The Massachusetts Impeachment Coalition
Impeachment activists urge Olver (D-MA) to respect the voters
by Susie Patlove, Darcy Sweeny, Tom Plaut.
Over the past year, 24 town meetings in John Olver’s (D-MA) Congressional District voted on issue of impeachment by margins as high as 339 to 1. Some towns called for Congress to investigate the possible grounds for impeachment. Others asked that their resolutions and vote be included in the Congressional Record.
On July 5 representatives from 15 of these towns met with Congressman Olver in Amherst to urge him to act now on impeachment. We gave five specific reasons to impeach:
To protect and defend the Constitution from all enemies foreign and domestic,
To prevent dangerous precedents and rein in the unitary executive, warning future presidents not to start where George Bush left off,
To re-establish openness in government,
To avoid the extreme danger of a nuclear or other disaster if the current administration stays in power, and
To heal this nation, our veterans and the world.
We rebutted the reasons frequently given by Congressman Olver and his Democratic colleagues to take no action:
Impeachment won’t work – we don’t have the votes.
Everything can change rapidly as it did during the Nixon impeachment investigations.
Hearings will take energy from needed legislative work.
During the Nixon impeachment investigation Congress raised the minimum wage, passed the endangered species act, and began to draw down troop numbers in Vietnam.
The impeachment process will prevent us from stopping the war.
We believe impeachment proceedings will stop the war. They will make clear that the cause of the war was lust for oil. The threat from WMD’s and our interest in liberating Iraq were lies.
Impeachment will unite the Republicans behind Bush and divide the nation.
On the contrary, impeachment will unite the country against Bush and his Congressional supporters.
If we let Bush hang himself, the Democrats will win in 2008.
There may be no elections in 2008.
After hearing that Congressman Olver was definitely against beginning impeachment proceedings at this time, Cory Bazinet a veteran of the wars in Afghanistan and Iraq said, “In view of your comments I will not read my prepared statement. I have only one question for you, what will it take for you to change your mind and to cosponsor H.R. 333?”Olver was taken aback. He finally answered that he would be for impeachment if he were convinced that it would be useful.
A lively but respectful discussion ensued. At the close of the meeting the group urged Congressman Olver to use his voice and his vote to save the Constitution and our country.

August Red Alert!! Plot to overthrow the U.S.A and Constitution
August 20, the criminals are meeting in Montebello, Quebec to plot the overthrow of the U.S.A and destroy our Constitution.
Carry signs with Traitor, Impeach, or Treason printed on them.
Impeach Bush! -North America Union- is Treason! News snuffed, Secret deal!! U.S.A ends 2010.
Lying King George behind our backs and under the smoke of his own war has given the United States his legacy of Treason.
The North America Union is being implemented without Congress consent or without any public vote or comment. North America Union replaces our Democratic Republic, United States of America; it will be fully implemented in 2010. When our soldiers come home from war, they will return to North America Union, not the United States of America, how are you going to explain that to them? King George has ruled that the U.S.A be abolished!!
This is it folks, every American who has ever pledged their Allegiance to the Flag, every American who has pledged to defend the Constitution of the United States of America, has to step forward. Now!
Demand your elected representatives to control this dictator and to bring him and his conspirators to Justice for Treason.
Demand your Congress representatives to confirm their allegiance to the Constitution of the United States of America. Mark any neo-con Republican or Democrat who side with Bush and his North American Union as Traitors and run them out of office!! Now!

-A Patriot’s Message- The hammer falls on the Constitution of the United States of America. Our freedom and Democracy, our sovereignty as a nation is coming to an end (2010).
The politically appointed neoconservatives in Justice sneer at Habeas Corpus; Geneva Convention; worker, consumer, investor and environment protection; education; affirmative action; individual rights and “entitlements†like Social Security and health care.
The corporate neo-con conspirators (Establishment) have their own agenda of a New World Order; W.T.O; N.A.F.T.A; N.A.U; immigration; globalization and “free tradeâ€; military seizure of foreign oil fields; employing a private army of mercenaries and propagandist; “dealing†with Afghanistan Opium drug lords harboring Osama Bin Laden and financing Al Qaeda.
The ideal corporate model is “Communism†where individual freedom and democracy are mute. The board of directors rule. The corporate neo-cons hate our regulatory government, Constitution and Individual Rights.
Our Federal Government is purposely bankrupt by war/trade debt and the ideal corporate nation, China, are carrying trillions of dollars of our debt. Communist China and their junior corporate American partner’s technically own the “U.S.A†resulting in “Globalization†and loss of sovereignty. Mission accomplished. The surge strategy is not to win the war but to pump oil and further indebt U.S.A to Communist China. Patriots, sign on! Impeach Bush, Cheney and nullify their Supreme Court appointments!

All representatives- We are starting a list. I demand that you reaffirm your allegiance to the Constitution of the United States of America and begin impeachment procedure against Bush, Cheney. If you do not, you will be branded a traitor. You’re either with U.S or against U.S.
Impeaching Bush, Cheney would not only save and cleanse the U.S.A but also bring our citizens together. Once again Americans would have pride and respect for their country. Impeachment of these neo-con criminals would vindicate the U.S.A with the rest of the world.
If these evil criminals win, they rule with slavery, secrecy, lies, fear, hate, torture, terror and violence.
Our Founding Fathers knew that this element would always try to destroy the U.S.A that is why we have a Constitution to keep this element in check. After 2010 under N.A.U. rule (after the people find out; neo-con corporate media guilty) there will be violence and war which will play into their hands, evil thrives in that environment.(Mexican Army)
What about the economy? (shake, shake) our economy is already destroyed, the economy is an inside game. We can compete as Americans, after we purge our government of the traitor politicians; do not let their defeatist strategy scare you. We can do it! All we need is enough courage. The longer we wait, the harder it will be to get it done. DO IT NOW PEACEFULLY!!
