GOP candidate calls for impeachment
http://www.rutlandherald.com/apps/pbcs.dll/article?AID=/20050721/NEWS/507210422/1002/NEWS01

A Congressional candidate who wants to impeach President Bush insists he can win the Republican primary.

Dennis Morrisseau, 62, of West Pawlet, plans to seek the Republican nomination to run for U.S. House of Representatives. The seat is being vacated by Rep. Bernard Sanders, I-Vt., who plans a run for the U.S. Senate.

A central part of his platform, Morrisseau said, will be bringing articles of impeachment against Bush.

He will most likely face Maj. Gen. Martha Rainville, adjutant general of the Vermont National Guard, in the September 2006 primary, along with any other candidates who might get themselves placed on the ballot between now and then.


:woohoo:

3. Best News in WEEKS
Republicans with Principles are the ones who can stop this horror.

Where are they? (besides Dennis in Vt.)

4. I think this confirms what I thought on my post
http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=view_all&address=132x1948564

My first response was from a freeper so it struck a nerve.

THIS IS GOOD NEWS, but I don't want a repuglican for any position
even if he is voted in to impeach, I want a democratic rep.

14. I'd rather it was a Republican already IN office.
And from a "red" state would be an even bigger bonus. But hopefully other Repugs might take Morriseau's argument seriously and do what he can't do yet.

15. I'm really enjoying these "I told you so's."
How many times have I said Republicans will eat their own when it comes down to it? Party loyalty is a myth.
