Thanks so much! He's still going. We just hit 'making secret laws'.

About damn time.

COOL!

This is the best thing I've seen on the shit box in a long time!

Whoa. We're just up to article 24, spying on citizens without a warrant. I'd better get myself a cold one.

Bless his heart.

Don't worry, as soon as he's done Pelosi will declare it all off the table.

Duncan: Well, call her 1-202-225-0100 and DEMAND IMPEACHMENT. (DC business hours)

Mike, maybe you could get to work on impeaching HER. Has SHE not betrayed us by consistently refusing to impeach? And YOUR tax dollars would pay for her, if you moved to California.

StO: First things first---George and Dick. I was born and raised in good old Cal, I just think I'll stay in Wyoming.

Pelosi's office keeps shunting me to some voice mail.

I called Conyers and my blue dog rep, Shuler. Interestingly, the Repub challenger is getting quite vocal about impeachment of bush - for failure to stop all the immigrants flooding to our country. Reminded me of Judith Miller going to jail for the wrong reasons.

If I hadn't stumbled across it last night while channel surfing, I would have never known. I looked through several news sites this morning and none of them mentioned it. Evidently, information about which celebrity is on which diet is more important than the possible impeachment of the President. And my friends and family wonder why I want to emigrate.

President Bush’s foreign policy has done more to exacerbate rather than alleviate global terrorism.

Susan: I make my demand short to avoid the voicemail. APPARENTLY the Dems will fight IMPEACHMENT tooth and nail(go figure), while the Republicans would just as soon excise the cancer that's killing them(and they know it they just don't want to initiate it). Its the volume of calls that will break them so spread it around. I call most everyday and have been put on hold only once (last week). When I get put on hold a lot is when WE will be getting somewhere. (doing nothing IS what got US here)
