Impeachment proclamation unanimously adopted by the CA Dem Party

Submitted by davidswanson on Tue, 2006-05-02 12:41.

The California Democratic Party calls for the immediate investigation of the President and Vice President of the United States for committing the following alleged acts:

Misleading Congress and the American public about an unproven and unrealized threat to national security by Iraq in order to justify war thereby violating the federal anti-conspiracy statute and the False Statement Accountability Act.

Ordering the National Security Agency to conduct electronic surveillance of American citizens without seeking warrants from the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Court of Review, as required by law.

Violating the “Federal Torture Act” Title 18 United States Code, Section 113C and the UN Torture Convention and the Geneva Convention, which are U.S. law under Article VI of the U,S. Constitution.

Ordering indefinite detention of accused persons without access to legal counsel, without charge, and without the opportunity to appear before a civil judicial officer to challenge the detention, all in violation of U.S. law and the Bill of Rights.

Sufficient questions have been raised in public discourse, in the press, and on the floor of Congress to warrant an investigation of these and other alleged crimes, misdemeanors, and acts of misfeasance and malfeasance, and to merit an investigation into the propriety of impeachment.

Now that our California Democratic Party is calling for this investigation, why are our Democratic representatives in Congress not all co-sponsoring HR 635? For example, is Doris Matsui even aware of how many of her constituents were at the Crest Theatre on April 29 demanding impeachment? I have contacted her office several times now, but have yet to see her listed as supporting HR 635.
