It is unlikely that Bybee would be removed because there are a minimum of 34 bloodthirsty, pro-torture Senators in the congress. And perhaps the man is so rigid that nothing could ever make him resign, not even the disgust of his peers and shunning by decent people everywhere. But he should be impeached anyway, if only so that the Judiciary Committee can publicly consider this outrageous notion that obscure Justice Department lawyers can indemnify agents of the government from illegal activities by issuing a badly reasoned, secret memo.
Seriously, if that's the case, then we have a dictatorship, the exercise of which depends entirely on the good will of the president and the lawyers he chooses for the Justice Department.
Sign the petition --- especially if you are a Californian. (Sign it anyway, even if you're not.) This is a small grassroots effort that has a chance to work its way up the system through some specific members of congress who have to answer to liberals at the ballot box.
I like the connection being made here between the state and federal levels, too.
