Your Words Madame Speaker - Now Resign, or do your job and IMPEACH

What do you mean "impeachment is off the table" Madame Speaker?. By taking impeachment off the table, you are in violation of your oath to uphold and defend the constitution of the United States of America, in itself an impeachable offense. However, your words Madame Speaker over the last 7 years prove that if you were being sincere, impeachment should not only should be put back on the table, it should be the table, the knife, fork, plate, cups, saucer, food and drink. Or were you lying to us all?

This issue is not about what is politically convenient for you, nor is it about what is politically convenient for your party. This issue is about the future of the USA, her constitution and her people, something you swore to defend when you took your oath of office. By facilitating the Bush Junta through inaction, you are derelict in your duty not only to the people who elected you, but also to the people who didn`t vote for you. By not taking action, you betray the death of every man and woman in the US military who has died because of Bush`s lies. By not taking action, you are as guilty as Bush for the last 7 years, because you refuse to do what you were elected to do, what the constitution demands and what any respectable moral person demands, the impeachment, conviction and imprisonment of this gang of criminals masquerading as politicians. Margaret Thatcher once said "the trouble with people who sit in the middle of the road, is that they get run over by traffic coming from both sides". The time has come Madame Speaker to act, to display a fraction of the moral fortitude and bravery that men and woman through the last 230 years by laying down their lives for the country and an ideal they believed in, or you betray every person who has ever sacrificed anything so that the Constitution of the United States of America would prevail.

I have juxtaposed your words with those of the framers, the people who wrote the Constitution and the Bill of Rights, two documents that have for over 230 years made America a shining light to the world. Read what the framers said Madame Speaker, and read your own words.

Article 11 Section 4 - Section 4. The President, Vice President and all civil Officers of the United States, shall be removed from Office on Impeachment for, and Conviction of, Treason, Bribery, or other high Crimes and Misdemeanors."

“The partisan proposal that Republican leaders outlined yesterday is completely unacceptable, ... House Democrats will not participate in a sham that is just the latest example of congressional Republicans being the foxes guarding the president`s hen house.” - Nancy Pelosi

"The executive power is better to be trusted when it has D screen. Sir, we have a responsibility in the person of our President; he cannot act improperly, and hide either his negligence or inattention; he cannot roll upon any other person the weight of his criminality; no appointment can take place without his nomination; and he is responsible for every nomination he makes. . . . Add to all this, that officer is placed high, and is possessed of power far from being contemptible, yet not a single privilege is annexed to his character; far from being above the laws, he is amenable to them in his private character as a citizen, and in his public character by impeachment." - James Wilson

“If we`re ever going to protect the American people, we must have an outside independent committee. Let`s not have a charade about oversight.” - Nancy Pelosi

“There is nothing in the performance of this Congress in its four years since President Bush has been president that says that they will exercise proper oversight,” - Nancy Pelosi

"A tax cut only gives away different amounts of money from U.S. Treasury to different private citizens and is therefore in violation of the Constitution`s directive that all taxes be uniform throughout the States." - Nancy Pelosi

"Shall any man be above justice? Above all shall that man be above it, who can commit the most extensive injustice? When great crimes were committed he was for punishing the principal as well as the Coadjutors." - George Mason

The president led us into the Iraq war on the basis of unproven assertions without evidence. He embraced a radical doctrine of preemptive war unprecedented in our history, and he failed to build a true international coalition. Therefore, American taxpayers are bearing almost all the cost: a colossal $120 billion and rising. More importantly, American troops are enduring almost all the casualties: tragically, 500 killed and thousands more wounded.- Nancy Pelosi - Democratic Response to the 2004 State of the Union

"The President must certainly be punishable for giving false information to the Senate. He is to regulate all intercourse with foreign powers, and it is his duty to impart to the Senate every material intelligence he receives. If it should appear that he has not given them full information, but has concealed important intelligence which he ought to have communicated, and by that means induced them to enter into measures injurious to their country, and which they would not have consented to had the true state of things been disclosed to them, -- in this case, I ask whether, upon an impeachment for a misdemeanor upon such an account, the Senate would probably favor him." - James Irdell

I believe that the president`s leadership and the actions taken in Iraq demonstrate an incompetence in terms of knowledge, judgment and experience. - Nancy Pelosi

"The Executive will have great opportunitys of abusing his power; particularly in time of war when the military force, and in some respects the public money will be in his hands. Should no regular punishment be provided it will be irregularly inflicted by tumults and insurrections." - Edmund Randolph

“When you withhold funds from enforcing a decision of the Supreme Court, you are in fact nullifying a decision of the Supreme Court,“This is in violation of the respect of separation of powers in our Constitution.” - Nancy Pelosi

"The doctrine of impeachments is of high import in the constitutions of free states. On one hand, the most powerful magistrates should be amenable to the Law: on the other hand, elevated characters should not be sacrificed merely on account of their elevation. No one should be secure while he violates the constitution and the laws: every one should be secure while he observes them. . . ." - James Wilson

"It has too often happened that powers delegated for the purpose of promoting the happiness of a community have been perverted to the advancement of the personal emoluments of the agents of the people; but the powers of the President are too well guarded and checked to warrant this illiberal aspersion." - Edmond Randolph

“There is nothing in the performance of this Congress in its four years since President Bush has been president that says that they will exercise proper oversight,” Nancy Pelosi

". . . those offences which proceed from the misconduct of public men, or, in other words, from the abuse or violation of some public trust. They are of a nature which may with peculiar propriety be denominated POLITICAL, as they relate chiefly to injuries done immediately to the society itself."- Alexander Hamilton

“The criminal indictment of Majority Leader Tom DeLay is the latest example that Republicans in Congress are plagued by a culture of corruption at the expense of the American people.” - Nancy Pelosi

"[I]f the President be connected, in any suspicious manner, with any person, and there be grounds to believe he will shelter him, the House of Representatives can impeach him; they can remove him if found guilty; . . ." - James Madison

“Americans will no longer tolerate the Republicans` continued abuses of power and catering to corporate special interests,” - Nancy Pelosi

“The Republicans` lack of transparency and willingness to abuse their power is undermining democracy, ... It should be of grave concern to all Americans that their privacy could be invaded by such an outrageous provision.”Nancy Pelosi

“I think it brings shame to the House for this Congress to be engaged in a cover-up when it comes to revealing what`s happening in Iraq,” - Nancy Pelosi

". . . subject him to impeachment himself, if he suffers them to perpetrate with impunity high crimes or misdemeanors against the United States, or neglects to superintend their conduct, so as to check their excesses." - James Madison

And finally, in what appears to be the greatest hypocrisy and lie of all Madame Speaker

As Democrats, we must convince the American people that we know them, we work for them every day, we understand their hopes, their dreams, the aspirations they have for their children, and the challenges that they face. That`s why it`s absolutely urgent that we win the election, that we take the country in a new direction for every one of those people -- for working families in America. Let us then go forth as a Democratic Party that is known as the champion of working people in our country.- Nancy Pelosi - Annual 2006 Take Back America Conference Jun 14, 2006

My fellow Americans, you are the people we work for. These are the values we stand for. These are the priorities we fight for: prosperity, opportunity and security. Nancy Pelosi - Speech to the Democratic National Convention Jul 30, 2004

"I`m not unsympathetic to the concern people have -- I hear it all over the country. People here have said to me, `Well, people on the left want the president to be impeached.` I hear it across the board across the country. It`s not just the left," Nancy Pelosi 2007

"Impeachment if off the table" - Nancy Pelosi

"Not but that crimes of a strictly legal character fall within the scope of the power. . but that it has a more enlarged operation, and reaches, what are aptly termed political offenses, growing out of personal misconduct, or gross neglect, or usurpation, or habitual disregard of the public interest in the discharge of the duties of political office. These are so various in their character, and so indefinable in their actual involutions, that it is almost impossible to provide systematically for them by positive law. They must be examined upon very broad and comprehensive principles of public policy and duty. They must be judged of by the habits, and rules, and principles of diplomacy, or departmental operations and arrangements, or parliamentary practice, of executive customs and negotiations, of foreign, as well as domestic political movements; and in short, by a great variety of circumstances, as well those, which aggravate, as those, which extenuate, or justify the offensive acts, which do not properly belong to the judicial character in the ordinary administration of justice, and are far removed from the reach of municipal jurisprudence." - James Wilson - Commentaries on the Constitution, 1833
