A Coalition of the Willing to Impeach appears in Congress.
\nAnthony St. Martin of <\/a>Pledge to Impeach
\n\"dw_portrait.jpg\"<\/a>
\n[…]Last Monday Rep. Danny Davis (D-IL 7th) stated to Pledge to Impeach spokesman Anthony St. Martin and independent reporter Jay Marx that though he currently defers to “leadership” on the issue of impeachment he would be compelled to represent his constituency if a Citizen’s Petition calling for the impeachment of George W. Bush came from his district. When word of Rep. Davis’ willingness to part from leader Nancy Pelosi (D-CA 8th)’s insistence that impeachment be “off the table”\u009d was relayed to Rep. Diane Watson (D-CA 33rd)’s Chief of Staff, Jim Clarke, Mr. Clarke replied, also guardedly, but with certainty, that Rep. Watson would also represent such a petition coming from her constituency. Clarke even went as far as speaking for Rep. Conyers (D-MI 14th), whom he said would respond similarly to such a petition if it arrived with at least 1% of the district’s support. In other words, impeachment is just 6,500 petition signatures away from the floor of Congress.<\/p>\n

It must be conveyed here, that Mr. St. Martin observed a prevailing tension or even fear in the eyes of some who work in the House Office Buildings. His feeling that those Members opposed to this administration have been locked up and suppressed to the point that they find no sense to bringing their own bill for impeachment, only to be defeated and further isolated, or worse. However, the statements of Mr. Davis and Clarke can be seen as a plea for help; that if given the chance to bring a citizen’s petition, these Members could claim that they have no choice but to fulfill their duty of office and bring it to the floor. As ironic as it may seem, WE must not let THEM down.<\/p>\n

The Pledge to Impeach campaign has immediately taken it on to respond to these Member’s ovations by seeking out every political group or club that has been collecting petition signatures for impeachment and pairing them up with Congresspersons who make the same commitment to represent that petition on the floor. With special focus on, but not limited to the
\ndistricts of Davis, Watson, and Conyers, we will need our own coalition of citizens and impeachment groups willing to work together to bring our maligned Representatives what they need to fight for this greatest of causes. We may not have the same opportunity once war breaks out in Iran. We must act now. We must act together. And we must not fail. Contact us ASAP and join the Coalition of the Willing to Oppose Bush\/Cheney.<\/p>\n
