It is time for the people to put impeachment on the table!
Iraq spins out of control. Bush escalates and threatens still wider
war with Iran. The Bush program of torture and illegal detentions
continues. These are war crimes and crimes against humanity.
Bush’s full program remains in effect. NSA Spying, the Patriot Act,
the Military Commission Act: all continue. And all are illegal. The
whole program of the Bush Administration must be thoroughly repudiated
by removing him from office before his term expires; otherwise, the
whole direction he has taken society will be condoned, legitimated, and
made permanent.
A movement to Impeach Bush for War Crimes
can quickly advance the whole struggle; making ending the war and
removing Bush a reality. As impeachment becomes imminent and his war
options grow more limited; the more his war crimes are exposed, the
greater the impetus for his removal and repudiation.
Join
activists, leaders, academics, and writers including Dennis Loo, Ted
Glick, David Swanson, Bob Fertik, Daphne Wysham, Steve Cobble, Laura
Flanders of Air America radio, Sunsara Taylor, Liam Madden, and many more.
