Green Mountain Daily — Peter Shumlin is waiting to hear from you.
\nLast week, with great flair and impressive gravitas, Senate President pro-temp Shumlin said that if he recieved an impeachment resolution, he would see that it moved through the Senate. But it turns out that he was only talking about the impeachment resolution that he knows will never get out of Gaye Symington’s House.<\/p>\n

Senator Jeanette White has gotten an impeachment resolution drafted by the legislative counsel and would like to introduce it into the Senate. But Shumlin says that he won’t let it happen.<\/p>\n

Did he talk the good talk about the Constitution and the rule of law because he believes in them, or because he saw an opportunity to curry favor without having to actually do anything?<\/p>\n

Let’s let him know that we’re sure that he’s a man of principle who can be taken at his word. Let’s all give him a call this weekend and remind him of his promise.<\/p>\n

Mr. Shumlin, we are drowning in cynicism, make us proud.
