Unless...we send them a very strong message - impeach or lose your jobs.

Maybe something like, "We voted you in to uphold the rule of law in this country and to preserve our Constitution. Our current President has done neither, in fact he has brazenly violated the law and our leaders in Congress have simply turned a blind eye. Our country deserves better. Our people deserve better. We call upon you to uphold your promise to the American people to bring us back to the place where our laws rule our contry, not men."

1. The country doesn't impeach. Congress does. There are not enough votes to do it successfully.

3. There weren't in 1972 either
see, that is why you put the pressure on...

Oh never mind, they will not do it since they are PART OF THE PROBLEM and doing what their oaths require them to do, well requires guts.

Guts are not part of the politicians keep it safe mentality

2. I agree with General Wesley Clark.
It's too soon. The country is not quite there yet.

4. Of course they will wuss out
Bush** spoke harshly about them today. :eyes:

Nothing has moved them from the path they are on. Investigate, make lots of noise, issue subpoenas then wuss out when they are ignored. But, but, but we tried. They don't want to come and be investigated.

They are not worried about losing their jobs. It is all part of the "So you gonna vote for a Republican? Sure you are. Bend over."

Ham sandwiches in action. ABR got us this.
