I like it and it is needed more now than ever before.

QUOTE

Recall of an elected official is a cumbersome business; voting them out is far less so. But what that always boils down to is a lack of specifics as to why a particular politician should be tossed out on his butt. With one simple phrase, Norquist has given us a rallying cry and a justifying charge of generalized misconduct without having to enumerate all the various and sundry insults and violations.

We the people find you in contempt of your constituents, and therefore unfit to continue serving in the office to which we elected you.

A new battle cry for fed up Americans

Dear Lord, lest I continue in my complacent ways, help me to remember that someone died for me today. And if there be war, help me to remember to ask and to answer "am I worth dying for?" - Eleanor Roosevelt

The ultimate result of shielding men from the effects of folly is to fill the world with fools.
-- Herbert Spencer, English Philosopher (1820-1903)

I like the "We the people find you in contempt of your constituents, and therefore unfit to continue serving in the office to which we elected you" statement. I will pass that around.

Time for some fresh blood in the system. I believe that the founding fathers felt that you serve your country for a few years and then return to a private life. Not become a career politician and gum up the works.

It was to be a public duty to briefly serve one's country, not a life long place at the public trough! Maybe, we will change this mentality! Sl�inte,�� Patch��

Say two four year terms at the most. We could use system like that up here. Unlike yours where the Pres. is limited to two terms our PM can be in power as long as his party is elected and he remains it's head. The only way our PM can be removed is if the party calls a leadership convention and he is defeated. Camac

I have decided that I must work to effect this change for my childrens, grandchildrens future and beyond. In our respective governments if enough people want change and work as a group, change will come. Some people do not have that luxury. Sl�inte,�� �Patch��
