A call to action
I've had it. After listening to the buffoons on c-span trying to justify
the NSA spying on U.S. citizens, I can't take it anymore! Where the hell did our country go? We're actually having a debate on whether to allow torture or not(?)!!!!

After watching several constitutional scholars and lawyers this morning, George Wiretap Bush has admitted in public, on TV, that he committed a felony. He seems to believe that he is above the law, or the law is whatever he says it is.

I'm going to spend the next 60 days, because of the recess. spending every spare moment I have, calling, faxing, and e-mailing every Senator and member of congress demanding immediate impeachment of the entire administration, and including Hastert, Stevens, and anyone else in the line of succession.

Everybody do it! Enough is enough! Get rid of these criminals.

1. Many in Congress are complicit.
What makes you think we can get them to change course? A few will stand up but not enough. We have to wait things out and hope there is an upheaval in the next elections. Either that, or Fitz's investigations can disgust enough people and the media decides to excercise responsible journalism.

2. I'm Agree With You, BUT!!
Just turned OFF C-Span... Senator Saxby Chambliss is on right now and I JUST CAN'T TAKE IT ANYMORE!!

I think there's a list around here somewhere as to how to reach Congressmen, however many of them simply reply by the "standard" thank you for contacting us, we will take the matter under consideration. THEY (whoever THEY are) say they listen to their constituents, but since Cruella is mine... well, I wonder!! I've tried so many times in the past and still find myself scratching my head. I just don't know how much more time I really want to "let them know!" Because THEY ALREADY KNOW!!

But I do agree we are UNDER ATTACK here in America!!!

3. I just called my congressmans office
And my senator. I asked them to please not send their usual canned response back this time. I want action. I'm also calling Congressman Kucinich's office. He's not my Congressman anymore, but he's my favorite. And more importantly, he has balls!

6. I'm working on my letter
to Chambliss right now. We have to be very vocal about this. * has violated his sworn Oath of Office and cirmvented the Bill of Rights. He must be removed from office.

4. IMPORTANT - If you are calling today!
The House just passed a nightmare version of the budget - it includes provisions to gut campaign finance laws; open up ANWR; to give a PALTRY sum to Hurricane Survivors -

Call your Senators and tell them that we want a MORAL budget - do not cut 95 BILLION in taxes for the filthy rich and then brag about giving $29 billion to greedy crony-owned corporations and faith-based charities!

SCUM! SCUM! SCUM! SCUM! SCUM! SCUM! SCUM! SCUM!

More on what they SHOULD be doing to hurricane survivors:
