TALKING POINTS FOR IMPEACHMENT

The record is clear!

This President, Vice President and other officials of the administration have committed
many impeachable offenses; see among other sources, Representative Kucinich's (D-OH) 35
articles of impeachment for the President (HR 1258) and for the Vice President (HR333)
and former US Attorney General Ramsey Clark's lists of 20 articles of impeachment.


In the armed forces we took an oath to "support and defend the Constitution of the United States
against all enemies, foreign and domestic." We still take that oath seriously and we call on you
to execute your duties as Congressmen to impeach.


This lawless administration has taken us into an illegal war that is costing us $720 million
dollars a day. Congress can stop that financial blood letting by impeaching.


This administration has taken on unheard of presidential powers. The unprecedented encroachment
by the presidency on the powers of congress will become a precedent and continue with future
presidents of both parties. Congress must stop this aggregation of power by impeaching.


It is the law. Congress is charged with the obligation of impeaching in the case
of "high crimes or misdemeanors." The crimes are obvious; to willfully ignore them
is lawlessness and in itself criminal.
