Whenever a political figure is involved in a scandal, there are calls for the person to resign. Initially the calls come from the other political party, but if the scandal is big enough and goes on long enough, politicians in the accused's party call for him (or her) to resign. If the political figure holds national office, the calls for resignation become a big part of the news cycle.
The calls for resignation are a sign of arrogance. You have to be full of yourself to tell other people to quit their jobs. But if people are going to call for the resignation of others, I have a list of people who should resign.
I call for Barack Obama and Joe Biden to resign. You didn't leave Iraq and you escalated the Afghanistan conflict. You didn't restore habeas corpus. You didn't end domestic spying. You ordered the assassination of American citizens. When the American people wanted change, you gave us Bush's third term.
I call for all members of Congress to resign. You let Presidents go to war without a declaration of war, which is unconstitutional. You funded the wars. You didn't restore habeas corpus. You bailed out the banks when the people were opposed to it 100 to 1. You place Israel's interests ahead of the American people's interests.
I call for all nine Supreme Court justices to resign. You illegally installed George W. Bush as President. You said corporations are people. You place the interests of corporations and police officers over the constitutional rights of individuals.
I call for all members of the CIA to resign. You have committed numerous crimes in the past 60 years, too many to list.
I call for all members of the military serving in Iraq and Afghanistan to resign. You are not keeping the American people safe. You are illegally occupying two countries that did nothing to America. Your resignations are the only way to end these criminal acts.
I call for all members of the Federal Reserve to resign. You destroyed the American middle class with your economic policies. You create money out of thin air and loan it to the American government at interest. This debt cannot be repaid because more money is owed than exists.
I call for everyone involved with what gets reported in the mainstream media to resign: reporters, editors, and corporate bigwigs. You covered up 9/11. You reported the Bush's Administration's lies that led to the Iraq conflict. You didn't even learn from your Iraq mistakes because you're doing the same thing with Iran. You ignore the crimes committed by the American and Israeli governments. You suck up to authority instead of standing up to it.
That's enough of a list for now.
