So here is my letter to conyers


Chairman John Conyers
2138 Rayburn House Office Building
Washington, DC 20515
p/202-225-3951

Tuesday, November 6, 2007

Dear Congressman Conyers,

Today the House sent H.R. 333 to your committee. Those who are cynical about the process say that this is for you to kill it, or let it die a slow death. I will remind you that the Vice President of the United States has committed crimes, and that Impeachment is the remedy against Tyranny bequeathed to us by the Founding Fathers.

We are living in extremely dangerous times, and the country is on the edge of dictatorship and war with Iran. The Vice-President is indeed pushing for yet another war, based on the Plan for the New American Century. They are also pushing for a further push-back on the civil rights of the American people.

The Vice President once said that they would continue to push until there was some push-back. We, the American People, are begging you to do what you have a duty to do. Launch the investigations.

We do not choose our time in history, but we choose what to do when faced with times like ours.

Do the American people proud and do your duty.

Sincerely,

3. I Believed Conyers Was The One Who Wanted This
Once I saw him sitting on things and taking a year to make one move and mostly, I found out that he didn't even sign on for impeachment, i realized:


"oh, we're being played again. He's good-cop, fighting for us so, we don'thave to take to the streets and be unreasonable. As long as we THINK they'll handle it, we'll sit back and let them do their jobs because we already have jobs"

But, I believe that we get these knights for justice just to keep the pressure-cooker from boiling over. The day americans honestly feel NO ONE is working for change for them, they will be in the streets and they will not go away

We will have true civil unrest and things may get burned down before it's over

But, to have a leader on the case case the pot from ever boiling over abd they wind out the clock on us


Conyers ahs betrayed us. He was always going to. Hindsight is 20/20 so, just look at how he has handled his great impeachment campaign. Lots of TALK and papers being signed but, not by him. He played us like Nancy has and Hillary will.

Kucinich found away to slide it under the door and actually call Conyer's bluff. Well, now, Conyers has to come straight with the truth "I'm Not Impeaching Anybody"


(sung to the tune of the Mickey Mouse Club)

F_U_C - K_E_D - HEY! We're Fucked Again

Fucked Again
Fucked Again
Forever Let Us Hold Our Asses High, High, High

So, Bend On Over, Pull 'Em Down
And, Take It In The End
F_U_C - K_E_D - HEY! We're Fucked Again
