Default Bush violates Constitution again...WHERE'S THE IMPEACHMENT?

On December 28, 2007, President George W. Bush directly violated the
Constitution of the United States of America, Article 1, Section 7, by
illegally and willfully performing a "pocket veto" of a bill presented
by Congress. A limited veto power, the "pocket veto" may only be used
when a bill sent to the President is "prevented from return" for
possible veto override. The main reason for a prevention of a bill's
return would be that Congress is in recess, but for over sixty years,
the House usually adjourns with the House clerk having instructions to
take any communications from the White House, including vetoed bills,
and pass their receipt along to the Speaker's office.

In this case, the bill was NOT "prevented from return," as the House
clerk was on duty Dec. 28, and the Senate wasn't even in recess at
all. Past practice amply shows that the bill could have been returned
to the House via the Clerk's office at any time on that date, or even
afterward, and certainly to the Senate, which was in session at the
time.

Thus, yet another impeachable violation of the US Constitution by our
nation's worst president ever...George W. Bush. Write your
representative and senators...DEMAND IMPEACHMENT NOW!
