BUSH MUST GO!

IF WAR CRIMES, TORTURE, AND CRIMES AGAINST
HUMANITY ARE NOT REASON TO IMPEACH, WHAT IS?

The whole program of the Bush administration must
be stopped.  If George Bush is allowed to finish
out his term, all the destruction and the whole
direction he has taken society will be condoned,
legitimated and made permanent.  We demand
Congress investigate and hold accountable the
Bush Administration for criminal liability and
bring articles of impeachment against the
President. 

Generations from now people will ask what did the
people of this country do when they knew their
government was committing war crimes: launching a
war based on the unlawful doctrine of
“preventive” war; indiscriminately using cluster
bombs, depleted uranium and chemical weapons
against civilians; and carrying out an illegal
occupation? 

What will you say when they ask why a President
who decided he could order torture with impunity
stayed in office?

Will your answer be that we did nothing because
Congress refused to act, counseling governing
from the center and working with the President
and seeking unity and common ground with war
criminals, religious fanatics and fascists?

Your government, on the basis of outrageous lies,
is waging a murderous and utterly immoral and
illegitimate war in Iraq – with Iran now in its
sights.

Your government is openly torturing people.  In
violation of international law, with the Military
Commissions Act of 2006, it has made torture
legal and granted itself immunity from criminal
prosecution.

Your government is creating a police state –
obliterating basic constitutional protections,
such as the right to habeas corpus, the right to
privacy and the right to dissent.

For the war to end now, for torture to stop, to
restore rights stolen, we the people must act. 
No one will do this for us. That which you do not
resist and mobilize to stop, you will learn – or
be forced – to accept. 

We can and must create a political situation
where the Bush regime’s whole program is
repudiated, where Bush himself is driven from
office and where the whole direction he has been
taking society is reversed.
