As most people remember, Marks made an issue about nominees for President and Vice President voting for themselves. Since the positions come with an extra monetary benefit, he felt this might be against state ethics rules. The nominees could have simply refused to vote and let the chips fall where they may (and likely would have still 'won'), instead it turned into a circus and Camuso brought up the "rule of necessity".
The rule of necessity can apparently allow members to vote where there is a conflict of interest if not voting wouldn't leave enough non conflicted members to qualify for an official vote (believe at least 4 votes for or against a motion...someone correct me if I am mistaken)

Someone is - clearly - studying the Camuso posts!
Impeach Camuso!
impeach
Impeach means to charge someone with doing something wrong, specifically a high government official, such as the US president, a senator, or a Federal judge. Fortunately, very few presidents have had the dishonor of being impeached.
Impeach comes from the Latin impedicare "catch, entangle." If you can remember that impeach is closely related to impede, which means to slow or hinder, all you have to think of is, "Stop, thief!" to remember that impeach has to do with crime and not with stone fruit.
