   "Petition to Remove Nancy Pelosi from the position of Speaker of the House of Representatives Whereas Speaker of the House of Representatives, Nancy Pelosi, having failed to fulfill her oath of office as a United States Representative from the State of California, to “protect and defend the Constitution of the United States” by abusing the power of her office as Speaker of the House to prevent the consideration of Articles of Impeachment – impeachment being the Constitutionally mandated process to hold the Executive accountable for violations of the Constitution, the laws passed by Congress, and international treaties having the force of law under the Constitution, and Whereas Nancy Pelosi, as Minority Leader, prior to the mid-term elections of 2006, publicly stated that “Impeachment is off the table”, a politically partisan strategy designed to avoid activating Republican fears that might have disadvantaged her party’s candidates in the election, and Whereas Speaker of the House, Nancy Pelosi continues to obstruct the Constitutionally mandated process of impeachment in furtherance of a politically partisan strategy designed, as she has repeatedly stated -to pass the Democratic Party’s legislative agenda in preference to fulfilling her Oath of Office to “protect and defend the Constitution of the United States”, and Whereas Speaker of the House of Representatives, Nancy Pelosi’s continued use of the power of her office to compel other Democrats - Members of the House of Representatives - to withhold their support for impeachment, in violation of their oaths of office, corrupts the most basic functions of the separation of powers designed by the framers and set down in our Constitution, Therefore: we, the undersigned concerned citizens urge the Democratic Party to take action to the end that Nancy Pelosi be removed from the position of Speaker of the House of Representatives and sanctioned for her obstruction of the Constitutionally mandated investigations and impeachment proceedings occasioned by the many credible and well documented allegations against George W. Bush and Richard “Dick” Cheney. Further: we pledge to withhold financial support for any candidate, office holder, or organization such as the DSCC, DCCC, or DNC seen to be failing in their responsibility to the Constitution in calling for immediate investigations into the actions of George W. Bush and Richard Cheney leading to the possible filing of articles of impeachment. "
