"Impeach the President & Vice President" for defying the U.S. Constitution & U.S. laws:

madame defarge's diary
On Sunday, September 9th at the stroke of 12:00 p.m., the free speech corner in Highland Park, Illinois was filled with 50-60 people, all listening intently to a town crier's "Hear ye, hear ye!" call & ringing bell. Sponsored by the North Shore Women for Peace, our town crier read out a review of the rights & responsibilities of American citizens as set forth in the Constitution of the United States & called for us to "Impeach the President & Vice President" for defying the U.S. Constitution & U.S. laws:
1. by deceiving Congress, the media, & the American public about the reasons for going to war in Iraq;
2. by secret spying on Americans without search warrants or judicial review;
3. by claiming presidential authority to detain indefinitely anyone, including U.S. citizens, as 'enemy combatants' without charge, without counsel, & without the right of habeas corpus;
4. by the torture & abuse of military detainees in Guantanamo, Iraq, & Afghanistan;
5. by covert abduction of detainees to secret prisons in other countries to be interrogated through torture;
6. by undermining the Constitutional separation of powers by changing hundreds of Congressional laws with 'signing statements,' & acting in defiance of Congressional subpoenas;
7. by abusing presidential power in keeping secret their actions from legislative, judicial, & public scrutiny. >>>cont
