NEVER TOLERATE TYRANNY!....Conservative voices from the GRASSROOTS.

If "We the People" don't want to wait for elections to remove US congressmen, how do we do it?

NJ Court OKs Tea Party Group's Bid to Oust Senator

Trenton, N.J. (AP)
- A New Jersey appeals court is allowing a conservative tea party group
to proceed with an effort to throw a Democratic U.S. senator out of
office.

The three-judge panel Tuesday ordered the secretary of state to accept
the group's petition seeking to recall Sen. Robert Menendez. That
allows the tea party activists to begin collecting the 1.3 million
voter signatures they need to get a recall on the ballot.

The court set aside the larger question of whether voters have a constitutional right to recall a federal lawmaker.

New Jersey is among 18 states that allow recalls of statewide elected
officials. There is no right to recall congressmen and senators under
the U.S. Constitution.

The court says it would take up that question if the petition drive succeeds.

It appears the "NEW" congress, after the November elections, will have to add creating
a "Recall of U.S. Congressmen Amendment" to their TO-DO list.
It'd be great if they made it retro-active!

Comment by Barbara Payne on March 22, 2010 at 12:14pm: First, get a group of Lawyers, Citizens and start in your area to start impeachment proceedings.
Next: get a list of "greivances" and send them, registered mail to your reps.
3rd: IF no response then this is the last and most peaceful and LAWFUL result:
If money is wanted by Rulers who have in any manner oppressed the People, they may retain it until their grievances are redressed, and thus peaceably procure relief, without trusting to despised petitions or disturbing the public tranquility. Journals of the Continental Congress, 1:105-113
ALso in the mean time, you can LEGALLY FILE married and nine on your taxes. Yes, you might owe, but if the new tax hikes are going to start soon, we will need to keep all our money that we can.
This is not, I repeat, is not BREAKING THE LAW!! It is our Constitutional right to do this!!
We must do this!!!
