House Resolution to Call for Sen. Rockefeller's Resignation (MemoGate Action Alert!)

House Resolution to Call for Sen. Rockefeller's Resignation (MemoGate Action Alert!)

Although the Senate Republicans have taken some significant steps toward holding the Democrats on the Select Intelligence committee accountable for their treasonous memo outlining a plan to use the power and resources of the committee against the President -- such as partially shutting the committee down -- further action is necessary.

Despite popular belief, there are Republicans in Washington with spines -- in the House of Representatives.  For example, Majority Leader DeLay has shown an enormous willingness to play hardball with the Democrats -- just look at how he is punishing House Democrats by denying them pork for their districts and how he beat the Texas Democrats over the redistricting issue.  This is the type of Republican we need fighting with us on this one!

Thus, we have reason to believe that House Republicans would be willing, with enough of a "push", to bring a resolution to the floor calling for the resignation of Senator Rockefeller.  The House Democrats are bringing a resolution to the floor calling for the Secretary of Defense's resignation -- why not bring our own demanding the resignation of a real traitor?

You can help the effort in a few easy steps: 

1)  Click here to create the email.  The email will be received as a fax.

2)  Write him an email (that will be sent as a fax) explaining why the House Republicans need to pass a resolution demanding the resignation of Senator Rockefeller over the Democrat Memo, or, if you are short on time, use the following sample:


Dear Congressman,

I'm writing you regarding a grave threat to the safety and security of Americans at home and abroad.

As I am sure you are aware, a memo from the Democrats on the Senate Select Intelligence committee has surfaced outlining a plan to:

Fabricate political conclusions that would damage and embarrass the President and the administration, “pull the trigger” on an "investigation", under false pretenses, using the resources of the Intelligence Committee to search (or fish) for information that might support the pre-determined political conclusions, and then, using a loophole in the Intelligence Committee rules, attach it as a “political bomb” to any report the committee releases.

This is treason, and, as Senator Zell Miller stated, "heads should roll".  Unfortunately, the Senate Republicans have been unable or unwilling to carry out their duty to investigate this gross ethical violation that threatens the safety of all Americans - the Intelligence Committee is supposed to be determining how to improve our intelligence gathering capabilities and make America safer, not conducting opposition research for the Democrat National Committee.  This unnecessarily wastes public funds and puts us all at risk.

Of course, the Senate Democrats, instead of disavowing the memo (the American thing to do) have chosen to put politics over national security.  They have chose a "spin" strategy: blame the cops for catching the robbers.  They have been caught red handed committing an act of treason, and they would like to, instead, put the blame on those who caught them.  This cannot stand.

Therefore, I call on you and the House Republicans to do the right thing: call for the resignation of Senator Rockefeller.  Even if he did not himself pen the memo, a member of his staff must have.  The doctrine of respondeat superior dictates that a superior is held responsible for the acts of his subordinates.  Senator Rockefeller, ranking member of the committee, must therefore be held responsible.

Please do the right thing, Congressman.

Thank you,

YOUR NAME

YOUR ADDRESS


3)  Send it!  That's all there is to it.

Also, please take the time to call Rep. DeLay about this important issue at: (202) 225-5951

I strongly suggest faxing/emailing/calling/mailing your own representatives (or others in the House Leadership).

You can find your representatives by clicking here.  You can find other members of the leadership here.

Let's keep their feet to the fire!!!

In the past, this country has dealt with treason with a firm hand. Our forefathers who worked so hard to create this wonderful nation in which we live would never stand for this. In addition, un-American senators, such as Rockefeller should be subject to removal, as well as harsh criminal sanctions. It is disgusting that a man like Rockefeller can use his power to put the American people in danger for the purpose of bringing down the Republicans, and gets away with it. Rockefeller's actions are reprehensible, and he should be punished to the fullest extent the law allows. It would be un-American to allow him to sit in our Senate and represent the American people.

I added this paragraph to your email. If it were up to me, I would get Rockefeller an all expense paid trip to Sing Sing..
When did it become acceptable to commit treason?

Unfortunately, WV has a corrupt RAT Governor. If Rockefeller were to resign, and I don't think for one second that he would, another RAT would take his place.

The Republicans have an improving chance of winning that Governor's seat next year though, IMO.

Bump for the evening crowd. This is much too important to let the alphabet media get away with ignoring it.

Letter sent (I stole some of yours):
______________________________________________

Dear Congressman,

I'm writing to you regarding the "Memo" which came out of the Democrat Senator Rockefeller's trash can. Thankfully, we now all know its partisan, treasonous contents, but I shall reiterate the salient points:

Fabricate political conclusions that would damage and embarrass the President and the administration, "pull the trigger" on an "investigation," under false pretenses, using the resources of the Intelligence Committee to search (or fish) for information that might support the pre-determined political conclusions, and then, using a loophole in the Intelligence Committee rules, attach it as a "political bomb" to any report the committee releases.

The question is, what are you going to do to remove so grave a threat to the safety and security of Americans at home and abroad? Thus far, it appears the Republicans are guilty of complicity by its inaction.

Therefore, I call on you and the House Republicans to make a Resolution which calls for the resignation of Senator Rockefeller. It matters not whether he is its author or its writer. He is, ultimately, responsible for any member of his staff who may have done so. Senator Rockefeller, ranking member and Vice Chair of the committee, must be held accountable. Senator Rockefeller must pay the consequences: resign. He has shown himself incapable of performing those duties which he swore to uphold: protecting the American people, first and foremost.

Please do the right thing, Congressman.

Thank you,
