the impeachment of Bush AND Chaney.

Rumor is, that Washington State and Wisconsin are also.


Since when do State legislators run the U.S. Federal Government?


Since the time of Thomas Jefferson...

Under Thomas Jefferson’s Manual for Rules of the House, such a joint
resolution [from a state], should it pass, is an alternative route to
impeachment,and would require the House Judiciary Committee to initiate
an impeachment hearing to determine whether grounds for impeachment of
the president and vice president exist.
