Impeachment

Nancy Pelosi and most prominent members of the Democratic party have been quick to dismiss the idea of impeachment. The mainstream media just ignores the entire idea. At Project Censored Peter Phillips raises an important question:

If a national movement calling for the impeachment of the President is rapidly emerging and the corporate media are not covering it, is there really a national movement for the impeachment of the President?

Believe it or not there is a national movement for impeachment. This weekend there will be an emergency summit in New York City held by World Can't Wait
Unfortunately this storm has me stuck in Kansas. I'd like to encourage everyone in the area to try and attend. Let's not fall asleep thinking the Democrats are going to somehow change the course of our imperialistic adventures. From the World Can't Wait website:

Bush's full program remains in effect. NSA Spying, the Patriot Act, the Military Commission Act: all continue. And all are illegal. The whole program of the Bush Administration must be thoroughly repudiated by removing him from office before his term expires; otherwise, the whole direction he has taken society will be condoned, legitimated, and made permanent.

A movement to Impeach Bush for War Crimes can quickly advance the whole struggle; making ending the war and removing Bush a reality. As impeachment becomes imminent and his war options grow more limited; the more his war crimes are exposed, the greater the impetus for his removal and repudiation.

Join activists, leaders, academics, and writers including Dennis Loo, Ted Glick, David Swanson, Bob Fertik, Daphne Wysham, Steve Cobble, Laura Flanders of Air America radio, Sunsara Taylor, Liam Madden, and many more.

Regardless of what Democratic leaders say, impeachment is important. Please join the effort. The World Can't Wait.
