"Impeach Cheney" the number 1 video on Youtube
Edited on Mon Jul-09-07 04:10 AM by garybeck

Want to Impeach Cheney? Think July 23rd
http://afterdowningstreet.org/node/24450
By David Swanson

The impeachment movement is gaining traction, and now - over the next two weeks - is the time to push it all the way to success. Over the weekend, supporters of impeachment made "Impeach Cheney" the number 1 video on Youtube. On Friday, for the first time, a polling company asked Americans if they want Cheney impeached. A majority of 54% said Yes, and the poll was reported in the media. Congressman John Conyers even cited it on ABC's "This Week" on Sunday.

On July 4, the day of throwing off King Georges, an Impeach Bush and Cheney petition passed 100,000 signatures! So now we're raising the bar to 1 million: http://www.afterdowningstreet.org/petition Also on July 4, Los Angeles opened an Impeachment Center, and on July 5 Philadelphia held an impeachment forum (here's the video).

But the date to keep in mind is July 23, 2007. That will be the fifth anniversary of the Downing Street Meeting, the meeting at Number 10 Downing Street at which the head of British intelligence reported that Bush and Cheney were intent on invading Iraq and were going to "fix the intelligence and facts around the policy." The meeting was recorded in the Downing Street Minutes which were leaked in May 2005. It was then that we launched a coalition and a website at AfterDowningStreet.org in order to move the Congress and the media toward impeachment.

This July 23rd, a Monday, Cindy Sheehan will lead a march from Arlington National Cemetery (gather there at 10 a.m.) to Capitol Hill, to the office of Congressman John Conyers to ask him to move forward with impeachment.

7. Too dangerous to have in office for another 1 1/2 years.
Every day more and more damage is being done by this
administration. 
The lying, the war, breaking the law (wiretapping), For me,
Libby was the cherry on the cake. We can't afford to be
patient anymore. IMPEACH now.

8. Its very good, but it doesn't mention Cheney's role in outing Valerie Plame.
I guess because there is no tape to play of his doing so, however, there is the note Cheney wrote that was part of the evidence in the Libby trial.
War profiteering and Halliburton's no bid contracts should have been mentioned too. IMHO, that is the part of this that less 'aware' Americans can really get with, the fact that Cheney is making billions off of this war, and is ready, willing, and able to send more people's children to die for more oil profits, hell, they don't even pay taxes on that obscene profit since they've now become a company in the United Arab Emirates. Not quite sure how that can be worked into articles of impeachment however. It really seems that the House has more than enough evidence that the American people are behind the impeachment of the President of Vice, Richard Cheney.

10. I agree, the Plame affair is important because it involves
direct acts of treason and it implicates the president too. It really ties everything together, including the 16 words, which alone are an impeachable offense because it's illegal to lie to Congress.
