Anyone out there in cyberland know what procedures are needed to empeach a senator?

Anyone have a list of the YEA voters on the Paulson Plan.

I think we need to remove 74 Senators from our government...

Before the election...

Impeachment is the first of two stages in a specific process for a legislative body to forcibly remove a government official. The second stage is conviction.

Impeachment is a rare term that can be misunderstood. A typical misconception is to confuse it with direct and involuntary removal from office; in fact, it is only a legal statement of charges, paralleling an indictment in criminal law. An official who is impeached faces a second legislative vote (whether by the same body or another), which determines conviction, or failure to convict, on the charges embodied by the impeachment. Most constitutions require a supermajority to convict. The word "impeachment" derives from Latin roots expressing the idea of becoming caught or entrapped, and has analogues in the modern French verb empêcher (to prevent) and the modern English impede. Medieval popular etymology also associated it (wrongly) with derivations from the Latin impetere (to attack). (In its more frequent and more technical usage, impeachment of a person in the role of a witness is the act challenging the honesty or credibility of that person.)

The process should not be confused with a recall election. A recall election is usually initiated by voters and can be based on "political charges", for example mismanagement, whereas impeachment is initiated by a constitutional body (usually a legislative body) and is usually based, but not always, on indictable offenses. The process of removing the official is also different.

Well then since we know that our legislative is not going to act on any such thing.

Is it possible to petition the supreme court for redress of the delibrate actions of 74 senators to ignore the american voice of reason?

i am not sure but i think you need to have a recall election

Impeachment is not the way and won't work.

Recall is an option but is very difficult.

The best way, as identified in the Constitution is to VOTE them out of office.

I think we need to employ term limits up in there.

you think they would let that happen

it would be good for the people

but it would put them out of a job

i am down for the revolution! I am damn certain Y'all got the Guns!!!!

There must be first a peacefull solution...

I will try everything I can before I would resort to an act of violence.

Sorry it was a joke. I forget how serious people can get. Sorry

I think you'd be shocked to know how many Americans are starting to look towards the violent solution...

Those who make peaceful revolution impossible make violent revolution inevitable...

war that is a good summary

If you wish to remove an elected official you can circulate petitions to recall the official. The legal requirements in your state should be available through your Secretary of States office or Attorney General's office depending on where you live. A quick call or search on the net is a good way to find out.

Michigan Compiled Laws describes the requirements for a recall effort.

Once the signatures are collected the SoS counts the signatures and the issue goes forward if the legal number of signatures of registered voters are verified.

There are a few good sites that on-line that describe how government works. I suggest everyone has a look.
