George Pataki promised new yorkers a 25 percent state tax Cut add in the con tract with americas Promise of Federal tax cuts for families and you can go shopping in the Gin Grich Bull Market on margin. 7qime.what s off with by Paul Craig Roberts Scripps Howard of that the republicans finally have some Cloghn Congress they should immediately take up the real business be fore the country impeachment of the Cabinet officers who Are practising extortion usurping legislative authority and running roughshod Over the Law of the land and due process. The first order of business has nothing to do with line item vetoes balanced budget amendments Wel fare Reform or the retirement age of social Security but with articles of impeachment against attorney general Janet Reno assistant attorney general Duval Patrick Hud Secretary Henry Cisneros assistant Hud Secretary Roberta Achtenberg Epa head Carol Browner and the secretaries of the army and defense who preside Over the corps of engineers. All of these officials Are guilty of serious impeach Able offences. Reno presided Over the murder of 80 people in Waco Texas but even worse she is presi Ding Over the murder of Law and due process. She and her assistant Patrick Are forcing Banks into quota lending by threatening them with civil rights lawsuits when no Law is being violated. As Cornell University Law professor Jonathan Macey has said the government s willingness to proceed with Liti gation in the absence of evidence of discrimination is scandalous in a nation that purports to be governed by the Rule of  scandals require remedies not an irresponsible Congress that stands idly by while regulators create Law by coerced consent decrees. The Constitution does not give the Justice department the right to make Law. That right belongs to the people and it is exercised through Congress. Usurpers must be dealt with harshly or  will cease to live under account Able government Cisneros and his assistant Achtenberg cry out for impeachment. They have created and funded a new Federal spending program that has neither been authorized nor appropriated by Congress. Hud s new office of aids housing is entirely the creature of the whims of regulators. Cisneros and his assistant Are asserting a divine prerogative that strikes at the heart of accountable government and the Power of Congress. A second article of impeachment can be drawn against Achtenberg for her attempts to tear the first amendment out of the Constitution and illegally prosecute protestors in Berkeley calif., who did not kowtow to her ideology. The fact that Achtenberg reluctantly backed off under pressure Means Noth ing. We Don t cease to prosecute armed Bank Rob Bers who drop their demands for Money when the police arrive. Epa officials Are impeachable for their repeated violations of the takings clause of the Constitution and for prosecuting people and imprisoning them on the basis of wetlands regulations that have no statutory basis. Wetlands regulations have been created out of thin air and this has been publicly acknowledged both by president Clinton and by two u. S. Senators Max Baucus d-mont., and John Chafee r-r.i., who have called for legislation that would codify the regulations and thus legalize Epa s Ille Gal actions. This is lawlessness writ Large and it de mands impeachment. The same article of impeachment must include the secretaries of the army and defense who have turned Blind eyes to the army corps of engineers complicity in Epa Star chamber proceedings. Once the regulators Are punished Congress can begin the impeachments of the numerous Federal judges who have violated their oaths of office by per mitting Gross violations of the Constitution by regulators. Alfred the great set the proper example in the ninth Century when he hanged 45 judges for placing their opinions above the Law. Republicans need to understand that the questions before the country Are not the budget and appropriate level of welfare spending. Americans Don t give a Hoot about the budget. They would love it if the government went Stone broke As there is no bet Ter Way of Grid Locking the beast. Americans Don t have to worry about the currency anymore because they can hold yen or Gold. What people Are tired of is Washington s tyranny. The arrogance of this tyranny has reached the Point that people want blood. Cromwell gave them Charles head. The republicans better give us the Heads of Reno Achtenberg Patrick Cisneros and the wetlands police or the revolution against Washington will grow. The questions messes. Republicans is whether  Are going to be ruled by Law or be ruled by bureaucrats. If this Congress won t defend the people against government illegality then it too must be overthrown.
