Great idea, but follow the Constitution...

 

Statement Regarding Impeachment of Vice President Cheney

Ron Paul Speech to Congress

November 6, 2007

 

Mr. Speaker, I rise, reluctantly, in favor of the motion to table House Resolution 799, Impeaching Richard B. Cheney, Vice President of the United States, of high crimes and misdemeanors, and in favor of referring that resolution to the House Judiciary Committee for full consideration. I voted to table this resolution not because I do not share the gentleman from Ohio's desire to hold those responsible for the Iraqi debacle accountable; but rather, because I strongly believe that we must follow established protocol in matters of such importance. During my entire time in Congress, I have been outspoken in my opposition to war with Iraq and Iran. I have warned my colleagues and the administration against marching toward war in numerous speeches over the years, and I have voted against every appropriation to continue the war on Iraq.

 

I have always been strongly in favor of vigorous congressional oversight of the executive branch, and I have lamented our abrogation of these Constitutional obligations in recent times. I do believe, however, that this legislation should proceed through the House of Representatives following regular order, which would require investigation and hearings in the House Judiciary Committee before the resolution proceeds to the floor for a vote. This time-tested manner of moving impeachment legislation may slow the process, but in the long run it preserves liberty by ensuring that the House thoroughly deliberates on such weighty matters. In past impeachments of high officials, including those of Presidents Nixon and Clinton, the legislation had always gone through the proper committee with full investigation and accompanying committee report.

 

I noted with some dismay that many of my colleagues who have long supported the war changed their vote to oppose tabling the motion for purely political reasons. That move was a disrespectful to the Constitutional function of this body and I could not support such actions with my vote.

 

I was pleased that the House did vote in favor of sending this legislation to the Judiciary Committee, which essentially directs the committee to examine the issue more closely than it has done to this point.

You can't be doing that sir.

Yes I can.

This is private....

 

Oh forget it, you know how it goes. We're right and they are wrong.

On November 5, 2007, over 37,000 people donated $4.3 to Ron Paul over the internet (AP Press). The fundraising event was organized, independent of the Ron Paul campaign, by internet users. The 5th of November was chosen based on Guy Fawkes Night and the movie V for Vendetta.

 

In 1605 Guy Fawkes was part of the Gunpowder Plot; a scheme to kill King James I and blow up the House of Parliament. The plot itself may have been occasioned by the realisation by Protestant authorities and Roman Catholic recusants that the Kingdom of Spain was in far too much debt and were fighting too many wars to assist Roman Catholics in the South of Britain (sound familiar?) [wikipedia]. On November 5, 1605, the Gunpowder Plot was foiled by authorities. Every year, some countries (e.g., UK, New Zealand, and Canada) celebrate the foiling of the Gunpowder plot on Guy Fawkes night. In V for Vendetta, the main character V, wears a Guy Fawkes mask and carries out the Gunpowder Plot to remind the people that it is their responsibility to hold the government accountable for abuse and corruption.

 

On November 5, 2007, Ron Paul supporters carried out a peaceful rEVOLution to support Ron Paul in his quest for the White House for he is the country's only hope to Restore the Republic and Defend the Constitution.

 

For far too long we have been sheeps in this country- allowing the government to take our property, liberty, and freedom. It is our responsibility to ensure that the government follows the Constitution and does not violate our rights. The founding fathers remind us of this responsibility...

 

"We, the people are the rightful masters of both Congress and the courts- not to overthrow the Constitution, but to overthrow the men who pervert the Constitution" -Abraham Lincoln

 

"The tree of liberty must be refreshed from time to time with the blood of patriots and tyrants. It is it's natural manure." -Thomas Jefferson

 

They're rolling in their graves...
