From NewsMax:
The Republican Party sees nothing funny about Sen. John F. Kerry's crack that President Bush should be impeached.
If Democrats take back the House in 2006, there would be a "solid case" to bring articles of impeachment against Bush for "misleading" the country about prewar intelligence, the National Journal's Hotline quoted Kerry as saying.
Kerry spoke Wednesday night at a holiday party for those who worked on his losing 2004 presidential campaign. He gave a short speech at a Washington bar.
Hotline said several of the 100 Democrats who attended the party quoted Kerry as advocating President Bush's impeachment.
Kerry's communications director David Wade later said his boss was joking, but Republicans are not laughing.
"With his impeachment advocacy last night, John Kerry once again showed how out of touch he is with American people and how in step he is with the far left fringes of the Democrat party," said RNC Communications Director Brian Jones in a statement.
"For one of the leaders of the Democrat party to begin a push for presidential impeachment, in seriousness or jest, on the eve of the Iraq elections is both foolish and shortsighted."
