WOW! Nice e-mail from democrats.com
Impeach Alberto Gonzales

Today (Monday) the Senate will vote on a "no-confidence" resolution against Attorney General Alberto Gonzales for lying about ... well, everything. Of couse we want all Senators to vote "yes" but that's not nearly enough for the man who authorized illegal wiretapping of thousands (millions?) of U.S. citizens and illegal torture of anyone Emperor Bush deems an "enemy combatant." For those and other reasons, tell your Senators and Representatives to Impeach Alberto Gonzales:

Have a "War Made Easy" House Party

The new film "War Made Easy: How Presidents and Pundits Keep Spinning Us to Death" makes arguing against wars easy. If you get into a debate about war, just make the points made so clearly in this film, or - better yet - convince a war supporter to watch the film.
