"In brief, we have found that there is substantial evidence the President, the Vice-President and other high ranking members of the Bush Administration misled Congress and the American people regarding the decision to go to war in Iraq; misstated and manipulated intelligence information regarding the justification for such war; countenanced torture and cruel, inhuman and degrading treatment in Iraq; and permitted inappropriate retaliation against critics of their Administration. There is at least a prima facie case that these actions that federal laws have been violated - from false statements to Congress to retaliating against Administration critics," Rep. Conyers said in a press release on 12/20/05.

Editor's note: Yesterday's APN Dispatch contained an inadvertant substantive error in its subtitle. As noted in our full length articles on H. Res 635, the bill supports an investigation looking into the grounds of impeachment, not impeachment itself.
