Tian.Greens.org — Many months ago Cindy Sheehan had put out the call to get letters calling for the Impeachment of George Bush and Dick Cheney. She said that she would personally deliver them to Pelosi’s office. This was the day. We started with a bit of grandstanding with cool signs.
Cindy explained that they had about eight thousand individual letters and more than three thousand signatures on petitions. Since Pelosi is Speaker of the House, she has a responsibility to respond to national issues like the need for impeachment of the current occupant of the White House. Cindy hoped that this pile of letters would get the point across. If that doesn’t work, Cindy promised to be on the ballot running against Pelosi in the Fall Election.
Just in case anybody missed the constitutional nature of the problem, Cindy read Article two, section four of the Constitution to us, which CLEARLY says it is Congresses job to Impeach and remove from office the President and other Officers of the United States for “treason, bribery, or other high crimes or misdemeanors.” She also reminded us of some of the crimes by mentioning privacy invasions, Guantanamo, and the illegal war in Iraq.
Brad said he is planning to put together another beach impeach on the first Saturday that Cindy can collect signatures to get her name on the ballot. I think he said it would be early in April. Let’s be there!
