[Merriam Kathaleen]

Hi All,

*IMPEACHMENT HEARINGS COULD START HAPPENING SOON!!!!!  (see below a 
press release from the National Impeachment Network lobbying delegation)*
Things are taking place in Washington D.C. that point to the beginning 
of impeachment hearings and we here locally will continue to do our job 
to help everything along.  We will be out in front of Rep. Zoe Lofgren's 
district office showing her our support for her to DO THE RIGHT THING!!

This is our 35th consecutive week. Please join us this Friday, 7/11 in 
front of Lofgren's office from 3:00pm - 6:00pm.  We want a large 
presence demanding she "*DO HER JOB*."  Zoe's office is at 635 N. 1st 
St., San Jose. (Between Taylor & Jackson St. across from the IHOP 
restaurant/Light Rail stop is corner of Jackson St on 1st St.)  We want 
to be loud and proud for Impeachment hearings for Cheney and Bush.

SEE YOU THERE.

Thanks,
Merriam

MEDIA ALERT
July 2008
National Impeachment Network

Aspokesperson for a National Impeachment Network (NIN) lobbying 
delegation, which has been meeting with Congress members in WashingtonDC 
this week, said "There is clear evidence that the mood of Congress has 
shifted. Impeachment hearings could start this month. It appears that 
hearings will likely focus on impeachable offenses not requiring 
testimony and lengthy investigations because evidence is on the public 
record -- the administration's refusal to honor subpoenas, the nearly800 
signing statements used to alter the intent of legislation passed by 
Congress, and the deliberate misinformation given to Congress to get 
approval for going to war. We are very optimistic that Cheney and Bush 
are finally going to be held to account and investigated."  


Said another member of the NIN delegation, "The reception we've received 
has been positively amazing. Every Representative we've met with 
supports impeachment strongly. Our team is working hard and will 
continue lobbying efforts through the month of July. We'll be there 
tomorrow when Kucinich introduces his new resolution for impeaching Bush 
for the deliberate intelligence deceptions leading to the Iraq War. And 
Judiciary Committee Chair John Conyers invited the group to sit in on 
the Judiciary Committee hearing where Karl Rove is expected to be cited 
for contempt of Congress. Conyers told the group that he would like to 
deliver the inherent contempt citation to Rove himself. This is 
incredibly exciting. The majority of Americans favor impeachment and 
want the Democratic Party to listen to the grassroots. Congress members 
are going to insist on restoring their oversight authority. We should 
take heart that the breakthrough we've been seeking appears to finally 
be happening."
