The founders of this country had great vision and they saw the possibility of a Speaker working in tangent with a corrupt president, so they created a built in fail-safe: a way to unseat a Speaker of the House, while in session.
“The naming of the Speaker in the Constitution does not prevent the House from choosing a new Speaker at any time.”
“The Speaker of the U.S. House of Representatives is a constitutional officer in that the Constitution names that office in its text. U.S. Const. art. I, § 2, cl. 6 (providing that the “House of Representatives shall chuse their Speaker”).
Simply put, the Speaker is no more than a member of the House of Representatives elected by the citizens residing within a single member district just as any other member of the House.
The Speaker serves as the presiding officer at the will of the House and can therefore be removed by the will of the House members.
These are dangerous times we live in. We are watching the systematic dismantling of the Constitution of the United States of America, right before our eyes.
We must make the hard choice to accept the situation for what it is, and to choose to make the effort, at any cost, to salvage this democratic experiment before it falls to a corporatist coup from within.
These choices will involve adhering to an absolute resolution to the spirit of the Constitution and an unwavering determination to remove ALL OBSTACLES from our path, be they friend or foe; Republican or Democrat.
This administration is positioning again to send us into another illegal war of choice and it will occur before the elections of 2008.
Only the articles of impeachment and criminal indictments of this administration stand between our soldiers and that imminent threat. And only Pelosi stands between Bush and impeachment.
To restore the republic to which it was created we must remove Nancy Pelosi as Speaker of the House of Representatives. She MUST be replaced with someone who has already signed on to impeach the Vice President Dick Cheney and President George Bush for crimes against the state as well as international war crimes against all of humanity.
To ensure that this is not perceived as a partisan attack, and to ensure that there is cooperation between the parties in the effort to restore the republic, a Republican interim Vice President should be chosen to fill in after Bush and Cheney are removed.
Contact your Representatives and let them know that we are demanding the removal of the obstacles of democracy:
They Must Remove Nancy Pelosi as Speaker of the House immediately.
