Do-It-Yourself Impeachment... jodinmorey September 15 2006, 10:34:45 UTC
Impeach Bush yourself! No Joke.
This is much more than just a petition.

There's a little known and rarely used clause of the "Jefferson Manual" in the rules for the House of Representatives which sets forth the various ways in which a president can be impeached. Only the House Judiciary Committee puts together the Articles of Impeachment, but before that happens, someone has to initiate the process.

That's where we come in. In addition to the State-by-State method, one of the ways to get impeachment going is for individual citizens like you and me to submit a memorial. ImpeachforPeace.org, part of the movement to impeach the president, has created a new memorial based on one which was successful in impeaching a federal official in the past. You can find it on their website as a PDF.

STOP WAITING FOR YOUR MEMBERS OF CONGRESS TO ACT FOR YOU.

You can initiate the impeachment process yourself by downloading the memorial, filling in the relevant information in the blanks (your name, state, etc.), and sending it in.

I don't know if you're just a bot or have all this thought out and ready to respond to like-minded posts you stumble across. But I like what's being said. Except for the fact that any serious thought toward impeachment should also advance a thought toward the future. If Bush gets impeached, someone else takes his place. Is Cheney really better for the country than Bush? The dude does enough damage behind the curtains. I'd hate to think what he'd do with full power... No, what really needs to be done is a full refformation of our government. Reorganize the system into an actual, true democracy. So that the people get what they want, not just appointed officials. And no mere petition can make a miracle like this happen

Initiating the impeachment process would lead to an investigation that would implicate lots of people in the Bush administration who are guilty of committing crimes, including Cheney ( ... )
