Dear sir,
I watched the video of your speech and I was quite moved to finally see another politician having the same understanding as the people and listening to the people. I’m glad you haven’t sold out like Madam Speaker by totally ruling out impeachment before it has even been discussed.
I am in a wheelchair and on the back of it I have a sticker stating “Impeach Bush” and everyday I have at least one person telling me that they want it to! So I know that the people want it, some representatives, including yourself and Mr. Kucinich, and a few senators know it as well. What is it going to take for the rest of Congress to listen to the people?!
I know this isn’t the greatest or longest letter you have or will receive, but it’s a letter from a person, a citizen of this great country who wants what you can start. Please don’t be like Madam Speaker and ignore your constitutional duties, our country depends on it!
Thank you for taking the time to read this, and thank you for having the courage to do what you know is right even if you are one of the only ones!
James Bouder
Another citizen for impeachment

The Disgraceful Congress Shines Once Again
Once again checks and balances and the Constitution have been thrown aside. We need to vote against any congressperson that votes "Yes" to any of these illegal bills that blatantly violate the Constitution.
America is becoming the exact opposite of what it was founded on and the ideals it is based on.
How much longer are we going to allow our representatives and leaders that trash and disregard the Constitution whenever they feel like doing so?
The Constitution clearly states: "That whenever any form of government becomes destructive to these ends, it is the right of the people to alter or to abolish it, and to institute new government, laying its foundation on such principles and organizing its powers in such form, as to them shall seem most likely to effect their safety and happiness. ...But when a long train of abuses and usurpations, pursuing invariably the same object evinces a design to reduce them under absolute despotism, it is their right, it is their duty, to throw off such government, and to provide new guards for their future security."
I know I've stated above many times before and I will continue to do so until we all have the courage to do so or until our representatives get it through their heads!
The Constitution has been disregarded far too much by the Bush administration and most of Congress for far too long. I feel that it is our right and our duty to remove them and anyone who violates the people's constitutional rights!
Maybe there is a much simpler explanation, maybe they were acting just as kids do on the last day of school. But instead of merely trashing their lockers and the school, they trashed something far more important, the CONSTITUTION!

We Need to Purge Our Government!
I just called my congressman (Rep. C.A. Ruppersberger (D-MD 2nd)) for the fifth week in a row trying to get his position on HR 333 and I finally got an answer.
To paraphrase, he's basically saying that because there's only a year and a half left in the vice president's term that impeachment proceedings would take up too much time in the House when they should be focusing on other things. Bringing home the troops, ending the war in Iraq, etc. etc. I told the woman I was talking to that impeachment would solve both of those problems but I don't think she was hearing me!
I don't understand why a representative of the people does what he thinks should be done instead of listening to the people he represents. Though the woman I was talking to said that the congressman felt like he was doing the will of the people based on the 2006 elections. I told her that the people are demanding impeachment but again, I don't think she was hearing me!
What is it going to take to get these people, the People's people, to start doing the will of the people!? I think it's going to take some people, people like us, to run as independents against the incumbents for the actual will of the majority of U.S. citizens to get done!
Democratic congressional men and women, minus a few of course, more and more are making me have disgust for the Democratic Party. No matter what Democrats say about Republicans being partisan, the same can be said about Democrats. Politics is a horrible game no matter if you're a Democrat or Republican.
Dennis Kucinich is one of the few people that I think really cares and wants to make a difference as president. It's a shame that, as I've stated before, it almost doesn't matter your ideals as long as you have the millions to run.
I also blame the media. It seems as though they've already predicted who the next president will be. All I hear every day on the news is Hillary did this or Obama said that. They don't even talk about the people who have real ideas for the country like Kucinich.
I hope there's an upset and Kucinich is elected president! I think that will be the first day that America is returned to its original ideals!
