Picture Of Conyers Taking Signatures To White House


Rep. John Conyers, D-Mich., center, ranking Democrat on the House Judiciary Committee, is helped by Rep. Maxine Waters, D-Calif., front row 2nd left, and Rep. Shelia Jackson Lee, left, to hand-deliver petitions to the White House, outside the Northwest Appointment gate of the White House, Thursday, June 16, 2005 in Washington. The petitions are signed by 105 members of Congress and more than 540,000 Americans demanding that President Bush provide a detailed response to the evidence in the "Downing Street Memo". The so-called "Downing Street memo" says the Bush administration believed that war was inevitable and was determined to use intelligence about weapons of mass destruction to justify the ouster of Saddam (AP Photo/Pablo Martinez Monsivais)

15. God, how can any American not LOVE this Statesman!
What a proud moment in America's history. Where would we be without Congressman John Conyers, I ask and all of his supporting House Rep's.

You're looking at the World's hero. Shew.

17. Conyers for president!
This man has got what it takes to lead our country. It's reprehensible that this historic moment was relegated to the basement of the capitol. History will frown upon the GOP's conduct today.

The light of the American Dream -- what America *can* be -- burned brightly today.

23. so that's what over half a million signatures looks like...
...carried by an American hero!

Thank you Congressman Conyers! We love you for being a good person and for standing up for the truth!

I am saving this picture as a memento of this day. I took the afternoon off to watch the hearings. This means so much to me. I was even dreaming about it all last night.

25. We are seeing one of the great American patriots in action.
This is simply breath taking. Rep. Conyers doesn't need to do this and it doesn't gain him anything personally. He is taking on the real fight--saving our country from a bunch of war-mongering thugs--as a selfless act. When he published the Conyers Report on Ohio, he did it through a low cost approach and contributed his share to the cause. Compare that to just about any politician whose written a book. He's the man of the hour and the man who has started the movement to bring true good faith and trust to government (don't think we've had much before now, even under tolerable leaders).

Contact the DNC and Tell Them to Do More to Stop Election Fraud

28. John Conyers, a man of courage and conviction
A real American hero. Bless Representative Conyers and Rep, Maxine Waters and Rep. Sheila Jackson Lee for standing up for America when others won't. They do it all the time because it's the right thing to do.

I love them!

Sonia
