do it yourself impeachment

Rather than leave this in the replies section, I’ve decided to give it

more prominence as an actual post; with thanks to the person who uploaded it.

Do-It-Yourself Impeachment Due this Thursday!!! (Oct 12)

The day the nation demands impeachment is almost upon us. This coming

Thursday (Oct 12), sacks and sacks of mail will arrive in congress

demanding impeachment via the House of Representative's own rules. This

legal document is as binding as if a State or if the House itself passed

the impeachment resolution (H.R. 635).

There's a little known and rarely used clause of the "Jefferson Manual"

in the rules for the House of Representatives which sets forth the

various ways in which a president can be impeached. Only the House

Judiciary Committee puts together the Articles of Impeachment, but

before that happens, someone has to initiate the process.

That's where we come in. In addition to the State-by-State method, one

of the ways to get impeachment going is for individual citizens like you

and me to submit a memorial. ImpeachforPeace.org, part of the movement

to impeach the president, has created a new memorial based on one which

was successful in impeaching a federal official in the past. You can

find it on their website as a PDF.

STOP WAITING FOR YOUR MEMBERS OF CONGRESS TO ACT FOR YOU.

You can initiate the impeachment process yourself by downloading the

memorial, filling in the relevant information in the blanks (your name,

state, etc.), and sending it in. Be a part of history.

More information on the precedent for submitting an impeachment

memorial, and the House Rules on this procedure, can also be found at

the above address.

If you have any doubts that Bush has committed crimes warranting

impeachment, read this page: http://ImpeachForPeace.org/evidence/

If you're concerned that impeachment might not be the best strategy

at this point, read the bottom of this page: http://ImpeachForPeace.org

talking about peace."
