There is a solution
I'm listenin.. I have been informed that the impetus for any type of recall motion would have to be done during a State Constitutional Convention. The window of opportunity for holding such conventions is set by law to be a somewhat lengthy interval. I believe it was either 16 or 27 year time spans and we are presently quite a ways away from that now.
There is also no way to enact any sort of citizen initiative/referendum question regarding the subject. So we are left with relying on the rest of the good folks of the USA to rebuke any of our elected officials. If the people of the Empire State can have some kind of showing (maybe like a co-ordinated state wide rally) in acceptance of the penalty for censure then something can be done. Congressional leaders from other states would listen to their constituencies and see our resolve to bear the burden of sedition. Realistically, it would take a Herculean effort to get an overtaxed state citizenry with a large segment of the population dependant on Government spending to accept. If it did occur, it would be momentous in the "struggle" ( how do you like the commieword?) against socialism. Like a modern day tea party.
Keep me posted please.

FYI, see my
post #1820 for links I posted on FR witht the specific language of what is proposed for recalls. There are four different posts I cut and past the language....and I believe my first post has the link to get directly to the bill, itself. If you are able to explain, exactly what it means when it says something about "two more legislative elections" (not quoting exacting right), I'd appreciate your posting it here. Thanks.
Another way would be to have a strong candidate and active base defeat her in '06 using this incident and the spitting incident together, repeatedly.

I'm up wayyyy tooo past my bedtime. But I get this message in late from my judge/military friend:
"I forgot to complete one of my thoughts on Hillary Clinton. A campaign can be lodged by citizens to the Senators and Representatives in the U.S. Congress for censureship of Senator Clinton"
I'm assuming that means our requests can't be ignored? To date, from the posts so far, it seems the email, phone calls might be being ignored? Maybe we can approach our senator/congressional contacts better so it can't be ignored?
I'm off for now. Be back for follow ups.

Where are we exactly on this timeline?

What exactly does this mean in common speak? Does this mean that citizens are in the current states hip pockets for monies? Cause people follow the money. If we were able to implement a private funding source...we could lure people off the gov moneywise. Example, a private granting source for nonprofits.
Or did you mean something else?
