Congressman Robert Wexler
Previously Aired On: Tuesday, January 23 - Listen to the Show!
Robert I. Wexler is an American politician from the U.S. state of Florida. He has served as a Democratic member of the U.S. House of Representatives since 1997, representing Florida’s 19th congressional district.
In an e-mail to supporters on November 7, 2007, Representative Robert Wexler, a member of the House Judiciary Committee, stated about H.R. 333:
“I will urge the Judiciary Committee to schedule impeachment hearings immediately and not let this issue languish as it has over the last six months.
Only through hearings can we begin to correct the abuses of Dick Cheney and the Bush Administration; and, if it is determined in these hearings that Vice President Cheney has committed High Crimes and Misdemeanors, he should be impeached and removed from office. ”
In mid December of 2007, Congressman Wexler launched a website (Wexlerwantshearings.com) to promote his effort for impeachment hearings. The site included a You Tube video where he explained his position and a petition for like-minded people to sign. Wexler set a goal of getting 50,000 Americans to join his cause. In just two weeks, over 160,000 people signed the petition and over 70,000 people watched his You Tube video.
Please add me to your e-mail list. I desperately want to remain informed. Many many Thanks for airing Wexler’s House announcement–all informed Americans would agree if they have any critical thinking skills. Wexler is a true statesman and American Hero!

It’s five months later; any progress? Hearings need to be held on Bush and Cheney’s crimes; impeachment is in order. Are Americans so mind-controlled and corrupted that nothing can be done? I’ve got evidence of a criminal scam by the Carlyle Group that far outweighs anything BCCI did. I’ll submit this at hearings. The conflict of interest in Bush, Sr. and other politicians who work as consultants for Carlyle, now profiting on the pursuit of war by the U.S. is mind-boggling. How entire countries and people, including U.S. citizens, are being cheated of their money by these ministers of high finance provides a case stronger than the Watergate Papers.
