Rep. Robert Wexler (D-FL) Formally Calls for Impeachment Hearings
It's a great speech. After the jump, excerpts from an op-ed he co-published last month with two other members of the House Judiciary Committee, Reps Luis Gutierrez (D-IL), and Tammy Baldwin (D-WI).
Impeach Cheney?
Here is another letter to send, like a petition, and Cheney will receive a pink slip (brought to you by codepink). There's no reason not to, right?
Saturday Open Thread
For Health Care, not Warfare.... I found this on Michael Moore's website. I don't know what you guys think of him, but I love him. What else is new? I am in Virginia, leaving tomorrow. Richmond is a beautiful city - I recommend it to everyone.
MoveOn petition against Bush's Libby decision
From an email:
Yesterday, despite overwhelming public opposition, President Bush commuted the sentence of Scooter Libby, the former White House Chief of Staff to Vice President Cheney who was convicted by a jury of lying about a matter of national security. As yet another example of the elitist attitude that defines Republicans in Washington, he shamelessly put partisan loyalties before the fundamental American value of fair and equal justice under the law.
Petition for Free National Wireless Network
Please sign.
Background:
The federal government is on the verge of turning over a huge portion of our public airwaves to companies like AT&T, Verizon, and Comcast--who will use them for private enrichment instead of the public good.
These newly available airwaves are a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to revolutionize Internet access -- beaming high-speed signals to every park bench, coffee shop, workplace, and home in America at more affordable prices than current Internet service. Phone and cable companies don't want this competition to their Internet service--they'd rather purchase the airwaves at auction and sit on them.
Divest for Darfur
SaveDarfur petition to divest from Sudan.
Maybe this is something Lose the Label can get involved in. Divestment is the kind of campaign we could mount with simple e-organizing tools.
