A letter in support of Cheney impeachment HR 333
Here's a letter i just sent to my Representative in support the Kucinich bill to impeach VP Cheney.
They CAN'T continue to ignore the will of the people!!

Dear Representative Tom Allen,

I want to STRONGLY encourage you to stand up for the Constitution and support the impeachment of Vice President Cheney (HR 333). I am among the majority of my friends and colleagues that are outraged by his actions: lying us into an illegal and ideological war using obviously cooked and spun intelligence; the actions of torture of innocents and illegal wiretapping of US citizens; and his relentless spitting on the Constitution. We are equally outraged that nothing has been done to hold Bush and Cheney accountable for their illegal acts that have killed 4000 Americans and millions of Iraqis, violated our civil rights, and ruined our standing in the world. Now they want to distract us again by saber-rattling and threatening to bomb IRAN... (Conveniently raising oil prices to the benefit of their oil and defense industry constituents). They will not stop their run on power unless they are checked NOW. We can't wait for the 2008 election as this could be too late for actions against Iran, and would set a dangerous precedent for future president to act in an imperial manner. It is your constitutional duty to impeach when high crimes and misdemeanors are perpetrated by this Executive Branch. Their actions are FAR WORSE than Watergate, and to do nothing says you accept their illegal acts, and their rhetorical endless "war on terror" to justify any imperial action by this or future Presidents.

I'm tired of fear and spin being used as a weapon to defeat reason and intelligent action. I'm tired of chaos being sowed to push their radical conservative agenda. I'm angry at the democratically controlled congress for sitting on their hands while my country is morally ruined and fiscally bankrupted. Cheney and Bush's actions are not protecting us, but actually harming our safety and the interests of the American people. They do not stand for the principles that founded this nation or the rule of law. This is not the country the founders struggled so hard to create in opposition to the lessons of imperial England. We need action now to restore and preserve the Constitution. As my representative in Congress, I urge you to support this effort on my behalf.

If you choose not to support this effort, I expect a detailed and reasoned response and an accounting of the number of letters and emails you received either supporting or not supporting impeachment from those you represent.

Sincerely,

Bradford White

Right now there is an ember of freedom in the House Judiciary Committee
with the notion of holding Dick Cheney accountable for his actions needs
looking into. Can the American public put enough pressure on the House
so as that spark of real liberty is not put out by the Right Wing, a Controlled
media, and spineless democrats who care more about their jobs then the
U.S. Constitution.


All Americans who care about the "Rule of Law v the Ruleof Man," needs to
get behind a fair and open investigation into Lord Cheney and what he has done.

I'm hearing from other threads that freshmen member are hesitant to support impeachment for fear of controversy and losing their districts. They appear to be more worried about holding on to their office than upholding their constitutional duty!! IT STOPS HERE!! We need to put the pressure on the freshman class!!!

5. They and we have far more to fear if they all do not do their jobs.
Looking into Cheney is a no brainier and guaranteed body blow
to these thugs who have stolen America so as to make a buck
no matter what.

They (Congress) needs to do their Constitutional duty. E.O.S.
