2 weeks ago I got fed up with all of the scandals. I found this website – it gives excellent information about getting your city or state to pass a resolution calling for impeachment. I contacted a state rep in Missouri I thought would be receptive to introducing this and emailed her a copy of the draft resolution provided on the website. She filed it yesterday.
While I don’t think the legislation will going anywhere – I feel that we can all do something to voice our concern. Here is a link to the resolution. http://www.house.mo.gov/bills071/bills/hcr46.htm 6 years ago

We’re driving from Phoenix to LA on March 17th (4th anniversary of the occupation) to participate in a mass march against the war in Iraq- It begins on Hollywood and Vine, and already tens of thousands of people are expected to attend. It will be coordinated with a march in front of the Pentagon in DC at the same time- altogether about 100,000 protestors, not to mention the numerous events elsewhere in the country. We can’t let there be a 5th anniversary!! Peace and love, guys 6 years ago

Brother of Pat Tillman, also a former Ranger who’s now out of the military, had this to say about his and his brother’s time in service and what our obligation as American citizens now is:

In a democracy, the policy of the leaders is the policy of the people. So don’t be shocked when our grandkids bury much of this generation as traitors to the nation, to the world and to humanity. Most likely, they will come to know that “somehow” was nurtured by fear, insecurity and indifference, leaving the country vulnerable to unchecked, unchallenged parasites.

Luckily this country is still a democracy. People still have a voice. People still can take action. It can start after Pat’s birthday.

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.

http://ImpeachForPeace.org/ImpeachNow.html

More information on the precedent for submitting an impeachment
memorial, and the House Rules on this procedure, can also be found at
the above address.

If you have any doubts that Bush has committed crimes warranting
impeachment, read this page: http://ImpeachForPeace.org/evidence/

If you’re concerned that impeachment might not be the best strategy
at this point, read the bottom of this page: http://ImpeachForPeace.org

Bush really likes these signing statements.

This caught my eye about the Patriot Act.

http://www.indystar.com/apps/pbcs.dll/article?AID=/20060324/NEWS06/603240464/1012

From article:
Bush signed the bill with fanfare at a White House ceremony March 9. But after the reporters and guests had left, the White House quietly issued a “signing statement,” an official document in which a president lays out his interpretation of a new law.

In the statement, Bush said he did not consider himself bound to tell Congress how the Patriot Act powers were being used and that, despite the law’s requirements, he could withhold the information if he decided that disclosure would “impair foreign relations, national security, the deliberative process of the executive, or the performance of the executive’s constitutional duties.”
Thursday, Sen. Patrick J. Leahy, D-Vt., said Bush’s statement represented “nothing short of a radical effort to manipulate the constitutional separation of powers and evade accountability and responsibility for following the law.”
end article

For a bit more about signing statements, since I am a mere peon, I found some interesting opinions offered by an attorney at FindLaw.com. And this attorney was counsel to Richard Nixon’s presidency, so he is well versed in these matters.

This was written in January, 2006.

http://writ.news.findlaw.com/dean/20060113.html

For those who do not want to read the full text, here’s a clip:

[Note, I would URGE you to read the whole thing since it’s quite informative.]

Start:
Generally, Bush’s signing statements tend to be brief and very broad, and they seldom cite the authority on which the president is relying for his reading of the law. None has yet been tested in court. But they do appear to be bulking up the powers of the presidency. Here are a few examples:

Suppose a new law requires the President to act in a certain manner – for instance, to report to Congress on how he is dealing with terrorism. Bush’s signing statement will flat out reject the law, and state that he will construe the law “in a manner consistent with the President’s constitutional authority to withhold information the disclosure of which could impair foreign relations, the national security, the deliberative processes of the Executive, or the performance of the Executive’s constitutional duties.”

The upshot? It is as if no law had been passed on the matter at all.

Or suppose a new law suggests even the slightest intrusion into the President’s undefined “prerogative powers” under Article II of the Constitution, relating to national security, intelligence gathering, or law enforcement. Bush’s signing statement will claim that notwithstanding the clear intent of Congress, which has used mandatory language, the provision will be considered as “advisory.”

The upshot? It is as if Congress had acted as a mere advisor, with no more formal power than, say, Karl Rove – not as a coordinate and coequal branch of government, which in fact it is.

As Phillip Cooper observes, the President’s signing statements are, in some instances, effectively rewriting the laws by reinterpreting how the law will be implemented. Notably, Cooper finds some of Bush’s signing statements – and he has the benefit of judging them against his extensive knowledge of other President’s signing statements—“excessive, unhelpful, and needlessly confrontational.”

The Constitutional and Practical Problems With Bush’s Use of Signing Statements

Given the incredible number of constitutional challenges Bush is issuing to new laws, without vetoing them, his use of signing statements is going to sooner or later put him in an untenable position. And there is a strong argument that it has already put him in a position contrary to Supreme Court precedent, and the Constitution, vis-à-vis the veto power.

Bush is using signing statements like line item vetoes. Yet the Supreme Court has held the line item vetoes are unconstitutional. In 1988, in Clinton v. New York, the High Court said a president had to veto an entire law: Even Congress, with its Line Item Veto Act, could not permit him to veto provisions he might not like.
