Quote of the Day: "It isn't illegal if the President does it." --
Richard M. Nixon
We have re-launched a campaign to impeach the President. The sample
letter below will explain why we have done this.
WARNING: Those who maintain partisan loyalties may wrongly believe we
are pursuing this campaign for partisan reasons, or out of personal
animosity for the President. Nothing could be further from the truth.
We want to make this clear . . .
Our organization is legally non-partisan, and temperamentally
ANTI-partisan.
We distrust all political parties, and all politicians.
We take NO position for partisan political reasons, for the simple
reason that we have NO partisan political loyalties, AT ALL.
Instead, we are doing this because we think the legal situation
requires it. The sample letter below will explain in more detail. But
. . . out of respect for those who may disagree . . . we are placing
this campaign on the "Heresies" page on our website. As always, you
are a free to disagree with us, and to tell us you disagree.
On the other hand, if you strongly support our position, you may want
to help us notify the media about it (see more details below the
sample letter).
The hardwired portion of this campaign's letter to Congress reads . .
. <https://secure.downsizedc.org/etp/impeach/>
Please begin impeachment proceedings against the President.
I have added the personal comments that follow. Assuming you agree
with our position, you may copy or edit my comments to send your own
letter to Congress...
I'm asking you to impeach the President because I believe he is guilty
of murder. The President ordered the military to kill an
English-speaking, natural-born American citizen, Anwar al-Awlaki
(ah-law-key), using a drone missile.
This is illegal. No citizen can be harmed by any agent of the state
except through the application of legal due process (Fifth Amendment).
President Obama violated this requirement. This makes him a murderer.
The only legal redress available when the President becomes a
criminal, is impeachment by Congress. Therefore, the rule of law
requires that you make use of this procedure now.
You may think that the President deserves the benefit of the doubt in
this case, just because he is the President. I believe the exact
opposite.
With great power comes great responsibility. The President must be
held to an even higher standard, precisely because he is the
President, and exactly because he has so much power over the lives of
others. No person with the power to order missile attacks on
individuals can operate free from the strong constraints of legal due
process.
Remember, the President, and every other agent of the state, including
all members of the military, were required to presume that Awlaki was
innocent. The President assumed otherwise, and took upon himself the
powers of a vigilante, making himself the judge, jury, and executioner
(Separation of Powers).
The President has failed to honor his legal and moral obligations, so
now the responsibility falls on you. You must use the impeachment
process to prosecute the President for murdering an American citizen.
I well understand that the thought of this action must make you
squeamish. I understand that you operate in a hypocritical and lawless
environment, where citizens are held to high legal standards, but
politicians are allowed to get away with anything and everything
(except perhaps posting naked pictures of themselves). I understand
that nearly all members of Congress violate the law, especially the
Constitution, nearly every day. But this situation is unique . . .
* An American citizen has been murdered
* Congress, for once, is not complicit in the crime
* So this is Congress's chance to be on the right side of the law for
a change
* Democrats can show that they aren't partisan hypocrites by leading
the charge
* And Republicans can show that they're through excusing wanton
criminality in the name of national security
I am waiting to see if the political class will hold itself to the
same standards you constantly apply to "mere citizens." The President
has confessed to murder. Impeach him.

P.S. A call for the impeachment of any President is considered by many
to be an overt partisan act. But it's NOT in this instance.
DownsizeDC.org President, Jim Babka, explains why on our blog.
