To Impeach or not to Impeach-That shouldn’t even be a question!

[SavetheUSA]

To anyone who has read the Constitution and and has any sort of need for justice, it has become blatatly obvious that the only way to uphold our Constitution and stop these criminals with sinister intentions is to Impeach Bush and Cheney immediately to stop them from committing any more atrocities, looting the treasury and prevent them from being in charge during any more national emergencies. We have been given a line of excuses as to why this hasn’t happened which goes something like this 1.We cannot impeach unless there is an investigation. 2. We cannot have an investigation unless we have a democratic majority.

First of all, Do we really need an investigation to impeach Bush over illegal wiretapping? We all know that even Bush knows what he has been doing is illegal when he stated “a wiretap requires a court order”. After this he went on national TV and declared that he had the authority to break the law and will continue to do so. Is an investigation really needed when Bush has openly admitted to breaking the law? If articles of impeachment were brought forth right now, an investigation would take place as part of the proceedings and the only logical conclusion would be to impeach Bush and Cheney. This would be the perfect opportuninty to see who is a patriot and who is a traitor before the next ‘election’.

1. All we need

Is the House. If we get it, we can launch investigation after investigation after investigation. If so done, more than enough information warranting impeachment will surely come out. These bastards have operated with impunity for six years now. There is a treasure trove just waiting to be accessed. God deliver the House to us for the sake of justice. I can't wait to bring these fucks down.

2. We better hurry because they're busy changing the laws

about the wiretaps. And shielding the bushies for what has happened. The whole republican party needs to be busted out of offices and sent home in shame. They have shit on America for the good of sucking up to gw. Rapture in DC.

3. dems are already starting to back away from the threat, it is being...

used by republicans very early as a means to prove that dems are just vindictive & blood thirsty...and yes...i know...there are no more vindictive & blood thirsty people in america than republicans themselves by & large, but that is the way they are playing that card, and they are playing it very early indeed.

i say get in there first. the first dozen orders of business may not even include impeachment...let it ride. call for some hearings, get some results and people on the record, and the rest will work itself out.

i think that when dems take over they will be so busy undoing the gordian, republican shit-knot that little other time will even be available imo

7. Does anyone wonder...

about this part...


"John Conyers has introduced a resolution for a committee to investigate impeachment over Iraq, avoiding the illegal wiretapping because ‘he had written it up before the wiretapping revelations”, but then just happened to introduce it right after the illegal wiretapping revelations. Many people still believe that John Conyers is pursuing impeachment over illegal wiretapping but that is not the case. He is now planning to take Bush to court to get him to stop illegal wiretapping, but he is not planning on holding him accountable for it."

Did anyone notice the ad on DU for a while...about the LISTEN act? they admit that Bush is illegally wiretapping so Conyers and Harman are trying to pass a law to make Bush follow the law? That makes NO sense! Impeach him now dammit!

9. well being a non violent type

I'll take a good old fashioned impeachment.

George W Bush is the exact reason our founders wrote of impeachment- he is the poster boy of corruption!

10. more from the blog...

Nancy Pelosi who ‘leads’ the Democrats in the House isn’t really interested in impeachment

“We want oversight and checks and balances,'’ Pelosi spokesman Brendan Daly said she told the caucus. “That certainly isn’t being done in this Congress (under Republican control). Impeachment was never her interest.'’….In a memo sent to supporters this week, Pelosi stressed her priorities in the new Congress if Democrats win — raising the minimum wage, implementing all recommendations of the Sept. 11 commission, cutting subsidies for oil companies, reducing student loan rates and making prescription drugs more affordable.

we need more people in congress like this...
Karen Marie Otter running for California district 52…
I am not running for office to make money nor am I running for office to obtain power. I am running for office to make a difference.

If the Republicans continue to refuse to clean their house, we must give the Democrats a majority in the House of Representatives so it can begin the process to demand answers from President Bush. Yes, indeed, I mean impeachment. The People cannot further afford the incompetence of this Administration and must demand action of the Congress.

The people of our nation must now stand up and say, “No more!” I will stand up for all of us whose hearts are heavy with sorrow over where our country is headed.
