The DCCC Called Today...

...and I felt wonderful about the call. Really. Honestly. I enjoyed that call the way I've enjoyed few solici-beggars in life.

You may be asking 'Huh???' You might be thinking, 'I want whatever you were smoking/drinking/inhaling--please pass the laughing gas, we're running out."

Indeed.

What happened was this. The designated beggar from the Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee (DCCC) gave me the whole, we've turned the Congress around and are doing a great job spiel. "Attorney General Gonzales resigned because of the Congressional investigations."

Okay, that caused a moment of mental whiplash.

I heard, "The DCCC has been hampered by Republican tactics".

More mental whiplash.

"Investigations are continuing and they are effective in changing the course of the nation."

Okay, I was doing the whole Exorcist, how long can your head spin before the pea soup stains the curtains as it flies out of every available orifice, thing. And then, I got clarity.

I got my voice.

I said this.

"The DCCC would have a contribution for me if, and I repeat if and only if, they put impeachment back on the table. "

Solicitous-beggar shot back, "the investigations are proceeding and are effective. After all, Karl Rove and Atty. Gen. Gonzales are go..."

Okay. I was rude. I interrupted.

"No. The DCCC has done nothing to reign in the powers seized by this Executive that have stripped out habeas corpus, who've issued Executive Orders causing our nation to cease functioning as the Republic it was intended to be, and the DCCC has done nothing to stop the aggression of this Executive regarding warmaking. The DCCC hasn't stopped torture, they've not gotten to the bottom of lying us into a way, and they've worked with the Republicans, most recently to rescind the Fourth Amendment. The DCCC have sat on their hands presuming that the People think they can't walk and chew gum at the same time. In Nixon's days, the Congress got a lot done, and they started down the road to impeachment.

And Solici-Beggar wished me a nice day and then she hung up on me.

And that was rude.

On her part.

The thing is this. Unless and until the DCCC gets it into their pretty little heads that the doctrine of impeachment is off the table, and unless and until the DCCC understands that cooperating in a "bipartisan way" is really political speak for continuing the destruction of the Constitution and the Bill of Rights, there ain't gonna be any money from my pocket to theirs.

Period.

I call the rest of those that love the Constitution more than party politics, more than power, more than lobbying fees, more than junkets, more than the name on the door (followed by named political office), this country will experience no real change for the better.

In 2006 the DCCC campaign slogan was "Had enough?"

To this day, the slogan is still, for me, "I've had enough." Only the enough that I've had enough of is the way Speaker Pelosi sets the damned table. Or un-sets it, if you want to be completely honest. And the DCCC is with her all the way.

Hint: Main Course = Impeachment.

That's right. Impeach the lot of them. Every one of them that has left us with one assurance, for now, Constitutionally speaking. That assurance is that quartering of troops won't be in our homes without compensation. KBR and Halliburton do it better for so much more money after all.

Unless and until the DCCC, and for that matter the rest of the country realize this, we are going to have despots, thugs and imperialists running the government because people are not going to vote for people that don't get results. And results from the Mid-Terms are lacking.

They came to Congress under a mandate, as certain as a mandate could be with electronic voting in play, and were told, "Give us our government by, of and for the People back to us."

That hasn't happened. Ms. Pelosi's table is still wanting that main course. I want someone to feed the Constitution. I am, like the Constitution, hungry.

If, in future, we look back at this time in our history where we've destroyed our beloved government, ripped the Constitution to shreds, and become an imperial aggressor, all in the name of "keeping us safe from the terrrr'sts", we'll only look to Ben Franklin who said those willing to sacrifice liberty for safety deserve neither.

For now, the DCCC is getting none of my money. In fact, there is no candidate that will get one thin dime from me, nor will I ever work for, vote for, or support any candidate that puts politics ahead of principle and their own political hide over my Bill of Rights.

Like I said, it was a good conversation.

Go for it Mr. Conyers. I understand that Impeachment is on your table. Let me know where and when to show up to support that move.

Ms. Pelosi, without impeachment so as to reign in the imperial, despotic powers seized by this President and Vice President pursuant to Executive Order, your table is bare, my Constitution is in shreds and frankly my liberty is in jeopardy from the actions of my own government. I cannot support any more of that.

Ever.

In case you're wondering, Ms. Pelosi, I am sitting at an empty table. And I am hungry.
