A March On Washington - The Congress - Is Needed In January
Edited on Sat Dec-17-05 03:10 PM by ThomWV
On the day in January that the House of Representatives resumes its session it should be met with 500,000 persons in the street in front of the Capital Building demanding the Impeachment of George W. Bush.

God dam it, I'm going. I swear to god, if I am the only person there holding a sign demanding impeachment on that day at least I will be there. Please join me.

On Edit: January 31, 2006 the House of Representatives, which is the body which must initiate Impeachement proceedings, will sit for the second session of this Congress. The first vote is to be cast at 6:30 PM. If there were a half a million people out front that first vote just might be to call for an inquiry into impeachment. All it would take would be me and about a half a million of you.

world can't wait is marching on Washington to protest the Bushies State of the Mess speech

http://www.worldcantwait.net/

) On the night of Bush’s State of the Union address: In large cities and small towns all across the country - join in rallies to make the demand that "Bush Step Down" the news & message of the day. At 9pm EST - just as Bush starts to speak we will bring on the noise and drown out his address - bring your voi ce, and make a commitment to the world that not another year will be lived under this criminal regime.

2) Demonstrate the following Saturday in Washington DC to deliver the people's verdict on Bush’s criminal regime - "Bush Step down and take your program with you!" Contact your local chapter to purchase your plane or bus ticket now.

4. Bookmarked and Rec'd
But silence and paralysis are NOT acceptable. That which you will not resist and mobilize to stop, you will learn — or be forced — to accept. There is no escaping it: the whole disastrous course of this Bush regime must be STOPPED. And we must take the responsibility to do it.

And there is a way. We are talking about something on a scale that can really make a huge change in this country and in the world. We need more than fighting Bush's outrages one at a time, constantly losing ground to the whole onslaught. We must, and can, aim to create a political situation where the Bush regime's program is repudiated, where Bush himself is driven from office, and where the whole direction he has been taking society is reversed. We, in our millions, must and can take responsibility to change the course of history.

Acting in this way, we join with and give support and heart to people all over the globe who so urgently need and want this regime to be stopped. 

This will not be easy. If we speak the truth, they will try to silence us. If we act, they will to try to stop us. But we speak for the majority, here and around the world, and as we get this going we are going to reach out to the people who have been so badly fooled by Bush and we are NOT going to stop.
