I am delighted to announce that Earl Andrew Washburn is no longer a Senator, effective five minutes ago.

Carry on.

On what grounds do you make that claim?

Who are your "associates"?  What is their constitutional justification for this position?

Their justification is that the power to fire Senators does not exist in the constitution.

That is not a valid reason.

I don't see where you would have authority to either.  If this is because of the no two office rule, then he would no longer be co-GM as he could not have legally accepted that office.

Hmm. This is a little odd, but I can't say that I oppose your right to make the decision.

There's no precedent, but I don't see a constitutional reason why this decision is not valid.

There is nothing in the constitution giving the President this right. Atlasia is not a fascist country, the President cannot fire Senators on a whim.

Clearly the President is insane, and I urge the Senate to decide if whether or not he is fit to remain as President.

That is a disgusting personal attack.  If you were still in the Senate, I would support your expulsion.

You are insane, Mr. President. If you were an honourable man, you would resign immediately.

You are insane Mr. President, it is a statement of fact. I for one am glad they are making you ill, perhaps you can take sick leave so that you may not bring the country down with your proposed future endeavours.

What proof do you have for this accusation?  You should be glad that Atlasia does not have libel laws, Mr. Former Senator.

I for one am glad they are making you ill, perhaps you can take sick leave so that you may not bring the country down with your proposed future endeavours.

Your wish that people become sick is frankly the most disgusting thing I have ever read on this forum.  And what "future endeavours" are you referring to?

Your wish that people become sick is frankly the most disgusting thing I have ever read on this forum.  And what "future endeavours" are you referring to?

It is my belief that you have gone insane for a number of reasons:

(a) you claim to have fired me, and have the right to do so
(b) you continue to believe that because of this, I am no longer a Senator
(c) you were once a good friend of mine, but suddenly you have turned your back against me
(d) you attempted to blackmail me into posting a resolution
(e) you continue to embarrass yourself by keeping up this charade.

Now, I am sorry that I wished you to become sick, but the point is you are not of sound mind to be President at the moment.

You know, I hope this was orignally intended as a parody of Ronald Reagan's "five minutes" gaffe, but if so, Ebowed',s delay in admitting to the joke has made the potential humor go flat.

I do not see the authority for the President to do this either.  Earl should no longer be co-GM.

This all seems like one big joke, especially considering Ebowed',s silly "you are literally making me ill" posts.
