Well, I was going to wait until tomorrow when the Sunday talking heads had got me good and raving mad, but I don't feel like talking about anything else... so many ideas, so little enthusiasm... so I thought I'd just rant for a few minutes.
George W. Bush and Dick Cheney and their cohorts are a bunch of criminals. It is a national disgrace that they were allowed to steal two (yes two... do some research - Hacking Democracy ) elections and it is a national disgrace that they are not being impeached by the members of both parties in Congress. They have committed so many impeachable crimes that it is mind boggling that they continue to brazenly commit more and thumb their noses at the country while Congress stands by in a drooling stupor. Aggggh!
I wish we would all raise our voices and push for impeachment. There are a number of ways to do this. Dennis Kucinich put impeachment back on the table but it has lain dormant in the Judiciary Committe for months and months now. Wexler, a Rep. from Florida and member of the Judiciary Committee is trying to push it forward. You can add your voice by signing on at the following sites:
Wexler Wants Hearings
Impeach Bush
AfterDowning Street
Impeach Now

Ask Nadler to Impeach
Besides this, you could call your own Representative and also the members of the Judiciary Committee and telling them you support HR333 - Kucinich's articles of impeachment.

Ok. Now I feel a little better. I will probably rant on this subject again, because I think our country will never recover from the shame of it if we don't hold these men accountable for the crimes they have committed and the hundreds of thousands of deaths they caused in our name. We impeached a man for being evasive about cheating on his wife. Surely we can impeach men who have violated the Constitution, invaded another country under false pretenses, caused hundreds of thousands of deaths, condoned and committed torture... agh, the list is so long...
Thanks for listening.

Keep posting, keep ranting. Perhaps eventually you won't just be preaching to the choir.
For those who want to reach Jerrold Nadler, member of the House Judiciary and chair of its subcommittee on The Constitution, Cvil Rights and Civil Liberties please sign our on line petition to him at www.AskNadler2Impeach.org
Jerrold Nadler is an impeachment obstructionist who puts party over principle and is nore concerned electing Hillary Clinton president than protecting the constitutional rights of his constituents.
Hi Jeni... thanks. I am so frustrated by what's going on in this country... I WILL be ranting again. Glad to know there's a choir to preach to, though.
Chuck... thanks for the link. I had forgotten that one. Ihave already signed, but I'll add it to my list.
At least their time is almost up. Lets cross our fingers that things dont get any worse...
There is definitely a choir Raven! and thank you for all that information. I have most of it but you put it together so nicely that it makes it easier to send it to others.
