This is... er... odd... does anyone know quite what happend?

Can't see the bit in the Constitution where it says that the Executive can expel a member of the Legislature from the Legislature though. Can't recall any precedent that might allow it either. Strange.

I was in the chat last night, so here's what happened:

Ebowed and Earl got into a spat over Earl and jcar's votes against Bono's nomination. Ebowed said that despite him not buying the argument that another office holder can not serve as GM, he would fire them from them GM position because of that, unless Earl would introduce a resolution honoring Johnny Cash. Earl refused, and basically others like Preston started saying that you can't disobey the President as they control the federal army and can sack any member from any office on the basis of that if they wanted to, and started encouraging another revolution to form a bit of a dictatorship. Earl continued to refuse to introduce the resolution, and then this post came.

This states that while the President has the ability to appoint such officers, he does not have the ability to fire anyone he chooses.
