Demand Action From Congress: 500,000 Impeachment Letters to Pelosi by Jan. 3
News has spread across the country, but Americans remain unhindered by spineless Democratic leaders’ calls for a cut and run from Impeachment. Instead of being silenced, patriotic Americans have been emboldened by this call to action and have turned up the volume on their demands for justice.
Anti-war Activists in San Francisco are already raising their voices outside Nancy Pelosi’s office “Activists urge Pelosi to halt war in Iraq”
`
We’re out here today telling Nancy Pelosi congratulations on becoming speaker of the House,'’ activist Rae Abileah said. “Now it’s time to speak for the current majority and bring our troops home.'’
Cindy Sheehan has responded to Conyers and Pelosi’s dissappointing statements on Impeachment with an open letter “We the People are Setting the Table Now”
We the people are shocked that you two are already stridently saying over and over again that impeachment is “off the table.” Since the historic Nov. 7th elections, I have talked to a boat-load of Americans who want impeachment on the table. We activists worked hard to make these elections about national issues, like the illegal and immoral occupation of Iraq, and the culture of corruption that, especially you, Ms. Pelosi have been railing against for months now. And you, Mr. Conyers, have already written a brilliant and detailed indictment of BushCo. We the people are definitely puzzled by your rhetoric.
We the people are here to tell you that we are the ones that are going to be setting the table, now….
We the people demand that you do your duties as officers and protectors of our Constitution and we demand that you do your duties as members of humanity to call a halt to the crimes against humanity of the Bush regime.
When the 110th Congress is seated on January 3rd, we the people, who also have a duty to our Constitution (We the People is the first line) and a duty to humanity will be walking the halls of your offices to tell you what our agenda is and what we want on the table….
See you on January 3rd.
Activists at the Democratic Underground are calling for a letter writing campaign much like the one that resulted in the pursuit of impeachment and resignation of Nixon.
More than 50,000 telegrams poured in on Capitol Hill today, so many, Western Union was swamped. Most of them demanded impeaching Mr. Nixon.
John Chancellor, NBC News on a Special Report on October 20, 1973
Send 500,000 impeachment letters to Pelosi by her first day as speaker Jan. 3
We already have more support than that. When John Conyers took Bush his petition demanding he answer questions about the DSM, it had 540,000 singnatures, over ten times as many as wrote about Nixon. I would bet most of those people would write to demand impeachment of Bush, probably more.
The great thing is, now we have someone to focus this demand on who can and possibly will act (in spite of her protests to the contrary): Nancy Pelosi.
She should have a half million signatures waiting for her her first day as Speaker of the House.
I think she and the many of the Democrats want to do this, but to overcome the reluctance of the DC etablishment and big money interests who are afraid their ox will be gored along with Bush & Cheney, she needs constant overwhelming evidence of public DEMAND not just support for impeachment.

Now that the Democrats won, it is time to Impeach everyone who is guilty of rountinely violating our Constitutional rights.
They violate the 1st Amendment by caging demonstrators and banning books like “America Deceived” from Amazon.
They violate the 2nd Amendment by confiscating guns during Katrina.
They violate the 4th Amendment by conducting warrant-less wiretaps.
They violate the 5th and 6th Amendment by suspending habeas corpus.
They violate the 8th Amendment by torturing.
They violate the entire Constitution by starting 2 illegal wars based on lies and on behalf of a foriegn gov’t.
Fix up that, impeach all involved and while you are at it, investigate 9/11 a bit more thoroughly.
Support indy media.

By Congressman Kucinich
“Even now there are people who were urging President Bush to go to war who are staying that wrongful course. And people have to be held accountable. You can’t lead this country into a war that has lost thousands of U.S. troops and perhaps hundreds of thousands of innocent Iraqis, [and that has] cost the American taxpayers $400 billion–and maybe up to $2 trillion–and leave it with some kind of blithe apology. There has to be accountability. When the people elected Democrats, they also voted for accountability.
The American people are relying on us–not just to take a new direction, which I believe is out of Iraq, but they’re insisting on accountability for those who led us wrongly into Iraq.”

AMY GOODMAN: What’s your response to the Speaker in waiting, Nancy Pelosi, saying off the table?
ELIZABETH HOLTZMAN: Well, it’s very understandable. It was off the table to the Democrats in 1973, when the Democrats controlled the House and the Senate, and you had Richard Nixon as president.
AMY GOODMAN: He had won by a landslide victory in 1972.
ELIZABETH HOLTZMAN: Correct. He had won by a landslide, and impeachment was off the table then. Nobody — no Democrat was pushing for it. And, in fact, as the revelations came out, it still wasn’t on the table. It took the American people, after the Saturday Night Massacre, sending a clear message to the Congress

Impeach! Impeach! For the love of God or whomever, Impeach! How many more innocents must be slaughtered? How much more torture must be endured? How many more will be illegally detained? When does the Bush insanity end? If not now, then when?

What’s wrong with Nancy Pelosi?
She, and all of the top so call Democrats who should be bringing numerous charges of impeachment to the entire Bush cabal, have all said no need.
That is just plain crazy.
Is she really that stupid?
And what about the genius’ who really run the Government; the Zionist who own the Main stream Media, the Federal Reserve Bank and their lobby AIPAC, how is it possible they haven’t figured out the perfect twist?
Nancy Pelosi is their bitch. She has very clearly stated that Israel comes first!
Look here is how it works Nancy, (and your handlers), it is so easy and so cleaver.
Easy; because Bush and Cheney were so stupid and blatant about their heinous crimes that they should already be in prison awaiting execution.
So Articles of impeachment are a piece of cake.
Now correct me if I’m wrong but once a President and Vice President are removed from office, doesn’t the speaker of the house become President?
That’s two years in office before the next Presidential race.
It should give her a leg up for a run in ’08.
Oh wait; what am I thinking.
It has to go back to the Clinton crime family.

We must impeach those that took us to war. If we do not then the world will hold us all responsible as well they should. I believe that this war was a crime and should not go unpunished.
November 14th, 2006 at 7:02 am
Even if 5 million citizens marched on Washington, I believe the Gov would still not listen. Rather they would attack, using the mind-controlled, amoral police.
The time for words and petitions is over.
There is only one road out of this mess. Need I say what that is?
God help the just people of the world.

I like President Bush and the Economy. Please do not Impeach him. While Clinton had congress standing behind him, we have the military. Please don’t let the guns intimidate you.
