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!


Tired of no impeachment or at the least, an congressional
investigation? Then write to John Conyers, Henry Waxman, and Nancy
Pelosi. If you don't live in either Conyers' or Waxman's district,
sending an email is tricky. You can send an email to Pelosi
regardless if you're in her district or not because, as the Speaker of
the House, she answers everyone. Her email is:


Don't hold your breath, though. These three have thrown in the
towel. Waxman has admitted that pursuing impeachment would hurt the
Democrats. If this bothers you, as it should even Republicans, write
to all three. They are suppose to represent us, and to support the
Constitution. Their admission that politics outweighs their duties to
the Constitution is illegal.

Republicans, you should write, too. Isn't it time you point out how
illegal their political machinations are?
