ATLANTA–25 US Representatives–including two members of the Georgia delegation–have now signed on as co-sponsors of H. Res 635, demanding a probe which could recommend Bush’s impeachment, including the initial sponsor, US Rep. John Conyers (D-MI), Atlanta Progressive News has learned.

If the Democratic Party is able to retake the US House of Representatives, Rep. Conyers would become Chairman Conyers of the House Judiciary Committee, whereas he is currently minority leader on the Committee.

If not acted on this session, the bill would have to be reintroduced next session. It is possible that a new bill could include new language regarding NSA domestic wiretapping.

Sources in Washington DC tell Atlanta Progressive News that H. Res 635 is a venue for coalition among members of Congress who are willing to consider impeachment for a variety of reasons.

Even though H. Res 635 does not specifically reference the NSA domestic wiretapping issue, some Members of US Congress have found the wiretapping issue to be a compelling reason to sign on as a co-sponsor, sources say.

26 US Representatives now total want Bush either to face an impeachment probe or to resign. US Rep. Bobby Rush (D-IL) is the representative who has called for Bush’s resignation, according to a World Can’t Wait statement issued to Atlanta Progressive News.

Two (2) Members of US Congress signed on yesterday, February 14, 2006, including US Rep. Gwen Moore (D-WI) and US Rep. Nydia Velazquez (D-NY), according to thomas.loc.gov. Since APN’s last story on H. Res 635, US Rep. Mike Honda (D-CA), also signed on, having done so on February 8, 2006. Press representatives for Reps. Moore, Velazquez, and Honda were not immediately available for comment.

Rep. Charles Rangel (D-NY)

I wonder what his good buddy Sean thinks about this?

[danamco]

I see along with Jim McDermott, the Congressional Black Caucus is well represented.



Yeah, and how many members are there in he house???
IAROTLMAO!!!

[Just A Nobody]

A start?

[Trajan88]

Hey Conyers... little reminder... Mr. Bush was re-elected in '04.

Now sit down because you've been served. Again.

[danamco]

The GOP will hold both houses. Bush is going to campaign like there is no tomorrow (which for him, there is not).



No reason to panic or extra campaigning necessary, because the more these dumbocRATS open the mouths, the more thankful we should be!
76% polled said Cheney did the right thing!!
Hmmm!!!

[zarf]

Clinton payback. No more, no less.

[danamco]

The current 25 total co-sponsors are Rep. Neil Abercrombie (D-HI), Rep. Tammy Baldwin (D-WI), Rep. Lois Capps (D-CA), Rep. William Lacy Clay (D-MO), Rep. John Conyers (D-MI), Rep. Sam Farr (D-CA), Rep. Maurice Hinchey (D-NY), Rep. Mike Honda (D-CA), Rep. Sheila Jackson-Lee (D-TX), Rep. Barbara Lee (D-CA), Rep. John Lewis (D-GA), Rep. Carolyn Maloney (D-NY), Rep.

Charles Rangel (D-NY), Rep. Jan Schakowsky (D-IL), Rep. Fortney Pete Stark (D-CA), Rep. Nydia Velazquez (D-NY), Rep. Maxine Waters (D-CA), and Rep. Lynn Woolsey (D-CA).




Nothing but a bunch of "Loser-man" and a breed of the "progressive" movement!!!

[danamco]

Who thinks this is a winning election issue for the donks?


They, "stupid" !!!

[danamco]

what do you call 25 LW moonbat US representatives at the bottom of the ocean?



Progressive!!!

[spikeytx86]

I for one hope them and the entire democratic party puts all there weight and time behind impeaching Bush. That alone will insure a landslide for us at the polls. Any problems the American Electorate is having with House And Senate Republicans or the Administration, will be eliminated once they see the unbridled lunacy and pure hate that emanates from the dark side.

[danamco]

Conyers as Chairman of the Judiciary and Rangel as head of Ways & Means is a NIGHTMARE scenario.



And then they will bring back sam gibbons from Tampa for an encore of temper tantrum after no longer being head of ways/means he showed 1994!??!

[goldstategop]

If voters think the President went too far, they can throw Republicans out of office. I haven't seen voters cotton onto the moonbats' notion political differences should be a matter of criminal prosecution.

(Denny Crane: "I Don't Want To Socialize With A Pinko Liberal Democrat Commie. Say What You Like About Republicans. We Stick To Our Convictions. Even When We Know We're Dead Wrong.")

[danamco]

Pretty much who I expected. Baghdad Jim McDermott. Commie McKinney. "Whiff of fascism" Nadler. The usual liberal suspects, including much (if not all) of Manhattan's congressional delegation.




President Abraham Lincoln said these words: "Congressmen who willfully take actions during wartime that damage morale and under-mind the military are saboteurs and should be arrested, exiled, or hanged"!!
Many other dumbocRATS should be included as aspirants for a firing squad!!!

[CyberAnt]

ROTFLOL !! I KNOW!

It's really too funny to be real!

These are the people who are supposed to be GOVERNING ME!! They're idiots!

[Doogle]

...you can't always get watcha want,....you can't always get watcha want

[Myrddin]

Is it any surprise that "progressives" aka communists would be angling for impeachment? Dig up the old membership rolls of the Democratic Socialists of America. I suspect you with find the same names as referenced in this article.

[Myrddin]

I see we share the same memories of the DSA site. I'm not sure they publish the list anymore. The commies have been hiding like cockroaches.

[nopardons]

There are NO grounds, the damned Dems have NO chance in retaking the House, and Conyers is a contemptible arse.

[bannie]

They'll probably also try to impeach him on the grounds that VP Cheney had a hunting accident. Stay tuned!

[Petronski]

...a venue for coalition...

That's a highly wussified euphemism for BANDWAGON.
