Last Hope For Impeachment
If Democrats don't do it now they are clearly complicit
Today's White House admission that George W. Bush authorized the leak of, and let's not beat around the bush and call it an 'intelligence report' like the yellow bellies at Reuters, the name of CIA agent Valerie Plame as a political stunt in retaliation for Joe Wilson's refusal to be the snake oil salesman for their rigged war, is the final nail in the coffin proving we have a dictatorship in Washington.
Dictatorships are not always defined by funny hand salutes and gas chambers. The dictionary definition mentions neither, but it does mention "absolute or despotic control or power."
Is a President who argues he can do anything even if it breaks the law, and an entire cabinet who agree, exercising absolute power?
Is somebody who is above the law and whose advisors and cabinet members write memos stating he is above the law exercising absolute power?
How about totalitarianism? Definition: "a form of government in which the ruler is an absolute dictator (not restricted by a constitution or laws or opposition)."
Alberto Gonzales again put George Bush above the law today when he indicated that the administration could outright (not that they haven't been doing so in secret for decades) authorize wiretaps of domestic American citizen's phone calls without a warrant. This is a clear violation of the 4th amendment to the US Constitution.
Bush's own advisor John Yoo is on the public record as arguing that no law could prevent the President from ordering children to be tortured by means of crushing their genitals. No, this isn't the Frist fake Fox News hoax - that was his actual argument in a December 1st debate in Chicago with Notre Dame professor and international human rights scholar Doug Cassel.
Bush's Commander in Chief designation gives him the right to resort to anything, including mass genocide, if it is done in the name of protecting the American people, according to the White House. It doesn't matter if it is unconstitutional. Is this being unrestricted by laws or opposition? If the answer is yes then we are living under totalitarianism by its very definition
"If anyone in this administration was involved in it (the CIA leak), they would no longer be in this administration." White House spokesman Scott McClellan, September 29 2003.
By the White House's own admission Bush should immediately be removed from the Oval Office.
If Bush started dropping babies out of Air Force One for fun would this be grounds for impeachment?
Neo-cons and fake conservatives will continue to defend Bush to the hilt whatever he does because their childish egos are already invested in his every word and action. The invasion of the body snatchers scenario has already passed and Bush's remaining 30 odd per cent of support is likely to remain until the bitter end.
If Democrats don't initiate impeachment proceedings immediately then we know without a doubt that they are complicit and have already been promised huge kickbacks in the next two elections for keeping their noses out.
The handful of truly independent thinking Congressmen and Senators such as Ron Paul and Tom Tancredo need to be the ones to get the impeachment ball rolling, if only to expose the Democrats for the collaborators they are.

| Are you surprised? PLease, there is no way that Bush is getting the boot. And really I think it's because over time people have become less mindful and less moral if you will.So littel is shocking. I'm mostly disgusted and have a hard time feeling like there is anything we can do. I mean this war on "terror". Never in history have we or any other country fought a non- tangible. It seems like alomost any action this administration takes is supported by being a part of this invisible entity.It's like looking at the horizen. It has become never ending as the definition of what is o.k. in the name of fighting terror. And we are all supposed to be terrified to inaction. I would love to see Bush impeached, but in a way it's so beyond that. The rules are changed daily as to what is acceptable. As an individual I have no idea what to do except try to be informed and fight the little battles that are affecting us locally, and globally as far as environental issues. That's all I know how to do. The country is run by rich power mongering lunatics. How do you begin to do something about that? Other than being aware and knowing it's so wrong. I'm open to suggestions.And this is just my opinion so if it sounds simplistic that's why.Peace, Robin |

BTW those who doubt the FACT that 9/11 was an inside job..read
Operation Northwoods:
http://www.gwu.edu/~nsarchiv/news/20010430/doc1.pdf
Here is a piece:
2. A series of well coordinated incidents will be planned
to take place in and around Guantanamo to give genuine
appearance of being done by hostile Cuban forces.
a. Incidents to establish a credible attack (not in
chronilogical order):
(1) Start rumors (many). Use clandestine radio.
(2) Land friendly Cubans in uniform "over-the-fence"
to stage attack on the base.
(3) Capture Cuban (friendly) sabateurs inside the
base.
(4) Start riots near the entrance to the base (friendly
Cubans).
(5) Blow up ammunition inside the base; start fires.
(6) Burn aircraft on airbase (sabatage).
(7) Lob morter shells from outside of base into base.
Some damage to installations.
(8) Capture assault teams approaching from the sea
of vicinity of Guantanamo City.
(9) Capture militia group which storms the base.
(10) Sabotage ship in harbor; large fires -- napthalene.
(11) Sink ship near harbor entrance. Conduct funerals
for mock-victims (may be lieu of (10)).
b. United States would respond by executing offensive
operations to secure water and power supplies, destroying
artillery and mortar emplacements which threaten the base.
c. Commence large scale United States military operations.
3. A "Remember the Maine" incident could be arranged in
several forms:
a. We could blow up a US ship in Guantanamo Bay and
blame Cuba.
b. We could blow up a drone (unmannded) vessel anywhere
in the Cuban waters. We could arrange to cause such incident
in the vicinity of Havana or Santiago as a spectacular result
of Cuban attack from the air or sea, or both. The presense
of Cuban planes or ships merely investigating the intent of
the vessel could be fairly compelling evidence that the ship
was taken under attack. The nearness to Havana or Santiago
would add credibility especially to those people that might
have heard the blast or have seen the fire. The US could
follow with an air/sea rescue operation covered by US
fighters to "evacuate" remaining members of the non-existant
crew. Casualty lists in US newspapers would cause a helpful
wave of national indignation.
4. We could develop a Communist Cuba terror campaign in
the Miami area, in other Flordia cities and even in Washington.

so yea let's just completely ignore the monumentous amount of evidence PROVING the government involvement in 9/11.......
I'd rather look through mountains of evidence to full understand 9/11 than believe the 9/12 official story (which hasn't change) and watch movies about it funded by major corporations.
It isn't paranoia....it is my love for this country and to see it being destroyed on behalf of complete scum sucking blood thirsty criminals....and the complete ignorance of the masses, believe a lie, like the official story of 9/11. A lie so large and contains absolutely NO FACT, it boggles my mind that any rational human being actually believes it. But...I don't hate those who believe the official story...they have been exposed to a 500 million dollar ad campaign promoting it, so what are you gonna do, most people are dumb as hell, and do not look up any information...they are programmed to respond by using terms like "conspiracy theorist" yet couldn't even tell you the name of ONE of the flights that took off that day.
Please look up the facts, building 7, NORAD standing down, Operation Northwoods, Marvin Bush, Shanksville video and photos, the firefighter tapes, the 9/11 calls.......if you do, there's no way in hell you'd believe that the most sophisicated attack on American soil was solely due to 19 amatures with box cutters...(some still alive as reported by the BBC).
And in response to that IRAN article above:
Israel doing its own planning
Israel is preparing, as well. The government recently leaked a contingency plan for attacking on its own if the United States does not, a plan involving airstrikes, commando teams, possibly missiles and even explosive-carrying dogs.
These people are fucking SICK.....if you support our government you are a fucking ignorant motherfucker, period.
BTW...nice website....you look like one hell of a graphic designer.

| I saw a document laying out a strategy for a course of action to take place under the Kennedy administration. If that's the best evidence, than you could never prove your case in a court of law. That document is 44 years old. It is disturbing at best, but certainly not damning of the current administration. |

Best evidence?
ummmm....there's also the video evidence, firefighter testimoney, silverstein's admission of pulling building 7, law of physics, not to mention thousands of engineers, scholars, former government officials all agreeing that this was anything but a surprise attack by islamic extremists.
Northwoods just shows that this has been a plan for a long time, governments throughout history have done it, but in our government we have a document to prove that they intended to make that happen.
Anyway, check this out, good news footage...

(latest email message from VoteToImpeach.org)
The growing nation-wide effort to impeach George W. Bush and Dick Cheney is emblematic of a larger issue: what kind of country is the United States to become.
Yesterday’s news brought out two explosive pieces of information:
Lewis Libby, the indicted chief aide to Dick Cheney, has admitted under oath before a Federal Grand Jury that it was George W. Bush himself who authorized Libby to illegally “leak” classified information to New York Times reporter Judith Miller in July, 2003 in an effort to discredit Ambassador Joseph Wilson who had publicly stated that “there is nothing to the story” that Saddam Hussein’s government was trying to buy uranium for a nuclear weapons program. Wilson is the husband of Valerie Plame, the undercover CIA operative whose identity was revealed to the media as retaliation for Wilson’s contention that Bush’s assertions about Iraq’s Weapons of Mass Destruction were false. The “classified information” that Bush and Cheney authorized Libby to plant in the New York Times turned out to be entirely false.
Bush’s Attorney General admitted yesterday that Bush believes that he has the authority to personally authorize the secret wiretapping, without any court order, of any and all conversations and emails between Americans that occur exclusively within the borders of the United States. Earlier it was revealed that Bush set up a massive secret wiretapping operation monitoring a huge number of Americans, but he had asserted that it was only to listen in on conversations of people in the United States who were making international calls and emails.
The fact that Bush has not already had articles of impeachment filed in the House of Representatives is clear evidence that the people must act forcefully as the true guardians of the Constitution and the Bill of Rights. That is exactly what the ImpeachBush.org movement is doing. When impeachment looked remote, there were still tens of thousands of individuals who tirelessly worked to collect petitions, hold rallies, wrote and called members of Congress and donated so that we could place newspaper ads all across the country.
Today, impeachment is not remote at all. It reflects the majority sentiment. Recent polls show that by 52% to 43% majority the American people favor impeachment if it is proved that Bush lied about the reasons for going to war. A nearly similar majority support impeachment if the President broke Federal wiretapping laws by authorizing the secret wiretapping of Americans without a court order when there is no evidence or inquiry of criminal wrongdoing.
Yesterday’s revelations confirm again that this is a lawless administration. Impeachment is imperative. This is a challenge for every person in this country who has a commitment to the Constitution. The people must continue to act rather than wait for the politicians to lead.
Now that more than 700,000 people have voted for impeachment at http://www.impeachbush.org/site/R?i=hCO8vu7P3MFxfqNyqqI9mg.. it is urgent that we do everything in our power to make the issue of Bush’s criminal conduct a major issue between now and the November Congressional elections. The newspaper ads are an excellent way to keep the issue of impeachment front and center. We have succeeded in placing more and more ads because of the donations of the people who are committed to this course.

here's what i want to. this bothers me more that all the dead innocents (if there really are any) intrigue and possible (i still don't believe it, although i have a certain grudging respect for the argument) perpretation of 9/11. it's this: the constitution clearly states what is and is not the president's job. he should hold no more sway or recieve no more attention than the heads of the of the other two branches. the constitution does not label him as a distinctive leader. he is equal to the other heads. presidents have been getting too much attention and power and responsibility ascribed to since roosevelt. presidents have been overstepping their bounds for a long long time. they've been to prevailent in america's mind for a long long time. how often has this president called by congress to explain his doings? not often enough. congress doesn't want to? too bad it's their constitutional fucking obligation to do so. and it's not just bush. it's been going on for so long. since when is the head of the executive branch more powerful or prominent since the head of the judicial or legistlative branch? show me it in the constitution. ultimately, as far as i'm concerned, if it's not in accordance to the constitution, then it should be out. all things, all people in this government are subservient to it, period, no negotiation, no argument, end of discussion. and for it to be otherwise is a perversion of the system.
no one has clue on how this government was set up to work anymore. how many people name the heads of the other branches? on this board, probably all of you. elsewhere, not nearly as many. |

Historically speaking there have been periods of time where congress held equal or more power over presidents. I would say up until Andrew Jackson, the powers of the legislative and executive branches were equal, except in a few certain instances (eg the Lousiana Purchase). Then the executive began to maintain more power and influence, culminating in Abraham Lincoln. If you look at the period of time after Lincoln, starting with Andrew Johnson (Fuckstick president) up until William McKinley, Congress clearly held the reins. After McKinley the president had become the main focus in government, and I think it is a fair statement to make that this has stayed consistent up until our present time.
The whole concept of focusing on the president could be explained as it is easier to lay blame on one individual, than it is to on an institution known as congress. Lets be honest, except for a few Senators and Congressmen (Like Obama, Kennedy, McCain, DeLay, etc), congress is essentially a faceless entity. I don't know if there is a practical way to change the way things have become. |

| that's the thing, though. they should all be faceless entities. the second it has a face, the more the public can focus on it. and yeah, sometimes congress holds more power. we've seen that in history. that sort of flux is, i suppose natural. but has congress ever held sway over the executive branch to the extent that the presidency has? i would suggest that it hasn't. |

After the impeachment trail and acquital of Andrew Johnson, it is generally recognized as the weakest era of the presidency, and I would argue that Congress held the same amount of influence or power over the executive that presidents have consistently enjoyed in the 20th century. But it was definitely a small, small portion of American History.
I don't know that in our media/techonologly driven society that we could have a faceless executive. It almost seems like certain aspects, like the economy and foreign policies, are dependent upon the "face" in the white house. |

Andrew Jackson
a.k.a. Giant Fuckface Coward
Um...I don't think you can call him a coward:
From wikipedia:
"On January 30, 1835 an unsuccessful assassination attempt against Jackson occurred in the United States Capital. This was the first assassination attempt made against an American President. As Jackson left a funeral, a man named Richard Lawrence approached Jackson and fired a pistol at point-blank range. The would-be assassin was thwarted as his pistol misfired. He immediately drew another pistol, which also misfired, at which point Jackson attacked him with his cane, subduing him. Lawrence was later found to be mentally ill and committed to an insane asylum."
From Hal Morris' A Brief Biography of Andrew Jackson 1767-1845 .:
"In 1805 a friend of Jackson's deprecated the manner in which Captain Joseph Ervin had handled a bet with Jackson over a horse race. Ervin's son-in-law, Charles Dickinson became enraged and started quarreling with Jackson's friend which lead to Jackson becoming involved. Dickinson wrote to Jackson calling him a "coward and an equivicator". The affair continued, with more insults and misunderstandings, until Dickinson published a statement in the Nashville Review in May 1806, calling Jackson a "worthless scoundrel, ... a poltroon and a coward".
Jackson challenged Dickinson to a duel very much according to the customs of the time in the south. Dickinson, known as one of the best shots in Tennessee if not the best, had choice of weapons and chose pistols.
Dickinson fired the first shot, which broke two of Jackson's ribs and lodged two inches from his heart. Dickinson then had to stand at the mark as Jackson, clutching his chest, aimed slowly and shot him fatally.
Jackson's wound never healed properly and abcesses formed around the bullet, causing pain and some debilitation for Jackson's remaining 39 years."
He took a bullet dead on, in order to take his time and take the other man out. Definitely not the work of a coward. |

Ben, I know you're a bit of a flag-sucker, but Andrew Jackson ordered the execution of thousands of Natives, so you can take that elitist glory story and shove it. The guy was an abominable douchebag, and his assassination may have saved thousands of lives.
I guess the guy who signed into law the "Indian Removal Act" of 1830 is a true American hero. |

I'm not saying he was a good president by any means! What I was referring to was that you can't call him a coward. He would be the first to charge into a situation. The stories I interesting and amusing, but don't cleanse him of any of his sins in the slightest. In terms of atrocities committed by a president, he takes the cake.
And just because I'm not convinced that the US Government was behind the attacks and I don't believe everything on Prison Planet doesn't make me a "flag sucker." I have spent the last three years critiquing the history of this country and the actions taken by its leaders. |

i see no reason to call him a coward from everything presented thus far. all i see is that he had balls, and also that he had a lot of natives killed. the indian removal act effectively eliminates any reason to call him a good man.
the rest of the nonsense about flag sucking and implying one or the other is, in fact, a flag sucker or believes everything blindly on prison planet is childish and totally irrelevent to the discussion of andrew jackson's merit or lack thereof. that sort of thing is just too stupid pursue. frankly, it's beneath the both of you. |

so you didn't want to argue over the meanings of the words you use? why use words at all, then?
i didn't even know you could do that. so i can say anything i want, and then when someone calls me out on it, i can just say "well i don't want to argue semantics." awesome. i'm 20 feet tall. don't tell me i'm 5'8, because i don't want to argue about what the meanings of the words "twenty feet tall" and "five feet, eight inches" means. |

It's during the scene where Dan Akroyd humbly states, "Like I'm gonna put a bullet hole in your fuckin' forehead, and I'm gonna fuck the brain hole!"
And...scene!

Impeachment: I'm asking you. Do you think it's time?
Dear Friends,
Today is the fourth anniversary of the war in Iraq. We know it was wrong to go into this war and it's wrong to stay in.
For four years I have been working to end this war, including leading the effort to cut off continued funding for the war. There is enough money to bring our troops home and we should do that.
But the Bush administration, with the help of some in Congress, wants to pour more money into this war.
Worse than that, the Bush administration now is signaling its intention to wage war with Iran. We cannot allow that to happen.
So I'm asking you. Do you think it's time?
I'm talking about time for impeachment.
I ask because we are now have a condition in this country where we are told to take impeachment off the table, and keep on the table a U.S. military attack against Iran.
This situation calls for us to reconsider very deeply the moment that we're in – where our Constitution is being trashed, where international law is being violated, where our hopes and dreams for the education of our children, for the health of our people, for housing, for our veterans, are being set aside as we go deeper and deeper into war.
We need a whole discussion in America. And with your help, we're about to have one.
Please go to my website, and watch the video posted today, "Impeachment: I'm asking you. Do you think it's time?" ... http://kucinich.us/modules/civicrm/extern/url.php?q=196759&u=310
You may find the printed transcript of this video at ... http://kucinich.us/modules/civicrm/extern/url.php?q=196759&u=311
Or you can see this video on my YouTube site, at ... http://kucinich.us/modules/civicrm/extern/url.php?q=196759&u=312
Once you've watched or read this statement, please send me your comments. Over this past weekend there were thousands of demonstrations against this war being waged by the President with the consent of Congress. This must stop.
Then talk to your friends, family, and neighbors. Get them together for a house party to discuss this war, and our options to stop it. Click here for information on a house party kit.
Please join with me on this day by signaling your continued support for ending this war. Your voice is important.
And so is your contribution. We need your help to carry our message forward. Our goal is to raise $50 million for this campaign, $50 at a time from one million concerned Americans: http://kucinich.us/modules/civicrm/extern/url.php?q=196759&u=314;id=1
Be One of a Million. Please contribute today to show your support for ending this war.
Thank you,
Dennis J Kucinich

There is a fast-developing free speech battle between the Bush Administration and those who seek to preserve the National Mall in its current status as a treasured location for mass assembly protest. Every day that Bush stays in office we can anticipate a new assault on civil liberties and the Bill of Rights. It is incumbent upon us all to take action. If Bush gets his way, by the day he leaves office, cherished civil liberties will be eviscerated for decades to come.
The National Park Service (NPS) is undertaking an initiative similar to that launched to exclude protests from New York City's Great Lawn. It will be used to further restrict or ban protest on the National Mall. This is a component of a nationwide campaign of corporate-sponsored organizations working in partnership with government entities that claim that protests, rallies and demonstrations harm grass or "green space" or "natural resources" and must therefore be restricted or banned or shunted off to designated protest pits.
As many ImpeachBush/VotetoImpeach members know, the movement to Impeach Bush was launched by Ramsey Clark on the National Mall on January 18, 2003 at the largest anti-war demonstration since the end of the Vietnam War, numbering 500,000.
At a public meeting called by the National Park Service ten days ago, on Saturday, January 12 in Washington, D.C., representatives from ImpeachBush.org, the Partnership for Civil Justice, ANSWER Coalition, Nicaragua Network, Grassroots America and others demanded that there be no new restrictions placed on the right of the people to access the National Mall for free speech activities.
Take Action Today
Right now, you can email the National Park Service demanding that there be no restrictions on the right of the people to assemble.
https://secure2.convio.net/pepib/site/Advocacy?cmd=display&page=UserAction&id=116
It is urgent that people around the country take action to stop the plan of the Bush Administration's Interior Department to obstruct free speech rights for mass assembly protest in Washington, D.C. The Bush White House plans to complete this process and deliver a knockout punch to free speech rights by January, 2009, the very last month that Bush will remain in office.
The NPS has set up a "public-private" partnership that allows business interests and real estate developers -- in coordination with the government -- to determine the future of the National Mall. The Jan. 12 public meeting was intended to have low attendance to allow the government to claim public involvement while simultaneously excluding it. When confronted with the fact that they had done no legitimate outreach about the public meeting to the hundreds of thousands of people who have actually used the National Mall, the President of the Trust for the National Mall responded that she had sent notice to the Board of Trade! The NPS issues 3,000 permits a year for the use of the National Mall, but there has been no effort to notify any of those organizations about the proposed changes. Their attempt to exclude people from this process could not be more clear.
At the hearing the officials tried to quiet the outraged voices of the people, to change the topic of discussion, and to dismiss their concerns. They did, however, keep saying, just send us a message on-line. That is what we are asking everyone to do today.
The government is trying to end the public "comment" period by February 15, 2008. ImpeachBush demanded at the hearing that the sham process of the NPS be halted. We demanded that a moratorium be declared so that the people of this country can be able and informed to weigh in with their opinion. The National Mall belongs to the people.
FROM THE WASHINGTON POST:
Washington Post: The Battle To Remold the Mall
Preservation Proposals Spark Debate Over Protest Rights
Sunday, January 20, 2008
By: Michael E. Ruane
The National Park Service envisions a prime venue for demonstrations: a broad space at the foot of the Capitol with restrooms, seating, a paved surface, even a stand for the media.
Attorneys for activist groups fear a designated, government-approved "pit," limiting freedom of speech and movement in a hallowed place of protest.
The proposal to turn Union Square, the site of the Capitol reflecting pool and the Grant Memorial, into an "urban civic square" is one of many ideas the Park Service is mulling over as it plans the future of the Mall.
But that and other suggested changes have sparked harsh debate between government officials seeking to preserve one of the country's most heavily used national parks and activists concerned about limits on free speech and civil rights.
The faceoff prompted tense exchanges at a public meeting this month and demands for the Park Service to halt its planning and seek broader public input.
"This is a sugar-coating effort to conceal the real plan, which is to reorganize the Mall from its traditional venue as the heart and soul of this country's free-speech protest movement," said Brian Becker, national coordinator of the antiwar ANSWER coalition.
Susan Spain, project executive for the National Mall Plan, countered: "We are not seeking to restrict First Amendment demonstrations whatsoever."
The Park Service requires permits for most demonstrations and has "reasonable time, place and manner restrictions" for them, she said. What is proposed is only a better place to protest, with more facilities, she said.
But lawyer Mara Verheyden-Hilliard of the Partnership for Civil Justice, which advocates for protest groups, noted that the Capitol might not always be the protesters' target.
Demonstrators "also want to be able to protest as far back [on the Mall] as they need and as wide as they need," she said. "They have the right to . . . not be shunted off to a protest pit."
None of the proposals for the Mall's future, laid out in three mix-and-match alternatives, has been adopted. The Park Service says that they are only suggestions and that it is seeking public comment.
Last week, it extended the mail and online comment period through Feb. 15.
Information is available at http://www.nps.gov/nationalmallplan.
The proposals, which Spain said were developed from prior public input, are part of the Park Service's attempt to better manage the Mall, which has an estimated 25 million visitors a year and in many areas is worn from age and use.
The Park Service issues 3,000 permits a year for events on the Mall. About half are for "First Amendment" demonstrations. Most of those involving politics draw a few hundred people or fewer, officials said, with perhaps a dozen or so attracting more than 5,000.
The National Mall & Memorial Parks -- the official name -- extends from the Capitol to the Lincoln Memorial and is home to the Washington Monument, the Jefferson Memorial and the Vietnam Veterans Memorial. It also includes the Tidal Basin, the National World War II Memorial and the Korean War Veterans Memorial.
It has extensive maintenance problems. Many grassy areas are worn down to the bare dirt. Parts of the wall and walkway around the Tidal Basin have sunk so far that they are submerged at high tide. And the outdoor Sylvan Theater, which sits next to the Washington Monument and traces its history to 1917, looks shabby and dilapidated.
Indeed, one of the proposals is to move the Sylvan Theater, whose 1970s structure stands about 10 feet from the Washington Monument's new security perimeter. A new location was not identified.
Another idea calls for filling in the north bay of the Tidal Basin and removing the Kutz Bridge, which carries eastbound Independence Avenue traffic over the basin.
The Kutz Bridge entered Washington lore in 1974 when a girlfriend of U.S. Rep. Wilbur D. Mills jumped from it into the water during a police stop. A stripper known professionally as "Fanne Foxe," she was rescued unharmed, although Mills's reputation was tarnished.
The Park Service says that the north bay has been the site of fish kills and that the narrow sidewalks along the bridge are crowded and dangerous during peak tourist season.
Other proposals call for paving the Mall's gravel walkways and building a playground near its carousel.
Union Square, between Maryland and Pennsylvania avenues and Third and First streets NW, has been a controversial place for demonstrations. Prior to President Bush's 2006 State of the Union address, protesters had to go to federal court to gain access to the site, which police had said was inside a security perimeter.
Much of the roughly 18-acre square is occupied by the large reflecting pool, which is favored by photographers but filled with dirty water and populated by seagulls. The pool was installed in the late 1960s during the creation of the Interstate 395 tunnel beneath the Capitol and has little historic value, experts say.
Some of the ideas call for removing the pool and paving the square, equipping it as a place to host protests and performances. The Park Service estimates that it could hold more than 50,000 people.
During a Jan. 12 public meeting in the Old Post Office Pavilion, Spain said large demonstrations would not be restricted from spreading across the Mall. Park Service spokesman Bill Line said later that the vast majority of demonstrations would fit tidily in Union Square.
The idea is "how do we better accommodate things, and how do we design for them" Spain said, "and also have this place look the way the American public would like the welcoming space in our nation to look." She said the chief sentiment among 5,000 prior public comments was that the Mall does not look as good as it should. So another proposal suggests "mandatory rest periods between events" to "protect natural resources and views."
But Verheyden-Hilliard argued that the Park Service was unfairly linking appearance and protest.
"They're suggesting that robust political speech and use of [the Mall] . . . for political protest is somehow incongruous or in conflict with the location itself," she said.
"Grass grows back. Free speech doesn't."

Elizabeth Holtzman, a leading figure in the impeachment proceedings against Richard Nixon, has issued the well-publicized argument explaining why the impeachment of George W. Bush is imperative even now. Holtzman served on the House Judiciary Committee during proceedings toward Nixon's impeachment. She coauthored the 1973 special-prosecutor statute, and cowrote (with Cynthia L. Cooper) the 2006 book "The Impeachment of George W. Bush."
Judiciary Committee Should Move to Impeach Bush and Cheney
By Elizabeth Holtzman
Since mid-December, members of the House Judiciary Committee Robert Wexler (D., Fla.), Luis Gutierrez (D., Ill.) and Tammy Baldwin (D., Wis.) have called for hearings on the impeachment of Vice President Cheney.
This should not be surprising, given the strength of the case for impeachment. What's surprising is that it took so long for members of this committee, normally tasked with holding impeachment proceedings, to call for them.
They face huge political resistance on Capitol Hill. But they aren't alone. Other Democratic members are joining them. Former senator and Democratic presidential nominee George McGovern recently published an op-ed demanding impeachment proceedings for both Bush and Cheney. Bruce Fein, a Republican who served in the Reagan Justice Department, and many other constitutional scholars also argue for impeachment.
There is more than ample justification for impeachment. The Constitution specifies the grounds as treason, bribery or "high crimes and misdemeanors," a term that means "great and dangerous offenses that subvert the Constitution." As the House Judiciary Committee determined during Watergate, impeachment is warranted when a president puts himself above the law and gravely abuses power.
Have Bush and Cheney done that?
Yes. With the vice president's participation, President Bush repeatedly violated the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act, which requires court approval for presidential wiretaps. Former President Richard Nixon's illegal wiretapping was one of the offenses that led to his impeachment. FISA was enacted precisely to avoid such abuses by future presidents.
Bush and Cheney were involved in detainee abuse, flouting federal criminal statutes (the War Crimes Act of 1996 and the anti-torture Act) and the Geneva Conventions. The president removed Geneva protections from al-Qaeda and the Taliban, setting the abuse in motion, and may have even personally authorized them.
The president and vice president also used deception to drive us into the Iraq war, claiming Saddam Hussein and al-Qaeda were in cahoots, when they knew better. They invoked the specter of a nuclear attack on the United States, alleging Hussein purchased uranium in Niger and wanted aluminum tubes for uranium enrichment, when they had every reason to know these claims were phony or at least seriously questioned within the administration. Withholding and distorting facts usurps Congress' constitutional powers to decide on going to war.
Can a commander-in-chief disobey laws on wiretapping or torture to protect the country in wartime?
No. The Constitution requires the president to "take care that the laws be faithfully executed." The Supreme Court ruled Harry S. Truman could not seize steel mills to prevent a strike, even during the Korean War. Nixon's claim of national security as a justification for illegal wiretaps was also rejected in impeachment proceedings against him.
What then is the justification for taking impeachment "off the table"? Congressional leaders don't defend the administration, nor do they contend that its actions are unimpeachable or less serious than Nixon's. Instead they argue there is no time, or that impeachment proceedings would distract the Congress from other work, or divide the country. The subtext seems to be fear that impeachment could undermine Democratic election prospects in 2008.
But even these "pragmatic" arguments are wrong. Let's take them one at a time:
Insufficient time. In the case of Nixon, the House officially instructed the Judiciary Committee to act in early February 1974. The committee finished voting on articles of impeachment July 29, less than six months later. No presidential impeachment proceeding had taken place for almost 100 years, so the committee had to start from scratch, analyzing the Constitution and developing procedures for the impeachment inquiry. Now that the relevant legal spade work is done and a road map for proper impeachment proceedings exists, Congress might conduct them even faster than in 1974.
Distraction. During Watergate, the impeachment inquiry didn't prevent Congress from getting its work done. In fact, the House Judiciary Committee also worked on other matters during impeachment, just as the Senate did during its impeachment trial of former President Bill Clinton.
Divisiveness. True, President Clinton's impeachment was a highly partisan process that divided the country - because most Americans didn't support it. They believed his conduct was reprehensible, but not an impeachable offense. Impeachment therefore had negative repercussions for the Republicans who instigated it.
Nixon's impeachment united the American people. The process was bipartisan, demonstrating this wasn't just a Democratic ploy to undo an election. The fairness of the process, the seriousness of purpose, the substantial evidence - all gave the public confidence that justice had been done. This reinvigorated the shared value that the rule of law and preservation of democracy are more important than any president or party.
This value is again asserting itself in grassroots impeachment movements across America. The Vermont Senate, several state Democratic parties, and many municipal governments have adopted resolutions supporting impeachment. More state legislatures would have acted except for pressure from Washington. Many polls show a majority of Americans support impeaching Cheney (a Nov. 13 American Research Group poll says 70 percent of Americans believe he abused his office), and slightly less than a majority support impeaching Bush.
Stonewalling such widespread public sentiment is itself divisive, leading at least half the country to feel their concerns about upholding the Constitution are being ignored. Only a serious airing of evidence in hearings would heal the split.
Undermining election prospects. When the impeachment process began, Nixon had just been reelected in one of the largest landslides in history. Few, if any, worried about whether impeachment was a political winner for Congress or the Democrats. Public opinion simply forced Congress' hand when Nixon fired Special Prosecutor Archibald Cox. After the Judiciary Committee conducted impartial hearings and voted on impeachment, Congress' approval ratings soared. Republicans were swamped in the November 1974 elections.
Whether or not they bring electoral rewards in 2008, impeachment proceedings are the right thing to do. They will help curb the serious abuses of this administration, and send a strong message to future administrations that no president or vice president is above the law.

"Bush and Cheney: arrested for gross violations of international and U.S. law!" A new proposal in the township of Brattleboro, Vermont -- authorizing local law enforcement to arrest Bush and Cheney -- would make this headline a reality, should either of them step inside the town's jurisdiction. The Brattleboro proposal is to be voted on in the coming weeks at a town hall meeting. The proposal is up for discussion thanks to the hard work of community activists, who petitioned citywide to have the motion put to a vote. Fearful of the indictment, Bush and Cheney are mounting a counteroffensive. But in town after town in Vermont, the people have voted to support impeachment recognizing that Bush and Cheney have committed high crimes and misdemeanors.

| Well HRW, I have to humbly disagree. I think, at least for me, is that it PUNISHES them for what they have done and secondly and prolly more importantly sets an example for future leaders that this kind of behavior will not be tolerated by the people of this country. I could go on and on but I think that is the simplest answer. |

Fluffy, how is that punishment? The dishes are done man.
You think Donny Scumsfeld was disappointed in himself when he stepped down? Gimme a break.
Impeachment is an American anecdote now, there were impeachment hearings for Clinton for getting a blowjob and fibbing about it. You think impeaching the Bush/Cheney monster at the end of its 2nd term is punishment? It'd be a useless and expensive formality at this point. They've been manipulating public opinion since the 70's, man. Time to focus on dealing with the real problems that existed long before the 'Iraq War.'
Let's all concentrate on the rampant voter fraud there's bound to be in November, ah? |

| Not only would I like to see them impeached I'd like to see them convicted and punished for their crimes. It's expensive and doesn't solve any big issues maybe but it's about a political process that's supposed to be used when the president breaks the law. Not impeaching and convicting them would continue to show that presidents are becoming more like kings and above the law. |

Brattleboro, Vermont passes indictment of Bush and Cheney
To be arrested in Brattleboro "if they are not duly impeached"
The courageous people of Brattleboro, Vermont have taken the lead! Frustrated that elected officials have refused to introduce articles of impeachment in defiance of their constituents' demands, the people of Brattelboro voted to direct town officials to draw up indictment papers against George Bush and Dick Cheney for violating their oath of office.
The Brattleboro vote took place during the Tuesday's Vermont primary election. Bush supporters launched a major campaign to discredit the referendum resolution and the organizers. Yet the resolution passed by a vote of 2012 in favor to 1795 against.
"Shall the Selectboard instruct the Town Attorney to draft indictments against President Bush and Vice President Cheney for crimes against our Constitution, and publish said indictments for consideration by other authorities and shall it be the law of the Town of Brattleboro that the Brattleboro Police, pursuant to the above-mentioned indictments, arrest and detain George Bush and Richard Cheney in Brattleboro if they are not duly impeached, and prosecute or extradite them to other authorities that may reasonably contend to prosecute them?" The people of Brattleboro answered, "yes!"
The indictment means that Bush and Cheney can be arrested for criminal acts should they ever enter Brattleboro. The indictment would go into effect after Bush and Cheney leave office.
The Brattleboro resolution is becoming a powerful organizing model for cities and towns around the country. The impeachment movement has sunk deep roots throughout this country. The people of the United States are demanding not only that the Constitution be restored, but that the President, Vice President and other officials be held accountable for committing high crimes and misdemeanors.
The Brattleboro resolution shows that even where Congressional representatives are refusing to follow the majority sentiment demanding impeachment, that the people themselves can take action.

From votetoimpeach.org:
Every day brings another reason for George W. Bush to be impeached. We have a duty to act and we can make a difference.
Explaining that his "loyalty to the truth" overrode his "loyalty to Bush," former White House spokesman Scott McClellan published a new memoir this week, which details the ways in which the administration regularly lied to and deceived the American public. McClellan asserts that the White House had managed the debate leading up to the 2003 invasion of Iraq in a way that "almost guaranteed that the use of force would become the only feasible option." In this "culture of deception," the corporate media acted as "enablers" to the Bush administration's war of aggression.
McClellan undoubtedly wrote the book for the sake of his career, to distance himself from an increasingly detested president. But the fact is that the longstanding beliefs of the anti-war and impeachment movement have now been confirmed by a Bush insider. The president lied about going to war; it was not just a case of "bad intelligence," but intentional deception. This is an impeachable crime.
Join the Tuesday, June 3 Call-in to John Conyers
As Ramsey Clark said in his message last week, "The Judiciary Committee and its Chairman have failed to act in the face of overwhelming evidence of the most grievous high Crimes and Misdemeanors ever to imperil our nation and its place among nations." The time to act is now.
We are asking you to take a moment on Tuesday, June 3, to call Rep. John Conyers, the Chair of the House Judiciary Committee, to act on the impeachment resolution in the hands of his committee. This is not a matter of electoral politics or partisan politics. It is a matter of right-and-wrong, whether the Constitution is still adhered to, or if it is just a piece of paper.
Please call John Conyers Tuesday, June 3, at 202-225-5126, 202-224-3121, 202-225-3951, 313-961-5670, or 734-675-4084. Let Mr. Conyers know, "You have a constitutional and legal obligation to act on impeachment. The Bush administration intentionally deceived the public to go to war, and the people of this country demand that they be held accountable." |

Ramsey Clark: A decisive moment for impeachment
Now is the time that our actions can prove decisive. Rep. Dennis Kucinich has introduced 35 articles of impeachment. Please read the important statement released today by former U.S. Attorney General Ramsey Clark, which is below.
As Ramsey Clark makes clear, the impeachment of George W. Bush is the most important task of the moment for the safety and security of the people of the United States, the Middle East and throughout the world. None of us can risk being plunged further into war.
More than 1 million people have joined together in support of the impeachment movement launched by Ramsey Clark at ImpeachBush.org. From collecting signatures in towns and cities across the land to letter writing campaigns to direct congressional visits volunteers have forced impeachment "on the table."
Now we must act and take the next steps. We are doubling our efforts and we need everyone to pitch in. Please contact your congressional representative and demand they support the 35 Articles of Impeachment.
Message from Ramsey Clark
Impeachment is not a political question. Impeachment is a constitutional duty. It is the one power and highest duty the Constitution rests in the Congress to preserve, protect and defend the Constitution of the United States when the President, Vice President, and other civil officers of the United States commit treason, bribery, or other High Crimes and Misdemeanors.
George Bush has deliberately, falsely and systematically mislead the Congress and the American people concerning the most criminal, costly and harmful acts of his administration, leading us to war, tragic loss of human life, the devastation of Iraq, military expenses reaching trillions of dollars, disruption of the economy that will take decades to overcome, a contemptuous assault on the Bill of Rights, an international humanitarian disaster, deliberate antagonism and provocation of nations and people, most once friendly, and an enlarging assault on the earth's environment.
On June 5, 2008, a long delayed five year U.S. Senate Select Committee on Intelligence study and 170-page report unanimously found President Bush, Vice President Cheney and other top officers had made false charges and systematically presented a more dire picture about Iraq than justified by intelligence provided only to them. The Committee included both Democrats and Republicans.
Today President Bush is exerting all his power and influence to repeatedly urge Europe, Israel and others to support an attack on Iran which he intends to commence in the remaining months of the presidency. Iran is larger than Iraq and Afghanistan, has millions of people, richer by a multiple, unimpaired by recent war and will fight fiercely if attacked. He is negotiating a permanent U.S. military presence in Iraq placing the U.S. on Iran's border.
The next several Presidents of the United States will spend their time in office miserably fighting wars started by Bush, as our economy is consumed in military spending.
Impeachment, a Constitutional duty, is the only way to prevent George W. Bush and his cabal from vastly enlarging the disastrous wars he has already inflicted on the world and the American people. The House of Representatives must quickly consider Bills of Impeachment long overdue, and the Senate must prepare to sit in judgment of President Bush, Vice President Cheney other officers who are implicated.

Articles of Impeachment
Dear Friend:
Under circumstances that can best be described as "suspicious," the www.kucinich.us website was crippled early this morning a few hours after Congressman Dennis Kucinich introduced 35 extensively documented Articles of Impeachment against President George W. Bush.
Until we can restore the website and implement additional security measures, you can find the full list and detailed Articles at

ImpeachBush will be delivering you action alerts and updates on the impeachment struggle in Congress. Today, we have three things to report:
1) House members are expected to vote Wednesday (today) on sending articles of impeachment against President Bush to the Judiciary Committee. The 35 articles introduced by Dennis J. Kucinich, D-Ohio, on Monday are pressuring the Democratic Party to make good on a promise many of them made before the 2006 elections: to impeach! Just one week ago, ImpeachBush.org members flooded Judiciary Chairman John Conyers offices with the demand for impeachment during the National Call-In Day for Impeachment. We must continue to let Rep. Conyers and every other Congressperson know that the people demand action!
2) Calling it "a sworn duty" of Congress to act, U.S. Rep. Robert Wexler of Florida signed on yesterday to Dennis Kucinich's 35 Articles of Impeachment. "President Bush deliberately created a massive propaganda campaign to sell the war in Iraq to the American people and the charges detailed in this impeachment resolution indicate an unprecedented abuse of executive power," Wexler said in a statement.
3) At 1pm, June 11, members of Veterans for Peace will hold a news conference at the Capitol to display the 22,000 names they collected on a petition to impeach Bush, which they will deliver to the office of John Conyers, Chair of the House Judiciary Committee. VFP Vice-President Elliott Adams wrote, "Having taken an oath to defend the Constitution 'from all enemies foreign and domestic,' our members take the obligation to impeach George W. Bush most seriously. We must hold this administration accountable for waging a war of aggression against Iraq." |

How IRONIC that less than 2 days after the Articles of Impeachment were put before Congress I see this story about Bush. I think it's too late to salvage your "image" as a war-monger vs a "man of peace" Gov. Bush:
Bush Expresses Regret Over War Words
By Matt Spetalnick and Kerstin Gehmlich,Reuters
Posted: 2008-06-11 11:10:50
MESEBERG, Germany (June 11) - U.S. President George W. Bush, visiting Europe for the last time before his presidency ends, expressed regret on Wednesday about divisions caused by the Iraq war.
On his European trip, seven months before he steps down, Bush is expected to discuss issues ranging from Iran's nuclear program to high oil prices and climate change. He will meet German Chancellor Angela Merkel on Wednesday before heading to Rome, Paris, London and Belfast in Northern Ireland.
Bush remains unpopular in western Europe more than five years after he clashed with former German leader Gerhard Schroeder, France, Russia and other countries over the U.S.-led invasion of Iraq.
Schroeder's successor Merkel, a pro-American conservative who grew up in East Germany, has worked hard to repair ties between the Cold War allies and has formed a close relationship with Bush, who appears keen to emphasise diplomacy over military might on his European trip.
"I think that in retrospect I could have used a different tone, a different rhetoric," Bush told the Wednesday edition of the Times of London, referring to the U.S.-led invasion of Iraq.
He acknowledged that phrases like "bring them on" and "dead or alive" had given the impression he was "not a man of peace".
Bush started his European tour at a U.S.-European Union summit in Slovenia, where he stressed the need to build up international pressure on Iran, but stopped short of his usual warning that all options are on the table in dealing with Tehran and its nuclear enrichment program.
Despite three rounds of sanctions by the U.N. Security Council, Iran has refused to stop enrichment. It says its program is aimed at creating electricity rather than nuclear weapons.
Within a week, the European Union's foreign policy chief Javier Solana plans to present a revised package of political and economic incentives for Iran to give up enrichment, similar to an offer made in 2006 that was rejected.
"We're going to make this offer, and if the Iranian regime denies the Iranian people the benefit of the offer, then we're going to have to turn up the pressure and I think everybody recognizes that," Bush's national security adviser Stephen Hadley told reporters on Bush's plane to Germany on Tuesday.
Bush is keen to win European support for a tougher round of sanctions against Iran after world powers agreed measures in March which increased the number of individuals and firms on a United Nations travel and asset-freeze blacklist and called for vigilance over Iranian banks and shipping firms.
BEYOND BUSH
Europe has signalled support for the U.S. drive, but is also looking past Bush, whose eight years in office end in January.
Democratic candidate Barack Obama is popular in Germany, where he is seen by many as another President John F. Kennedy, who won over the country in 1963 with his celebrated "Ich bin ein Berliner" speech.
Obama has expressed a willingness to talk directly to Iran over its nuclear program, a move the Bush administration has repeatedly rejected.
The German government has said Iran and Middle East peace will be on the agenda when Merkel and Bush meet and hold a joint news conference at 0930 GMT on Wednesday.
But they are keen to emphasise other issues, including the rise in oil, gas and food prices and turbulence in financial markets.
Before sitting down for talks, Bush and Merkel strolled shoulder to shoulder through the sprawling garden in Meseberg, Bush in a business suit and tie and Merkel in a pants suit, chatting amiably and looking relaxed.
"All I can say is it's a great place for a bike ride," said Bush, who went biking through the rolling hills and lush woods of the compound before breakfast with Merkel.
In an interview with the Financial Times, Merkel criticised what she called "Anglo-Saxon dominated" markets and said Europe, emboldened by its robust currency, should strive for more influence over the rules governing the financial market system. (Writing by Noah Barkin; Editing by Catherine Evans)

Two new co-sponsors for impeachment -- let's get more!
Three important updates
1) We now have three co-sponsors to the 35 Articles of Impeachment. Along with Rep. Robert Wexler (Fl.), who signed on last week, two California Representatives -- Barbara Lee and Lynn Woolsey -- are now officially backing the impeachment call. This is important progress, but we can do even better. Please take a moment right now to send a letter to your Congressional representative and urge them to join the list of co-sponsors! Also, in your letter urge your representative to pressure the Judiciary Committee to initiate impeachment hearings immediately!
Click here to send your letter
2) Call the Judiciary Committee at 202-225-3951 and urge them to initiate impeachment hearings immediately. The Committee -- headed by John Conyers, who previously was an open supporter of impeachment -- has the power to act on Rep. Kucinich's Articles of Impeachment. It is susceptible to popular pressure. The 35 Articles of Impeachment, available on our homepage, are meticulously researched and detailed, and any one of them alone would serve as reason for impeachment. It's clear that Conyers would not have the support of the Democratic leadership if he acted on impeachment, so we have to make it clear that he would have the support of the people. After you've made your call, please click the following link to fill out a brief form and let us know. We'd like to keep track of how many calls are made.
Click here to let them know you called Conyers office
3) While Iowa and other midwestern states are in deep crisis as a result of flooding and government negligence, Bush has been in Europe drinking tea at Windsor Castle with Queen Elizabeth II, enjoying bike rides in a Paris park and the lush German countryside, and soaking up the stunning view of Renaissance villas outside Rome. Thankfully, it wasn't all sweet for Bush. Thousands of people protested him in France and Italy with the simple slogans "No War, No Bush!" He's the most despised man on the planet -- George W. Bush -- and the whole world is counting on us to bring him to justice.

Dear Friend:
Only one Congressman had the personal courage and the profound respect for our Constitution to stand on the floor of the House of Representatives and exercise his right and his responsibility to bring Articles of Impeachment against President George W. Bush - Ohio Representative Dennis J. Kucinich.
Now is the time for Americans to speak with one voice to support his bold and historic efforts to preserve, protect, and defend the Constitution of the United States of America. (http://impeachment.kucinich.us/)
Beginning today, Americans who cherish our Democracy and the Constitutional principles upon which it was founded can stand up, speak out, and take action by signing the one official petition that carries the full and unqualified support of the one and only original sponsor of the impeachment resolution: Congressman Dennis J. Kucinich.
Read the Articles (http://kucinich.us/impeachment/articles.pdf) and exercise your right to be heard by signing the official Kucinich Petition.
http://impeachment.kucinich.us/petition/.
Thank you
Committee to Re-Elect Congressman Kucinich

Congressman warns of Karl Rove arrest!
Impeachment movement demands accountability
When Bush's former press secretary Scott McClellan released his book a few weeks ago that strongly criticized the White House, he may have just been jumping off a sinking ship. But his words opened up a Pandora's box, and now all the evils of the Bush administration are escaping into the public -- and people are demanding action.
Rep. Robert Wexler (D-Fla.), one of the four co-sponsors of the impeachment articles introduced on June 9, has made the case that McClellan's Congressional testimony lays the basis for legal action against Bush's top dogs. On one hand, McClellan's testimony that Bush was not the source of the leak of Valerie Plame Wilson's name -- a retaliatory move against her husband who had criticized the administration -- directly points to Cheney as the source. Wexler forcefully argued that this in itself was enough to initiate impeachment hearings against Cheney.
But it doesn't stop there. Karl Rove has also been implicated in the leak, and has been subpoenaed to testify before the Judiciary Committee. But Rove has brazenly refused to reply to the subpoenas. Will Congress let Bush's team simply act with impunity, even when they've left office? Wexler thundered, "We have the power of inherent contempt, and need be, we should use it." In other words, Congress has the power to arrest Rove if he fails to respond to the Judiciary Committee.
This would be an important signal to the Bush administration that accountability and justice are the order of the day. It would give pause to his team that they can no longer act with reckless abandon -- that the people of this country mean business.
Over the last few weeks, literally tens of thousands of letters have been sent through ImpeachBush.org to Congressional representatives demanding that they support Rep. Kucinich's initiative. There have been thousands of calls to the Judiciary Committee. And over 10,000 people downloaded and printed the ImpeachBush flyer to circulate in their own communities. In other words, this movement is happening. |

Together we can:
Urge real Congressional action to hold President Bush accountable now
Reinstate the authority of our Constitution
Document crimes committed by President Bush for historical account
Facilitate post-Administration law enforcement and prosecution
Reset the standard for the incoming and future administrations
Demand justice for the over 3,000 who died on 9/11and whose deaths were tragically exploited to take us into an illegal war in Iraq
Demand justice for the estimated 30,324 U.S. military personnel who have been injured/wounded
Demand justice for the estimated 4,138 U.S. military personnel who have been killed or died
Demand justice for the 1 Million innocent Iraqis who have died*
Avert another illegitimate looming war – this time against Iran

For those who feel this way please watch the following video explaing WHY it is still important. There is a lack of public understanding about the intent behind impeachment proceedings. The common response is, "it's too late, why bother now." This video explains why it's still important:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=F4N64ZEoZqc
Excerpt:
"The articles of impeachment establish a public record of the violations of law - the international and national law - that have occurred. We need the historic record. We need to have hearings so that there will be accountability so people have to answer questions. We need to stop this administration from abusing its power again by attacking Iran. We need to stop this administration from further undermining of the Constitution in the time that we have left." - Congressman Dennis Kucinich
After, if you feel so inclined please sign the petition. They would like try and get 1 million signatures between now and Sept 10ish. Petition can be signed at:
http://www.kucinich.us/
THANX for taking the TIMe!

Hi friends -
With an election right around the corner a lot of people say, "Why seek impeachment now? - Bush will be out of office soon, and the government needs to focus on other things." Impeachment is an official filing of charges, equivalent to to the process of indictment. This attempt is not so much to remove Bush and Cheney from office BUT to hold them accountable for their crimes, and create a record to prevent similar abuse of our democracy in the future. Are we really going to let Bush and Cheney off the hook? If we allow the President and Vice President to 'get away with it', we are openly saying that their type of conduct is permissible in future administrations. Any and all crimes committed by the President and Vice President must be put on the official record to create an historical account, to facilitate future pursuit of law enforcement activities concerning the crimes, to remind future Administrations to adhere to the law, and to avert another looming illegal war - this time against Iran. The Articles of Impeachment put the Administration's crimes officially on record and hold the individuals accountable under domestic and international law, even after they leave office.
What is impeachment?
Impeachment is an official investigation of the conduct of the President and Vice President. It is a Constitutional responsibility given to Congress to prevent the abuse of Executive power. Impeachment is a formal filing of charges, similar to the process of indictment. The person impeached would then be subject to a trial in the US Senate.
I am trying to help give Dennis Kucinich 1,000,000 signatures to bring to Congress by Sept 10 to show that we want the Bush Administration charged for it's violations of the Constitution, and that we will not tolerate further crimes. Would you please take a moment to sign an impeachment petition at www.kucinich.us Please circulate this petition to everyone you know who you think would be willing to sign it. The internet is a mighty tool for reaching so many people in such a short amount of time.
FOR MORE DETAILS AND ANSWERS TO ANY QUESTIONS YOU MAY HAVE OR TO VIEW THE ARTICLES, PLEASE HAVE A LOOK AT THE IMPEACHMENT FAQ:
http://kucinich.us/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=2407&Itemid=76
Please help bring a call for justice to Congress.
