30 US Reps for Bush Impeachment Inquiry
Atlanta Progressive News ^ | 3/10/06 | Matthew Cardinale

Posted on 03/12/2006 2:36:34 PM PST by Blackirish

APN) ATLANTA – 30 US House Representatives have signed on as sponsors or co-sponsors of H. Res 635, which would create a Select Committee to look into the grounds for recommending President Bush’s impeachment, Atlanta Progressive News has learned.

“There has been massive support for House Resolution 635 from a very vigorous network of grassroots activists and people committed to holding the Bush Administration accountable for its widespread abuses of power,” US Rep. John Conyers (D-MI) said in a statement prepared for Atlanta Progressive News.

The Center for Constitutional Rights (CCR) also released a book, Articles of Impeachment Against President Bush. The Center is extremely influential in high-profile court fights over issues such as wiretapping, the treatment of detainees by the US, and felon voting rights.

“We have the book, we are calling for the impeachment of the President, and we’re supporting Conyers’s resolution,” Bill Goodman, CCR Legal Director, told Atlanta Progressive News.

“The fraudulent basis on which the President got us into the war in Iraq; the obvious criminality of the warrantless wiretapping; indefinite detention in violation of the Constitution; torture as a part of indefinite detention and other ways; special rendition and torture, which is the outsourcing of torture... All of these violate various laws of the US, and they also violate his oath office which he swears to uphold and defend the Constitution of the United States, and he’s doing just the opposite, he’s undermining the Constitution and attempting to destroy certain parts of it,” Goodman said.

Meanwhile, at least eight (8) US cities, including Arcata, Santa Cruz, and San Francisco, each in California; and Brookfield, Dummerston, Marlboro, Newfane, and Putney, each in Vermont, have passed resolutions calling for Bush’s impeachment.

The GOP needs to nationalize the Congressional elections

Make the point that if you vote Dem, this is what you'll get.

I'll bet a lot of Dems will be voting Pubbie. Again. Unless, of course, the GOP insists upon offering up more linguini-spined RINOs. If so, and the GOP loses seats, then the GOP will deserve what it gets.

Sadly, like Barbara Boxer or Sheila Jackson Lee, John Conyers will be reelected, even though it's obvious he's a kook.

Pity the left. They have been raised with the continual, omnipresent idea of the immorality of American power. No matter what the threat, they will not let go of the idea that America is the world's biggest problem, not the terrorists.

I think this falls into the category of "biting the hand that feeds you" - aka - "biting the hand that's making sure you're alive, you don't have to pray to Allah, and CAN eat."

These idiots don't understand the war on terror, and would rather rage war against one man.

While 352,421 other US cities haven't given it a thought.

Hey its been obvious for some time that the rat party will impeach the President if the gain control of the House.

The only thing I can't figure is why the President and his people are helping the demorats to achieve their goal!

If the Democrats win, yes they will impeach President Bush.

If they convict Cheney becomes president.

They have a case against Bush for not securing our border with Mexico, calling those who want to stop illegal immigration "vigilantes", and not championing our sovereignty over Mexico.

Unfortunately for us the Socialists (Dems), and Republicans are on the same page with Pres. Bush,when it comes to illegal immigration. - Tom

"If the Democrats win, yes they will impeach President Bush."

I wonder. It would make them look like total idiots just in time for 2008.

If Conyers becomes Judiciary Committee Chairman, yes it becomes more than a fevered fantasy. These people are deadly serious and while its partly payback for Clinton, there's also an element where they want to discredit Bush's policies. So if they win, I expect them to make it happen.
