Those "Lefties" & The Constitution

Humboldt County’s North Coast Journal had a piece in its issue of June 8, 2006, that might as well have been written by Karl Rove:


IMPEACHMENT, AGAIN: Humboldt County lefties are once again testing national political waters, this time from the central committee of Humboldt County's Democratic Party. The committee recently passed a resolution calling for the impeachment of President George W. Bush and Vice President Dick Cheney "for their unconstitutional wiretapping of American citizens," according to a press release dated June 4. The resolution was "overwhelmingly approved" by members of the committee on March 21 and subsequently mailed to each member of the House of Representatives and members of the Senate Judiciary Committee, including Sen. Diane Feinstein, who sits on the committee, and Sen. Barbara Boxer, who does not. Last year, the Arcata City Council voted 3-2 for a resolution demanding the impeachment or resignation of Bush and Cheney.

The article concludes:

Kay Peake, a volunteer at Republican headquarters in Eureka, had not heard about the recent resolution by Tuesday, but said she is not surprised. "It's nothing new," she said. "This is just a political statement to undermine our president. I think he's doing a fine job and he needs support from members of every party, especially in this time of war."

Those darned “lefties” and their same-old same-old drivel…how sad that this is where the NCJ relegates those believe in the standards and ideals handed down by Jefferson, Washington, Adams, and the rest of this nation’s founders in the form of the U.S. Constitution.

The people can always be brought to the bidding of the leaders . . . All you have to do is to tell them they are being attacked and denounce the pacifists for lack of patriotism."
--Hermann Göring
