Is America finally waking? Are we ever going to hold BushCo. accountable?
Forgive me if I seem to have trouble articulating...

We all know that the things that Bush and his adminstration has done are crimes. Crimes against the Constitution, crimes against humanity, and other crimes he has committed.
So are we now just realizing it? Is the rest of America starting to catch up to what Bush has been doing since his first "election" in 2000? Are Americans finally starting to listen to what we have been trying to say since the beginning?

We are hearing more and more everyday and even our senators and congressmen are starting to catch drift.

But is this enough? Talks of censure and impeachment ring through the air. But is anyone actually going to take action? Time and time again we have seen our congresspeople talk about things but don't actually do it. Will they come through this time?

We need to let our congresspeople know.. know that we are not going to let Bush slide away anymore.. that we are going to hold him accountable, if we are able to do this to common criminals, why not Bush? Let's hold him accountable like the criminal he is. A criminal who disregards the Constitution, the very ideals he has sworn to uphold and protect. A criminal that has waged a very unjust war for profit. A criminal who has brutalized countless humans in this war. A criminal who invades in on common, decent American citizens in the name of "terrorism." He is a criminal, period. So when are we going to hold him responsible?

We talk, and now it time to really take action.

For those who are, I applaud him. Just because Bush is rich and in a position of power, doesn't mean that he is any more better than the rest of us. He is just another human being that should be held accountable for his actions.

This is all I can say now, there is more but tonight my mind is a bit on the fritz. I don't mean to start any arguments as these are my opinions.

1. Throw Diebold and ES&S election theft machines into 'Boston Harbor' NOW!
I'm not against raising hell with Congress, calling, writing, cornering, questioning, challenging, pressuring and protesting the jerks who sold away our right to vote to Bushite corporations and their "trade secret," proprietary vote tabulation, and all the other horrors they and the Bush junta have brought us. It's our moral duty as citizens and human beings, and it helps educate people, but we really have to target the mechanism of our sovereignty--honest, verifiable, TRANSPARENT elections--and RESTORE our right to vote, or our democracy is over. Arguing with them does no good as to changing policy. They are not beholden to us anymore. We MUST change that, if we want our country back.
