Instead of Impeachment--How about calls for a Chimp-Cheney resignation.

[European Socialist]

That would get the Democrats some media coverage.

1. Not a bad idea

With Frist in charge of the Senate and Hastert-Delay in charge of the House, impeachment is impossible.

By the way, I saw a bumper sticker that said Reagan: We need you now more than ever. Of course, this is stupid, but it says to me that people that should be in Bush's corner like this ignorant person are turning to other Repub figures. Now we Dems have to destroy the whole Repub brand, not just Bush.

2. The word RESIGN has a sweet sound to me!

[HEyHEY]

3. If you did that and kept up on it and registered the organzation

It could be effective in many ways

[Old_Fart]

4. How about a permanent vacation?

5. remember Nixon

the only reason he resigned was because he knew he was about to be impeached and probably tried and convicted for obstruction of justice. If we don't continue to call for investigation and impeachment, nothing will happen. Asking for resignation doesn't seem to imply that Bush should be held accountable for his crimes. And if he's not a criminal, why resign?

6. Please, whatever we can do

to get the message out that the American People want to be "We The People" Again!

[Independent_Liberal]

7. I agree...

We must do everything we can.

[European Socialist]

9. Because we might not survive 3 more years of terrible leadership....

whether criminal or not.

[AntiCoup2K4]

8. Let's not forget the Hastert factor....

I believe Hastert is about to be indicted for something himself, isn't he?

Imagine if he gets thrown out of office, and just before Chimp & Dick resign, the Speaker of the House position goes to.......


pResident BugBoy?? The horror....the horror :scared:

[European Socialist]

10. Where's Gerald Ford when you need him?

[wli]

14. isn't the House of DeLay falling, too?

ISTR the Abramoff affair creeping up on him.

[Trillo]

11. "I've got a life to live"

Reportedly he* did say, "I think it's also important for me to go on with my life" and "I've got a life to live".

Is resignation what he was asking for? Why not just sign the papers of resignation? Perhaps he*s thinking its a negotiation? Wants something in return?

[TankLV]

12. How about callling for their ... NEVERMIND!

Can't say what I would really like to wish or call for.

[youngred]

13. since impeachement is highly unlikely, yes

but these guys will stonewall their delusion long enough to make it to 2008 I'm afraid.

[wli]

15. what is the chain of succession?

How many neocons have to be prosecuted and convicted before a Democrat ends up as a successor?

[Hippo_Tron]

16. You have to go to the Secretary of Transportation, Norman Mineta

Mineta served the post under Clinton and Bush kept him on.

[wli]

18. is there a list anywhere?

Thanks.

[Hippo_Tron]

19. Presidential succession goes like this...

Vice President

Speaker of the House

President Pro Tem of the Senate

Secretary of State

And then all of the other cabinet members in the order in which their department was created.

Norman Mineta is the only Democrat in Bush's cabinet.

[sakabatou]

17. Resign is good but...

We'd still like to see Chimpy in 'cuffs.

[European Socialist]

26. I think Chimpy in Crawford will be the best we can do.

[gulliver]

20. That's a good idea. n/t

[Mass]

21. Dennis Hastert president? Why would we call for that!

[European Socialist]

25. Not calling for it-but thats where it would land.

It would better than Chimp-Cheney-but not much.

[TheCentepedeShoes]

22. I actually

sent a letter to Nixon asking for his resignation. That worked, maybe I should try it again. :shrug:

On edit and with more brain cell on line: back then, we had Ford as the VP, now what CHENY! What if that's been the plan all along?

[lynne]

23. "President Cheney" sounds good to you, huh???

:crazy:

[European Socialist]

24. NO, my post calls for double resignation.

[Imagevision]

27. I'll stick for impeachment for war crimes which is ligit!!!

[Independent_Liberal]

28. Line of succession if anyone is interested...
