Pete, Nancy, George and WWIII

by Cindy Sheehan

"You don't have money to fund the war or children. But you're going to
spend it to blow up innocent people if we can get enough kids to grow old
enough for you to send to Iraq to get their heads blown off for the
president's amusement.” Pete Stark (D-Ca)

“While Members of Congress are passionate about their views what
Congressman Stark said during the debate was inappropriate." Speaker of
the House, Nancy Pelosi, (D-Ca)


 “But this -- we got a leader in Iran who has announced that he wants to
destroy Israel. So I've told people that if you're interested in avoiding
World War III, it seems like you ought to be interested in preventing
them from have (sic) the knowledge necessary to make a nuclear weapon.”
George Bush, War Criminal

I cheered inside my head when I heard, Rep. Stark unbelievably utter his
words condemning the murderous acts of BushCo on the House floor and I was
impressed with his candor, compassion and what I consider an appropriate
amount of rage and honesty. How many of us were not thinking the same
thing about the S-CHIP votes? I knew, however, that it would not be long
until Pete Stark had to apologize and it happened today.

I believe that Speaker Pelosi’s comments about Rep. Stark were utterly
inappropriate and out of line. I believe that when she said that
impeachment was “off the table,” her remarks were not only inappropriate
but also antithetical to our Constitution and directly in opposition to
why the people of this country put Democrats back in power.

We may remind the Speaker of some of the things George has said: He told
us that Saddam was able to reach the Eastern part of the US with drones
that contained either chemical or biological weapons; that the smoking gun
might come in the form of a “mushroom cloud” and that Saddam was also
seeking significant amounts of “yellow cake uranium.” George and his
co-criminals also told us over and over again the 9-11 was the
justification for an attack on Iraq because Saddam had something to do
with 9-11.

It is imperative that Ms. Pelosi be a true leader and lead the charge to
impeach the liars, or at least get the hell out of the way so they can be
impeached. I buried my son for no logical, moral or truthful reason for
God’s sake, and she has neither the integrity or fortitude to finally say
that BushCo has to be stopped before George is the instigator for
Armageddon.,

Ms. Pelosi is not the only one who condemned Rep. Stark; she joined hands
(again) with Republicans to do so. However, for the Republicans to say
that Congressman Stark’s comment demeaned “the troops” is so patently
ridiculous, it is stunningly pathetic. Our troops and their much higher
paid cousins, the mercenary killers, are killing innocent Iraqis. IT IS A
WAR! What do these morally bankrupt Chickenhawks think occurs in war? It
would be better for everyone if “the troops” went over to play pinochle
with the Iraqis, but occupied peoples have an inherent hatred of their
occupiers and want them to leave their country: dead or alive. Congress
wants to hide behind “the troops” by giving BushCo billions of more
dollars to wage the occupation so their lobbyist buddies and campaign
contributors can become richer off of the flesh and blood of those same
troops that they claim to support.

BushCo has over 14 more months to sew their demented seeds of destruction
all over the planet and we must all join Congressman Dennis Kucinich
(D-Oh) in his call to remove them from office not only for their past, but
for their future, illegal wars of aggression, possibly even doing the
unthinkable: using a nuclear weapon. The terrorists that wear Brooks
Brothers and Armani and live and work in the big white house on
Pennsylvania Avenue are more dangerous to our way of life and safety than
any others.

I wish Congressman Stark had not caved to the establishment elitists.
George is the one that needs to apologize to each and every one of us for
killing just about everything that we hold dear: our treasury, our
Constitution, our standing in the international community, our ecology,
our children, and for murdering our hopes and dreams for the future.

When I replace Nancy Pelosi as the Representative from California’s 8th
district, I will fight for the lives, security and prosperity of, not only
my constituents, but for all the human beings in the world. If BushCo is
still in office, God forbid, when I am sworn in, I will do everything in
my power to hold them accountable for their crimes against humanity and I
will never, ever apologize for telling the truth.
