A Progressive Call To Action

Hey folks! We are addressing the wrong issues and arguing the wrong arguments.

There is only one overriding issue that the Congress of the United States should be addressing today and that is how to get George W. Bush and Dick Cheney out of the White House before they set the world in flames. I would like to see a full impeachment process that would carefully lay all of their crimes on the table, but we may not have time for that. A declaration of incompetence, and I think a good case could be made under the provisions of the 22nd? amendment, might be a reasonable first step but that would leave Cheney with his hands on the nuclear levers for at least a short period. Also not a desireable scenario. I'll leave it to the folks who know the minituae of the Constitution to figure out the steps necessary. What we "ordinary" folks can do is this, contact your Representative(http://www.house.gov, use the form at the top of the page), contact both your Senators (http://senate.gov,use the link at the upper right), put pressure on your state legislature (action can be initiated from the state level), contact newspapers, contact TV and radio stations. In other words, make noise, raise your voices to a level where they can't be ignored. Blog, if not in your own blog, comment in other blogs. The overriding goal is to get Bush and Cheney out of the equation as fast as possible and it will be done if we let those with the power to do it know, in clear, loud voices, that we want it done. In every poll published lately, the overwhelming majority of Americans are unhappy with the way things are going. Raise your voices, folks and raise them loud and often. The goal is Bush and Cheney out (and hopefully in shackles) before this year is out. From that, all else flows. Let's work for that like we've never worked for anything, then we can turn our attention to the 2008 elections.
