Petition Circulating to Recall "Louisiana Purchase" Corruptocrat Sen. Mary Landrieu
Posted by Jim Hoft on Friday, January 8, 2010, 4:51 AM
A petition to recall Corruptocrat Senator Mary Landrieu has been accepted for filing by the Louisiana Secretary of State. It was reported this week that Landrieu took Obamacare bribes from Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid to bargain for national democratic support for her brother’s mayoral campaign. She also was accused of taking a $300 million bribe for her Obamacare vote.
The American Thinker reported:
The blog And So It Goes in Shreveport notes that a petition to recall Senator Mary Landrieu has been accepted for filing by the Louisiana Secretary of State. Citizens have 180 days to file enough signatures to get this on a ballot:
Via Caught Him With a Corndog, there is an active petition to recall Senator Mary Landrieu:
“On Dec. 29, a recall petition was filed by Ruben Leblanc of New Iberia, for the recall of Mary Landrieu. Sec. of State Jay Darden stated that he WILL accept the filing.”
Kinda like chicken fried bacon, this limited time offer won’t last. Citizens have 180 days starting Dec. 29 so get with it today if you would like to see Me-ry “Louisiana Purchase” Landrieu hit the bricks before her service is up.
Go here for details and here to see the case for a recall.
If the story reported by The Dead Pelican this weekend holds true, that she used her vote for Obamacare to bargain for national democratic support for her brother’s mayoral campaign, I’d say more than a recall is in order.

Too delicious for words! If there are enough signers, the Dems had better start watching their backs. The people are awake and they are pi$$ed!

Told ya, We surround them. The pen IS mightier than the sword. This is my preffered method of revolt.

Ouch, now that’s some retribution I can sink my teeth into! It’s about time we held our crooks accountable.
Aaron Gardner commented:
There is no provision in the Constitution for allowing the recall of Congressmen. With that in mind, I don’t think this petition will amount to anything.
Tom63010 commented:
Be sure to send this to anyone you know in Louisiana or anyone who may know someone in Louisiana!
southernsue commented:
aaron gardner, there are a lot of things that are being done in the white house administration that are go against the constitution, such as obamacare.
i pray for my country everyday. be at the polls in 2010 and vote out the democrats and rinos.
Aaron Gardner commented:
Southernsue, I agree. But that doesn’t change what is. Just because Barry has no respect for the Constitution doesn’t mean I will follow suit.
And don’t worry, I will be at the polls. And I will continue to donate directly to candidates who deserve it.

The La. Attorney General released an official opinion saying recall is NOT possible. http://www.ag.state.la.us/Shared/ViewDoc.aspx?Type=4&Doc=19389
The La. Secretary of State also released an official statement saying recall is NOT possible. http://louisianateaparty.ning.com/forum/topics/official-statement-on-recall
The ONLY recourse Mr. LeBlanc has is to take it to court and I wish him luck.

Ok, if its not possible then back to the contingency plan. Swords.
daryl commented:
“recall is not possible.”
It is “possible” but only every six years.
But good luck getting Louisianians to vote her out.

There is always a first time for everything — What do people here think about the actual arguments presented about recalling your Senator. If they want a parliamentary system where the majority can do anything they want with the minority, then maybe we should give them exactly that. The Constitution was specifically designed to protect the minority from the tyranny of the majority.
Specifically this link ‘here to see the case’ — http://louisianateaparty.ning.com/forum/topics/can-mary-landrieu-a-us-senator It’s interesting on it’s face, but I don’t know enough about Constitutional law to work my way through it’s arguments.
Remember it used to be the purvey of the States to select their Senators, one house for the sovereign people and one house for the sovereign States — The 17th Amendment fixed that delicate problem — We already broke that, and now have a little fiefdom permanent Senate, and unfunded mandates galore. How would you ever get this monstrosity of a health care bill through with the States paying for it if the States’ Senator reported to the Governor of the State.
I would bet if the ALCU was actually doing their job as laid out in their charter instead of being a lapdog farce for the liberals … We should examine this issue form all angles!
Another way to go at this is the get the SC to limit the scope of the commerce clasue —

Steve commented:
Louisiana is a very unique state. Not that it matters in this case but we have “Parishes” and not counties and second our laws are based off of what is called “Napoleonic code”.
You can do your own research on what that means exactly but these two articles seem to do a decent job of explaining it.

If Mr. LeBlanc proceeds he is facing an up hill battle except it’s more like a mountain. No member of Congress has EVER been recalled in the history of the United States.
In my opinion we should focus our efforts using states rights under the 10th Amendment of the US Constitution and have our State reps use what is called “nullification” to shove these stupid bills up the butts of Washington. The states have the power, resources and lawyers that can afford to take on DC. Let’s put our tax dollars to work for We The People.

If “democrat underground” with all of Soros’s money thought it had been possible and would have worked they would have had Bush and Cheney recalled and their heads displayed on pikes in the Oval Office along with their lesser Congressional enemies heads, and Al (global warming) Gore would be serving his third term.
Oh, and that link, by the way, is directly from DU.
Scott commented:
If she can’t be recalled, then she must be voted out. She comes from a dynastic poltical family. Like the Carnahan’s of MO, the Kennedy’s, the Rockefeller’s, the Bayh’s, the Bush’s. They have all turned politics into the family business.
She’s not a queen entitled to the throne. Vote these career politicians out. Bring back true representative democracy.

This is wonderful, and it should be used wherever and whenever it can. This corruption needs to be cleaned out.
Ladue Pundit commented:
I recall reading that 17 or 18 states have a recall provision in their constitutions. Missouri was not one of them, so our Old Battle Axe McCaskill has 4 more years.
In less than 10 months, the entire U.S. House of Representatives will be re-applying for their jobs.
Just yesterday Rush Limbaugh spoke of how many Democrat Senators were appointed, like NY, or ACORNed their way in, i.e., Franken in MN.
Getting rid of Dorgan, Reid, and Dodd is a start.
Keeping Bond’s seat away from the little Carnahan dyke in MO will help.
It doesn’t look good for liberals because they’ve made it so bad for Americans.
Greg commented:
In order to pay for all the liberal programs and the expansion of those on the government payroll, I propose we the people require anyone who wants to be a politician to have to pay a special “Politician Tax” on their income at the percentage rate of the National Debt to GDP. In addition, for each law or bill proposed by a politician there should be an additional tax or fee based on their income(including those who vote for it!) at the percentage rate the legislation, once passed, will add to the current budget. Maybe then, we can get back to responsible government which is for the benefit of all Americans.
Zach commented:
This is unlikely to happen, but still a great way to bring attention to what is going on with Obamacare. But we need to hope that people in Nevada remember who bought this vote in 2010.

The only problem with this, of course, is that there is no such thing as recall for members of either house of Congress.
