I Write Letters

Congressman Russ Carnahan, Missouri, 3rd District
United States House of Representatives

I am writing you concerning the revelations and admission by President Bush regarding his illegal authorization of spying on US citizens. As my Congressman, I want you to represent my support of Congressman John Conyers' resolution of censure for both President Bush and Vice-President Cheney and the creation of a select committee to investigate impeachable offenses (HR 635, HR 636, HR 637).

The following from the Articles of Impeachment against Richard M. Nixon is exactly the violation of the Constitution which President Bush has not only committed, but publicly admitted to violating and stated that he will continue to violate:

Article 2: Abuse of Power.

Using the powers of the office of President of the United States, Richard M. Nixon, in violation of his constitutional oath faithfully to execute the office of President of the United States and, to the best of his ability, preserve, protect, and defend the Constitution of the United States, and in disregard of his constitutional duty to take care that the laws be faithfully executed, has repeatedly engaged in conduct violating the constitutional rights of citizens, imparting the due and proper administration of justice and the conduct of lawful inquiries, or contravening the laws governing agencies of the executive branch and the purposes of these agencies.

Thank you from your constituent,

Disgusted in St. Louis
