For those who've been calling for Impeachment since the DSM
Raise your hand. It's good to see so much discussion of Impeachment now, even reaching the MSM with bush's recent begging of Congress to legalize torture. And Conyers just recently listed out all the laws the bush admin has broken. If the Democrats get control of the Congress again, I think we'll see some resignations soon after...

9. My very first post on a political forum!
I'm a newcomer by some standards.



Feb 26th 2003

"Impeach Bush"

Evidently there is a law that requires air force fighters to be launched within one hour of a highjacked airliner. Bush knew while he was in the elementary school class (which is where he belongs), and did nothing until one hour and twenty minutes. He knew. He did nothing. Thousands of innocent people died because of it. He should be impeached. I'm only repeating what I heard during an interview with Gore Vidal, and I believe he has his facts correct.

20. yes, yes, the moment he sat there and then quaked in his boots while
addressing school children and teachers, instead of making a beeline for the military advisers. then when I heard he was headed for the SAC underground I knew he was a big coward.

11. Impeachment is too kind a punishment for their acts of treason
Edited on Mon Sep-18-06 11:27 AM by bushmeat
Article Three of the United States Constitution - Section 3: Treason against the United States, shall consist only in levying War against them, or in adhering to their Enemies, giving them Aid and Comfort. No Person shall be convicted of Treason unless on the Testimony of two Witnesses to the same overt Act, or on Confession in open Court.
The Congress shall have power to declare the Punishment of Treason, but no Attainder of Treason shall work Corruption of Blood, or Forfeiture except during the Life of the Person attainted.

12. an active impeachment movement emboldens *s enemies
state and local impeachment resolutions, and referenda campaigns let the world know that we the people want to rid ourselves of this monster. educating citizens about the possibles for impeachment on the local level will energize progressives to get out there and push legislators. this is not the clinton impeachment- a beltway coup. this is a peoples movement.
hopefully, they can hear us over there in "old europe" and they will stand up to them on iran. and maybe even get a few generals to finally say hell no. their resistance on the torture law might be a sign of cracks in the wall. we must let everyone know these monsters must go. we must push for this on every available lever.
so, sing the petition for the illinois hjr125 in my sig, will ya.

17. Leaping up and down waving both hands...
I want everyone even vaguely related to the Bush admin to be impeached, then tried, then either executed or put in jail until they die as a warning to the next hundred generations that we won't accept this kind of behavior, and will deal with it appropriately.

19. Can I raise my hand?
I've been calling for impeachment since before the DSM. Or just trowing the White House squatter out on the White House lawn with his belongings and telling him to walk back to Crawford.

It was blatantly obvious to any one paying attention and willing to see what was before him that Bush and his aides were lying about Iraq and that lying in order to gain support for what was really a colonial war of aggression is a war crime on its face.

The DSM was only further evidence of the regime's guilt. It was already proved beyond a reasonable doubt.

I'll never forget how that one line jumped off the screen at me. I don't think I need to tell anyone which line I'm talking about.
