We hear a great deal of campaign rhetoric about “change” – the need to take the country in a “new direction”. Many references are made to the misdeeds of the Bush administration and its failed policies.

Why do we hear nothing as an expression of the oath of office taken by the Senators to “defend the Constitution” calling for immediate hearings and investigations into the many credible allegations of impeachable offense and Constitutional violation leveled against the President and Vice President?

Do the candidates hope to inherit the illegally expanded powers of the Presidency asserted by Bush and Cheney?

The impeachable offences alleged against Bush/Cheney are more serious than those brought against Richard Nixon, and certainly of more consequence than those brought against Bill Clinton.

Remember Barbara Jordan –

“My faith in the Constitution is whole, it is complete, it is total. I am not going to sit here and be an idle spectator to the diminution, the subversion, the destruction of the Constitution.”

When the President do over-reach, the Constitution say you must impeach!
