Via the SF Chronicle:
The famously liberal city of Berkeley is expected to become the first in the nation to put forth a ballot measure calling for the impeachment of President Bush and Vice President Dick Cheney.
The City Council will decide tonight whether to put the measure on the Nov. 7 ballot, at a cost of about $10,000. The measure, if approved, would create a task force to monitor the president and vice president, who backers of the initiative say should be impeached because of the Iraq war, federal wiretapping and other issues.
Dozens of cities, including San Francisco and Oakland, have approved resolutions advocating impeachment, but Berkeley could be the first to let voters decide.
The initiative by the city’s Peace and Justice Commission and backed by Mayor Tom Bates, first arose in 2004 but never made it past the City Council because some thought it distracted from the presidential election.
Ah, gotta laugh at that left coast moonbattery! To be fair, though, this kind of nuttiness is not confined to the left coast. Back in early May, the Chapel Hill, NC town council voted in favor of impeachment of the President in a purely symbolic vote. It symbolized something alright.

Since we are finding huge amounts of WMDs in Iraq, the Far Left has to impeach Bush before we find any more. Destroy the evidence!
What a bunch of losers. Berkeley should focus on their own problems. It’s a filthy crime-ridden cesspool. Take a look at Berkeley via this website.
I hereby declare the City of Berkely to be Null and Void.
Now can we just ignore the idjits from now on?
Wait… wait… this is too rich.
They want to spend $10,000 dollars of other people’s money so that they can make a committee to monitor something they have absolutely no control over whatsoever?
They outright openly admit that they will waste tons of cash on something completely pointless, and none of the Libs seem to realize and/or have a problem with it?
Color me not surprised.
I also like the little quip at the end about how ‘dozens of cities’ have passed such a resolution. What’re the odds that every single one of them is in California?
I’ll give you a symbol…..
Ryan, Thanks for the website. It showed that Berkeley crime rate is 2 x higher than the average city in the U.S.
Berkeley city council should be IMPEACHED it looks to me for the crime against humanity in that city allowing the residents to be terrorized by criminals.
Have these dim bulbs ever even read the constitution? They want to spend $10K on a committee that has absolutely no standing to do squat?
They, collectively, should lease out the unused space between their ears and generate a little revenue to offset this silly waste of taxpayer lucre.
I was gonna get on Berkeley’s twice the US average crime rate too, until I looked up my city, of Tempe, AZ. Found out Tempe’s crime rate rivals that of Berkeley.
Being that I live in AZ, I’m sure most can deduce why this is, however, that’s besides the point, and another topic altogether. 
But, back to Berkeley’s spending of taxpayer monies to accomplish absolutely nothing, it seems that some enterprising right-thinking lawyer or group could bring suit against the City Council for flagrant waste of financial resources.
Remember, too, that before the smoke even cleared at the WTC site in 9/2001, the folks in Berkeley were already chortling gleefully that America had deserved it.
These are people who are living in some scary leftist parallel universe the rest of us, thankfully, know nothing about.
