When is this “Resolution for Impeachment” going to be filed? Or is it just wishful thinking?

Wishful thinking unless the tea party yet again wakes them up and enough people act in post #29.

You do know that Articles of Impeachment, if they were to be written, would originate in the House, not the Senate, right? The Senate Judiciary Committee would not be involved at all.

Impeachment arises in the House of Representatives, not the Senate. Lamar Smith is Chairman of the House Judicary Committee. The Senate gets involved in impeachment only after articles of impeachment are passed by the House. The Senate then tries the case.

My bad. I had the wrong thing stuck in my head because I remember hearing something about certain things never getting past Leahy.

Won’t hurt to contact them all I suppose.

CONTACT: Congressman Lamar Smith

2409 Rayburn House Office Building Washington, DC 20515
ph: 202-225-4236
fax: 202-225-8628

State clearly and politely on the voice mail or to whomever answers the phone:

That the Upcoming President Obama Executive Order: Entitled the “Disclosure of Political Spending By Government Contractors,”Is Issuing an Executive Order that usurp’s Congress’s exclusive power to make legislation as detailed in Article 1, Section 1, Sentence 1 of the Constitution of the United States and if President Obama’s signs this such said Executive Order; articles of Impeachment SHALL be drawn by The Judiciary Committee.

Sensenbrenner of Wisconsin is a hot-button type of guy. I see from the committee website that he is second in senority to Lamar Smith (who I like - used to be my rep before I moved and also redisticting happened - but he’s a cool customer not a hothead like Sensenbrenner). For this we need to get a hot-button type guy on our side. I suggest everyone contact Jim Sensenbrenner’s office seperately and see if he will get on this.

Good idea. We also have Jackson-Lee,Waters and Conyers.
Obama could admit he committed treason and eat a dead baby and they would protect him.How many votes is needed to impeach how many votes need to remove?

...a pending executive order would require companies doing business with the federal government to disclose political contributions to independent groups, but would not place the same requirement on public employee unions or federal grant recipients that typically donate to Democrats.

It's an outrage...another typical liberal elite totalitarian piece of thuggery.

When we said “Free Speech”, we didn’t mean for you.

Now pay your taxes - the government needs the money. :)

Time to get the word out and get busy.

a pending executive order would require companies doing business with the federal government to disclose political contributions to independent groups, but would not place the same requirement on public employee unions or federal grant recipients that typically donate to Democrats.

Unions aren’t really the problem anymore than guns are a problem: it is the people controlling unions and guns that are the problem.
