It's Impeachment Day!!!
http://www.afterdowningstreet.org/petition


"Congress has "investigated" and "overseen" and "held accountable" the unitary executive branch of our government for four months. Officials who have testified have been unable to "recall" their crimes and have refused to produce subpoenaed documents. Now Condoleezza Rice says she's "not inclined" to obey a subpoena requiring her to appear and answer questions about forged documents that were used to mislead our nation into war.

Congress has no power to compel her to testify. Neither do our courts. Law enforcement power belongs to the unitary executive. But executives who fail to faithfully execute the laws of this land can be removed from office. That power rests solely with Congress. It is the only tool remaining to preserve our democracy. It is called impeachment.

Today, Saturday, April 28th, we launch Impeachment Summer with events in 43 states, and several foreign countries, with a fleet of seven airplanes, and with the support of millions of Americans. Find the nearest event and bring your friends:

Please bring a stack of impeachment petitions, some pens, and some clipboards. Collect people's names and contact info on the petitions. Then use that list to organize future activist efforts locally, and also add the names to the national list. You can get the petitions and everything you need at:

1. They need to drop the term "unitary executive"
That there is fascist talk. A28 knows better than to use Herr Decider's patois.
