To Replace Nancy Pelosi as Speaker of the House of Representatives for the Purposes of Pursuing Impeachment Petition
Scott Creighton has initiated "To Replace Nancy Pelosi as Speaker of the House of Representatives for the Purposes of Pursuing Impeachment Petition". While this is a major step, it is not one to be considered lightly. Yet, after learning that she plans to use Republican corruption as a 2008 House campaign issue instead of pursuing the impeachment (and later removal from office) of Vice President Dick Cheney, I have no choice but to believe that she fully intends to put the interests of her political party ahead of the interests of the nation and of her obligation to support and defend the Constitution of the Unites States. I cannot think of any other way to get her attention than to threaten her with removal from her historic position as the first ever female Speaker of the House. But the fact that she is a woman and a Democrat makes no difference. The evidence has been forthcoming the most under her watch, and the previous Speaker who ignored the president's and vice president's crimes might be cut some slack, but not Speaker Pelosi. We now have proof that the vice president acted illegally. If she won't let impeachment proceedings go forward because she wants to use it as a campaign issue, then let's get someone in there who will go through with impeachment. Leadership isn't just holding a position or a gavel. Leadership is leading. So, Ms Pelosi, lead or get out of the way.
It is incumbent upon every American citizen to hold their Representatives to their oaths of office. If members of the US Military are expected to fight and die as part of their oath to protect and defend the constitution of the United States, how can our Representatives balk at impeachment?
