A LiveJournal Friend of IfP (samvimes<\/a>) met with Senator Patty Murray’s King County Director regarding the impeachment issue. While the Senator’s views on impeachment were cautious, it was expressed that, “Senator Murray recognizes, and experiences herself, the frustration with the Bush Administration over their many impeachable offenses. If a motion to investigate were to make it to the floor, Murray would vote in favor.”<\/p>\n

Samvimes continues, “I grasp that she’s in a difficult position. Murray has been arguing against my beloved SJM 8016, the state resolution introduced by Eric Oemig that would, if passed, force the impeachment issue into the limelight at the Federal level. Why? Because she’s concerned that such a measure would leave Washington State in a vulnerable position–which I interpret to mean “subject to reprisals”. Murray is putting Washington State first, so she isn’t willing to stick her neck out to get the impeachment process started. I suspect a lot of Senators and Representatives feel the same way.”<\/p>\n

Here’s the part about IfP’s DIY Impeachment<\/a>, “The other thing she didn’t know about (and as I said, she was quite well-versed and almost nothing else I said came as a surprise to her) was the idea of “Do-It-Yourself Impeachment<\/a>“. I asked her about it right at the end. She noted that they have access to legal counsel who could explore the idea further, and explain how it might work. I pointed her to my post about it, and she said she would look into it.” (Read More)<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
