Impeach President Bush

While it is rare for us to call for action, the outrageous behavior, lies, authorization of torture, the illegal & immoral war against Iraq (costing the lives of 50,000+ innocent Iraqis) and so very much more, have us calling for the immediate Impeachment and removal of President George Bush. We call all peoples of Faith and of Good Will to immediately take whatever legal and moral action they can to help promote the impeachment of President George Bush and also of Vice President Dick Cheney.

Here are some excerpts from Rep. Conyers impeachment proposal and several relevant links (below) where you can help remove this most Un-Christian, Imposter President:

Rep. John Conyers

Submission of H.Res.635 - Recommending Investigation & Potential Impeachment of President Bush

On Dec. 18, 2005, Representative John Conyers submitted a bill, HRes 635, to the House. The bill calls for "Creating a select committee to investigate the Administration's intent to go to war before congressional authorization, manipulation of pre-war intelligence, encouraging and countenancing torture, retaliating against critics, and to make recommendations regarding grounds for possible impeachment."

Please contact your Representative and ask them to co-sponsor this bill.

This could be the start of some real progress. The bill is currently sitting in the House Rules Committee because a new rule must be made to form the Select Committee. Expect the Republicans on the committee to simply sit on this bill and prevent a vote. It is important that we pressure the committee members to pass the bill to the floor for a house vote. The Rules committee members are below. If you see your Congressperson in this list then please ask them to approve H.Res.635.

Republicans: Chairman David Dreier (CA), Lincoln Diaz-Balart (FL), Doc Hastings (WA), Pete Sessions (TX), Adam Putnam, (FL), Shelley Moore Capito (WV), Tom Cole (OK), Rob Bishop (UT) Phil Gingrey (GA)

Democrats: Louise Mcintosh Slaughter (NY) - Ranking Minority Member, Alcee Hastings (FL), Doris O. Matsui (CA), James P. Mcgovern (MA)

As of Feb. 9th, 2006, the bill is not scheduled for a vote. That would require action by the "leadership", which is the new House Majority Leader John Boehner, Chairman Dreier, the Majority Whip Roy Blunt and others. The Rules committee was waiting to see what legislation the new Majority Leader was going to push. If the bill sits idle for over a working month then it will probably not be voted on. In that case the only way to get it to the floor is to have a discharge petition signed by 218 Representatives (majority+1)
