Swearing in meeting

We have a board member that swears up a storm at the meetings and sometimes comes drunk. The President does nothing to stop it, except to ask him to stop being disrespectful.   What as a board member can I do?

See RONR, 11th ed., pgs. 645-648 for procedures for disciplining a member for offenses occurring during a meeting. If this is the board of a larger society with a general membership, however, the maximum penalty which may be imposed by the board through such procedures is removing the member for the duration of the current meeting.

If it is desired to remove the board member permanently, check your bylaws or see FAQ #20 if they are silent.
