How Many SMOKING GUNS Does It Take To Make A Mushroom Cloud?

From Activist website

Every day brings new and even more damning evidence of the willful lies told by the White House to bait the American people into the invasion and occupation of Iraq, which has wrecked our budget, our military and our respect worldwide. Oil prices are soaring with no end in sight as a direct result of the administration's perverse and bungled military threats. The more they talk about nuking Iran the more gas prices will skyrocket. And people ask, what WILL it take to actually commence impeachment of Bush and Cheney?What it will take --- are more people to speak out, and in particular brave and courageous NEW candidates for office, who are not afraid to speak the truth which must be spoken. And when they DO, like Charles W. Sanders is doing in the 3rd district of OH right now, progressives must throw the full weight of our support behind them. Charles has an action page getting thousands of submissions from all over the country calling for the IMMEDIATE impeachment of both Bush and Cheney. Sanders puts his position succinctly:

As Americans, we are very proud of our heritage, but I wonder what future generations will think if we sit idly by and do nothing when we actually do know the truth, that the White House knew there were no weapons of mass destruction. The United States of America is plagued with continual mission creep in Iraq and increasing cost with no retribution in sight. We were told that Iraq, presently sitting on top of two trillion gallons of unrefined crude, would be able to pay for its own reconstruction. Three years ago, the Administration had that specific proposal before it and failed to pursue it because it was a Democratic idea. This Administration has never vetoed a spending bill and we are over eight trillion dollars in debt. Remember the Downing Street Memo? It was just swept under the table. The normal response by this White House is change the theme and fire anybody who disagrees with their official version. Enough is enough. There are 1000 days left, honesty, integrity and trust really do matter. I will stand up for the truth, please join me in cleaning up Washington.

Sanders is running as many radio spots in his home district as he can, calling on all his constituents to raise their own voices, and is showing just the kind of leadership the country needs. Progressives can make an example of him, and show other candidates that if they show real backbone they will get the support of the people too.
