Kucinich on Bush, Cheney: "Don't Wait, Impeach Them Now!" [VIDEO]

The Democrats' debate in Las Vegas has been largely viewed as a victory for Hillary Clinton and a loss for CNN. Wolf Blitzer managed to prove yet again how far his network has fallen in terms of substance. Diamonds or pearls anyone? Anyway, there were few "great" moments in this debate. But I would argue that this is one.
Dennis Kucinich never gets enough credit and is far too often marginalized at these debates, with laughs generated at his expense with questions about UFOs, but this question he hit out of the park. His integrity and honesty cuts like a knife here. For instance when Blitzer mentions that Kucinich was one of the only congressmen voted against the Patriot Act, he says, "That's because I read it." Check it out the clip to your right to see what I mean.
