/PanARMENIAN.Net/ Democrat Dennis Kucinich introduced a 35-count
resolution to impeach U.S. President George W. Bush, claiming that
the president set out to deceive the nation, and violated his oath
of office with the Iraq war.

Addressing the House of Representatives on Monday evening, the
Ohio congressman and former presidential candidate accused the
administration of a number of offenses, including lying to Congress
and the public about its reasons for the 2003 invasion of Iraq.

He said Bush "fraudulently" justified the war on Iraq and misled "the
American people and members of Congress to believe Iraq possessed
weapons of mass destruction so as to manufacture a false case for war."

"President George W. Bush, by such conduct, is guilty of an impeachable
offense warranting removal from office," Kucinich said.

House Speaker Nancy Pelosi said Congress would not pursue the
impeachment of Bush saying it was "off the table," RIA Novosti reports.

Last time impeachment process was launched against President Bill
Clinton in 2000 over the Lewinski case.

Clinton was accused of sexual harassment and abuse of power. However,
he succeeded to avoid impeachment.
