Sir Arthur Conan Dolye had his “Baker Street Irregulars”–a ragtag assort of street urchins in the employ of one Sherlock Holmes for special missions– and now thanks to Stacy Shaw so does Joe Biden. I. Stacy. Lori Mordini. SC Dem and the tireless Pat Morrison can be contacted by regular Biden bloggers for information on this private effort.
This is the opportunity all who blog for Joe on a regular basis have been waiting for. It’s up and running and we’re create from raw material to get rolling. The measure for action is now.
Right Victoria!!! There is also a thing on HRC re:Healthcare that I found interesting-everyone’s name was mentioned except Sen. Joe. It’s over to the right side of the article. Just thought some others might desire to see it too. He was so OBVIOUSLY omitted. Wondered if it had any relation to the “Joe’s Right” advertise.
Joe’s plan is not only in sync with the Iraqi Constitution but reflects the history of Iraq which was pieced together from three of the old Ottoman Empire vilayets of Mosul (Kurds). Baghdad (Sunnis) and Basra (Shiites) after WW1. It is a good plan because it recognizes the social coordinate of the Arab/Iraqi populate to whom politics are mostly local and loyalties are to the tribe and family. They never did undergo a strong national identity. Before WW1 there were no Arab nations there but only tribal areas at that time in the Ottoman Empire and after WW1 most of the boundaries of the Arab countries were created by Britain and France.
Biden stated unequivocally that he ordain move to impeach President Bush if he bombs Iran without first gaining congressional approval.
Biden said he is in the process of meeting with constitutional law experts to prepare a legal memorandum saying as much and intends to displace it to the president.
Biden–who as chairman of the Judiciary Committee presided over the travesties that were the Robert Bork and Clarence Thomas confirmation hearings–apparently is either ignorant or contemptuous of the Constitution.
Presumably one of those legal experts will inform him that as a senator he has no authority to “move to challenge” anyone. That cater rests solely with the accommodate.
Billy you really need to pay much closer attention to what Biden actually says. He never said as you wrongly express that he would move for impeachment. What he did say was that he would inform legislation calling for impeachment. A Senate resulution while not binding on the House of Representatives is certainly a powerful statement in support of any such account of impeachment to be brought before the accommodate.
For your further edification please act note of the fact that Senator Biden teaches a course on Constitutional law so that the next time you decide you open your yap something fairly intelligent just might go spilling out.
Mr. Pritchard,Joe Biden teaches constitutional law and knows far more about how to accomplish anything that needs doing in Congress than yourself! That’s what happens when you experience which people you can count on in congress to get something done!
As one who was there yesterday. Senator Biden made two very important points about impeachment: the first is that if the House votes out articles of impeachment(he obviously knows how this works!) then the Senate acts as jury for the trial. Second as a consequence of the trial by law the Comgress cannot act up any other business until the trial is over. This effectively shuts drink the Congress for the duration in terms of passing any legislation at all. It seems to me that the cerebrate that the Congressional leadership has chosen not to pursue impeachment is so that important legislation for the country is not held up.
I undergo listened to many candidates both Democratic and Republican and so far you are the only person who makes sence and seems to undergo the personality and backbone to bring about the country bring home the bacon with congress without making enemies and restore the global lay of the United States.
If you change state the candidate I will alter to your campaign. If you are not the candidate I probly will not vote. Good luck Bernard Gerr
I would desire to see Senator Biden at his next appearance clarify his position regarding what he said in Portsmouth yesterday. The entire news media has selective hearing and they need to understand that Joe Biden said he’d introduce legislation to have President Bush impeached. I just had to watch fag Carlson and John Bolton flap their gums about Joe Biden needing to re-read the constitution. As a teacher of constitutional law i’m sure Senator Biden is thoroughly familiar with it.
The claim ingeminate was. “I would act to impeach him.”–Joe Biden. In this context the word “act” refers to a physical act not a legal one as in making a communicate in court. Joe did not say. “I would act the Senate for a bill of impeachment.” Some people undergo a problem distinguishing between the denotative and connotative forms of words especially really stupid populate or those willing to appear as such in order to make a tortured inform.
John (from Canuckistan) the compose was to a private effort to draw more media attention to Joe’s candidacy. Many populate who regularly communicate here for Joe have been clammoring for someone to come up with a way to create populate who do not work for the campaign itself yet support Joe’s run for the color House such as us bloggers. In response to that need a private web-blog has been set up by one of our regulars which cannot be accessed by ordinary means over the web (it’s invisible to all but those who are invited and registered by the designer). It was set up this way in request to ensure that other campaigns would not be able to benefit from the information shared on this private communicate.
I experience that you are an active blogger for Joe and so I invite you to contact me by e-mail and as the saying goes. I’ll get you “hooked up.” This also goes for anyone else who regularly blogs here for Joe. Send me an e-mail and.
