on the article. Some of them commented that it is too little too late for this and that they will be out of office in 6 months. Yes, that is true. However, if you don't stand up for your country, who will? Most people react when something has been taken from them that they took for granted. Bush and Cheney may not be impeached and held accountable but the lawmaker who didn't them impeach will be held accoutable for their actions. their jobs are on the line. Rest assured Bush and Cheney will be held for their crimes but I think it will be overseas than in the U.S. when they are private citizens.
