DK said he's going after Bush too.. I don't think he should wait.

Draw up the articles for Bush and get it going by next week. There's so much overlap in their crimes that it seems pointless to wait. Am I missing something here?

1. So once they are impeached, who will be president and vice president?

2. ...the House Speaker first and the President Pro Tempore second.

Current Act (1947)

Provisions of the Act

Following World War II and the death of President Roosevelt, President Truman lobbied for a revision of the law, and ultimately the current act was passed.

The new law restored the Congressional officers to places directly after the Vice President, but switched their order from the 1792 Act - placing the House Speaker first and the President Pro Tempore second. The Cabinet officers then followed, again in the order in which their respective departments were created with one exception: the Secretary of Defense (a department created in 1947 following a merger of the Departments of War and Navy) was placed fifth in the overall order, directly after the Secretary of the Treasury. This placed the Defense Department in the place that would have been held by the Department of War, its predecessor.
