Excellent Synopsis of B** War Lies - 72% Dems support impeachment
http://www.truthout.org/docs_2005/101705L.shtml


<snip>
Unmanned aircraft coming to kill us within 45 minutes! A mushroom cloud! Diseases, poisons, gasses! As a movie this would not make a millionth of the money the real thing cost.



<snip>
Now, when impeachment simply does not exist in the media or Congress, 50 percent of Americans support impeaching Bush if he lied about the war. And a majority believes he lied about the war.

The recent poll on impeachment was conducted by Ipsos Public Affairs, a non-partisan polling company that regularly polls for the Associated Press. But After Downing Street had to raise money and then pay Ipsos to ask the question. And the corporate media hasn't covered the results.

Among Democrats, the poll found that 72 percent favor impeachment. Among independents, 56 percent. So, we are making plans to enlarge our campaign and increase the pressure on the media to talk about it and on Democrats in Congress to introduce it. Not a single Democrat will touch it yet. Please call your Congress Member on Monday morning and ask them to introduce articles of impeachment because Bush lied about the war.

1. 50% of Americans support impeaching Bush if he lied...
I dare say that number will grow when indictments are handed down and reality starts slapping Americans in the face. My, the timing really sucks for GOP congress people facing those pesky midterm elections. Hoot!

4. If the press would get off their asses and lay the whole thing out
there. At least Frank Rick and NYT is brave enough to take it to some other level. Did you read his oped yesterday. I wrote a letter to the editor thanking them for this. Told them that they were the first in MSM to lay this out there although the "virtual media" had had it done for many months now.

3. Recommended.
If the people see impeachment as a necessary thing, it just doesn't matter if the government is too corrupt to do its duty.

The request should still be made.
