Dear Gerry,
Well, he's finally done it!

Impeachment against
Vice-President Dick Cheney.

purposely manipulated

our national
security interests.
Article II
The Vice President of the United States, Richard B. Cheney, has
purposely manipulated
the intelligence process to deceive the citizens and Congress of the
United States
about an alleged relationship between Iraq and al Qaeda in order to
justify the use
of the U.S. Armed Forces against the nation of Iraq in a manner damagin
to our national
security interests.
Article III
In his conduce while Vice President of the United States, Richard B.
Cheney, in violation
of his constitutional oath to faithfully execute the office of Vice

and defend
the Constitution of the United States, and in violation of his
constitutional duty
to take care that the laws be faithfully executed, has openly threatened

Okay folks, it's on! Now is the time to speak up loud and clear to
demand that Congress
do the right thing and impeach Cheney, and that the media give this
story the attention
it deserves. A page has been set up at ImpeachCheney.org

with complete information on whom to contact to make this happen. Do it now!

Happy Springtime (Bush Is Over)!
In 1969, John Lennon and Yoko Ono proclaimed "War Is Over! (If You Want
It)". They
spread the message with billboards around the world and, later, a song.
We thought
an update was in order, and now Op-Critical and the Harmonic Angels have
graced us
with just that: "Happy Springtime (Bush Is Over)". You can watch the
video on YouTube
here
[http://rs6.net/tn.jsp?t=iyeed4bab.0.4p7kd4bab.owp697bab.5298&ts=S0243&p=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.youtube.com%2Fwatch%3Fv%3DJco4etlHwaE]
and download the MP3 here

The song is a wonderful reminder that ending war, torture, and impunity
for these
crimes really IS in our hands. Bush and Cheney lied to the world in
order to launch
a war that has killed hundreds of thousands of innocent people. If even
one-tenth
of all Americans who know that this is true were to stand with us on
Saturday, Bush
and Cheney would be facing impeachment faster than you can say
GuantanmoKatrinaAbuGhraibWMDsSigningStatementsValeriePlame!
This song is also an expression of the real reasons we are seeking
impeachment. This
is not some sort of petty partisan game. We are doing this because we
believe in
truth and freedom and justice, and in people's right to live their lives
in peace
without fear of being tortured or murdered or spied on. Do not yield an
inch to those
sad and cynical people who cannot imagine such a world and so try to
dissuade you
from even trying. We can do this, and we must do it.
Now I know that Dennis Kucinich has just introduced his articles of
impeachment against
Cheney, but Brett and the gang worked really hard on this song, so we're
going to
have to impeach Bush too. Help set the mood by watching the video

passing it along to your friends, and giving it a high rating on YouTube
[http://rs6.net/tn.jsp?t=iyeed4bab.0.4p7kd4bab.owp697bab.5298&ts=S0243&p=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.youtube.com%2Fwatch%3Fv%3DJco4etlHwaE].
The better it does there, the more likely it is to get broadcast by the
major media.
Let this be the soundtrack to the summer that we finally end the madness
and bring
peace and sanity to our world. Bush, Cheney, war, torture: they're all
over, if we
want it

Do you want to participate on A28 but you're not sure what to do?
This is for you!
Please remember that you do NOT need a lot of people to throw a creative
and attention-getting
A28 action! There are plenty of things you can in a small group or even
by yourself.
Signs are an easy but powerful way to get out the message and many
people will be
doing it that way. Lots of small groups will be holding up IMPEACH signs
at a busy
intersection in their community. A group in Atlanta is walking together
through a
city park (with one letter of IMPEACH on each of their t-shirts) to pass
out flyers
and talk about impeachment. A woman in Iowa is driving across the state
to photograph
people in different towns holding IMPEACH signs. Some people are
spelling out the
word IMPEACH in flowers or candles, with tennis balls in a chain-link
fence, or with
driftwood and seaweed on a beach.
Still others people are "freewayblogging"--posting large signs on
highway overpasses--about
impeachment. As the anonymous Freewayblogger says, this is a great way
to reach 100,000
people for less than $1.00. For information about freeway blogging, go
here
[http://rs6.net/tn.jsp?t=iyeed4bab.0.bq7kd4bab.owp697bab.5298&ts=S0243&p=http%3A%2F%2Ffreewayblogger.blogspot.com%2F2006%2F12%2Fputting-text-in-front-of-traffic.html]
   and for a great instructional video check this out
[http://rs6.net/tn.jsp?t=iyeed4bab.0.cq7kd4bab.owp697bab.5298&ts=S0243&p=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.current.tv%2Fwatch%2F28655462].
Some larger groups are throwing small rallies at the offices of their
representatives
in Congress or on the steps of their City Halls (which you can often do
for free
and on short-notice if you contact your city government). An organizer
in New York
is setting up a table in a city park with her musician friends to have a
'Write a
letter to Congress' party. Others are organizing smaller human murals,
mock impeachment
trials, launching IMPEACH kites and helium balloons, selling (im)peach
pies at farmer's
markets, and and throwing impeachment picnics in large parks or along
busy roads.
To brainstorm with other A28 folks about what to do for A28, check out
the discussion
in the A28 Forum
[http://rs6.net/tn.jsp?t=iyeed4bab.0.8qwnb4bab.owp697bab.5298&ts=S0243&p=http%3A%2F%2Fnetwork.a28.org%2Fforum].
The list of planned actions
[http://rs6.net/tn.jsp?t=iyeed4bab.0.ffrh75bab.owp697bab.5298&ts=S0243&p=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.a28.org%2Factions.shtml]
is also a great place to get ideas based on what other people are doing.
When you've decided what you want to do, put a red marker on the
ImpeachMap (making
sure to include your location, time of action, and an e-mail address)
and then e-mail
a copy of that info to add to the list of actions. Have fun with it!
