Reverse Impeachment

Citizens belonging to the “Stop Government Stupidity” (SGS) grassroots organization have proposed a new law that they call Reverse Impeachment Jeopardy.  The law would stipulate that any politician who initiates meritless impeachment proceedings that waste the country’s money and divert the country’s attention from important business will automatically be impeached himself/herself.  The offenders would also lose their lucrative pension benefits in the reverse impeachment process, and find themselves actually having to go back to work, real work, to earn a living.

Opponents argue that such a radical move would prevent anyone from wanting to come forward to try and toss out a legitimate creep.  They say, if it had been enacted 50 years ago, then Nixon would have completed his term and Haldeman might have been elected the 38th president with Liddy as his running mate.  Jimmy Carter would have gone back to the peanut farm.

SGS firmly believes that the Washington impeachment madness needs to stop.  This item is a key element in their 10-point Stupidity Reduction plan…which includes such things as congressional term limits, frozen pay for all government workers, moving IRS administrative functions to a 3rd party outfit in Southeast Asia, and the prevention of lawyers from ever being able to run for any kind of office. Stay tuned.
