Impeach Bush Yourself – Due Date this Thursday, Oct. 12th

Filed under: Impeach for Peace — Mikael @ 9:11 am

Jodin submitted the following to this Impeachment blog and I am publishing it nearly verbatim: Do-It-Yourself Impeachment Due this Thursday!!! (Oct 12)

The day the nation demands impeachment is almost upon us. This coming
Thursday (Oct 12), sacks and sacks of mail will arrive in congress demanding
impeachment via the House of Representatives own rules. This legal document
is as binding as if a State or if the House itself passed the impeachment
resolution (H.R. 635).

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: Impeachment Form Download

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: ImpeachforPeace Evidence Page

If you’re concerned that impeachment might not be the best strategy
at this point, read the bottom of this page: Arguments Against Bush Impeachment

about peace.”
