Can we recall Bayh?

[PeaShooter]

Does the Indiana constitution allow for the recall of senators? If it does, I suggest that we start the process to recall Bayh while we still have Daniels in office to appoint his replacement.

 

[Josed]

I like that idea. Lets send him packing before the 2010 elections. Then see if we can send Barron Hill back into retierment.

Sorry, Indiana does not have recall provision in it's laws.

But, there is a guy running for Bayh's seat that is in the Indiana legislature, and who could introduce such a bill.

Don't expect it to go anywhere right now. The established parties don't want anyone upsetting their apple card of climbing the party ladders to go from one level of governance to another.

Giving us people the ability to actually hold them accountable outside of the normal party-controlled elections isn't very popular inside the establishment.

It never ceases to amaze me when people used to tell me they voted for a repub president and still voted for the lying sack of dung who would be a shoe salesman were it not for his daddy.

You mean his daddy, the elder lying sack of dung?

I have said it before and will say it again...EVAN BAYH is going NOWHERE. If republicans are dumb enough to keep voting in Richard Lugar then they have no room to complain about Evan Bayh.

Id like to see an average joe type of guy so to say in there ya know someone who HAS worked in the real world and gets it. Honestly I don't know awhole lot about "politics" but I know my common sense at age 27 would be a hell of alot better than what we have now! I say vote me in and as the people we will fight for term limits, work on halting lobbing which creates corruption, a salary cap AND when ANY one that works for the American People want a raise it will be a state vote up to the people if they get a raise and how much, hell I think I will even throw in a vote to DECREASE pay. Once we get corruption cleaned up and all these donkey and elephant asses out of here we can be free once again. Yes you can vote me out if you like as well. One thing to remember though if I make everyone happy I'm not doing my job and if everyone hates me I'm not doing my job, so basically all the people that mouch off of us tax payers will hate me and thats fine by me!

^^ This

Put me in a dark room with both Lugar & Bayh, then give me a baseball bat. I guarantee I won't be able to tell the difference between them.

Ah...'twould be fun though, amirite!?

I'll bite.

Why do you believe he's going nowhere?

-He's unbeatable?
-The election system is rigged?
-We really live in the MATRIX and our election outcomes are all just a program?
-He's really a Cthulu, so it doesn't matter?
-all of the above?

 

[TopDog]

If only we could. That jerk keeps sending me emails that basically say we have to stop the out of control spending. For crying out loud he is on the team that did the out of control spending. I have a message for Bayh:

Stop peeing on us and telling us its raining.

He is unbeatable in Indiana. There is no candidate on the Republican side who has any real popularity that will run against him. When I say popular Republican I mean Mitch Daniels and Mike Pence. They are the only two with remotely enough popularity and I don't think Daniels can beat him in a senate race but he has the best shot in Indiana.

Hold onto your socks, then.

2010 is going to be a very different year in politics.

I heared on the radio today 2 doctors had a discussion with him about how bad the health care bill would be on the doctors and all he said was "His party needed this" well what about the people he reps.

You have some of the right ideas, however you are ineligible to be elected to the US Senate at this time.

US Constitution, Article I, Sec. 3 reads, in part, "...No Person shall be a Senator who shall not have attained to the Age of thirty Years, and been nine Years a Citizen of the United States,and who shall not, when elected, be an Inhabitant of that State for which he shall be chosen."


Sorry to rain on your parade. Keep those ideas and ideals, though, and come back in 2012 for Lugar's seat. Last I heard, he's not running for it again.

Blessings,
Bill

I listen to Greg Garrison on WIBC fm radio, it will take too long, just fire him in 2010

 

[Gunny~CQB]

Can 'em both
I have not gotten a reply from either one of the puppets that I sent letters and faxes to. Too much Kool-Aid drinkin'. Both are operating under the "Hear No Evil, See No Evils, Speak No Evil, policies of the current ad min, unless of course they can blame it on Bush. They are just waiting it out and hoping we'll go away and forget about it.
Lugar cost us the National CCW recognition last fall, lest we not forget that also.

We are screwed by the 17th amendment unfortunatly. Around 1995 or so a bunch of states banded togehter to pass recall laws. The Supreme Court shot it down saying that since these *******es are voted in by the people the states cannot remove them (go for progress). Supposedly there is a way, regarding a trillion or so signatures and a team of attorneys, but I'm fairly sure Indiana has no method installed for removal.
