This bulletin repeats at the bottom without code to easily copy and paste into your email lists or blogs. Please distribute this widely.
Nancy Pelosi was entrusted with the responsibility of ending the war and took an oath to support and defend the Constitution of the United States against all enemies, foreign and domestic. The war rages on and Nancy has refused to hold those accountable for this immoral war based on lies. Cindy for Congress is asking the country to stand up against injustice and stand with Cindy Sheehan again on August 6th
August 6th is Hiroshima Day. Hiroshima is a vivid example of the potential destruction US Foreign policy can bring to people all around the world. The USA is the only country to ever have used a Nuclear weapon in battle. It's time to stop!
We must hold the administration that led us into an unjust immoral war based on lies accountable.
August 6th is also the third anniversary of the day Cindy Sheehan first sat down in the ditch outside of George W Bush’s Crawford, Texas ranch to get him to answer the question, “For what noble cause,” did he send her son Casey to die in Iraq!
Stand with Cindy again on August 6th!
August 6th can be the beginning of a shift in paradigm from policies of fear, murder and destruction toward a consciousness that fosters policies of trade, sovereignty, self-determination, cooperation and peace
Let’s make August 6th a day to let Nancy Pelosi know that we, as a nation are serious about peace and holding those accountable who do not stand with us
You don't have to live in the 8th District of California to see that Nancy Pelosi is not interested in PEACE or ACCOUNTABILITY and you have a stake in Cindy’s race for Congress! The nation is affected by Nancy Pelosi’s actions and the nation can send Nancy a message by contributing to Cindy Sheehan for Congress on August 6th
Let’s money bomb the PEACE MOM, Cindy Sheehan on August 6th

Kucinich has the plans ... has had the plans. So glad you are in his corner. This administration must be held accountable.
Best of wishes from an Inland Pass just east of you ... at 3400ft.
We must insist that the press put the following line of questioning to the Presidential candidates and publish the responses.
“Do you repudiate and reject the policy or practice of -
[here insert one from the well known laundry list of Bush/Cheney executive violations of Constitutional limits, law and generally accepted norms of transparency, environmental transgressions and failures the majority of Americans find to be impeachable.]”
After a series of such questions, which must elicit refutations of a number of Bush/Cheney policies and actions, the candidate should be asked if he/she then recognizes their Constitutional responsibility to call for impeachment as the necessary corrective.
While it is to be expected that all candidates will stand for a strong executive, they cannot afford to be seen favoring a secret government abusing and abridging the rights of citizens, weakening environmental protections for the benefit of corporate greed, failing to respect the rule of law at the highest level of government. They must support the Constitutional balance of powers and the rule of law and join Dennis Kucinich in calling for impeachment to make the strongest statement available to condemn policies and actions that undermine our system of government.
If Bush/Cheney are not brought before the bar of impeachment now, as examples of the abuse of executive power, following Presidents will inherit all the precedents for the abuse of signing statements, secret violation of FISA statutes, toleration or tacit approval of torture, extraordinary rendition, cronyism, environmental degradation in the service of corporate greed, diminished protection of the separation of church and state, and the politicization of science.
The 2006 elections put a Democratic majority in power to effect change. The people are not seeing the change they voted for. Listen to the majority of people of this nation, who tell pollsters they want impeachment. A simple change of Party, brought about at the polls, will not make the forceful and specific statement that would stand as the citizen’s demand that their elected officials observe their oath of office requiring them to preserve and protect the Constitution.
Listen to over 85 cities and towns that have passed impeachment resolutions. Listen to the state senate of Vermont. Listen to 16 State Democratic Parties.
The Bush/Cheney administration, with all the power of the Pentagon and the secret powers of the CIA and the NSA at their service, do not protect us from totalitarian domination. The Constitution stands as the bulwark of the citizen’s defense! The Constitution establishes a separation of powers to provide the checks and balances that restrain an Executive’s dangerous or inappropriate assumption of powers. The Congress, the people’s representatives – are charged with the sworn duty to exercise checks on the Executive when that Executive oversteps.
At this point in our history, no political action rises to the level of necessity more urgently than the protection of the Constitution and the restoration of the rule of law. George W. Bush and Richard Cheney must be impeached and the powers they have illegally assumed must be repudiated!
I refuse to fund any party or politician failing to honor their responsibility to the Constitution in calling for investigations into the actions of President George W. Bush and Vice President Richard Cheney leading to the possible filing of articles of impeachment.
Copy those last two paragraphs and print out copies as needed to respond to solicitations from parties and candidates who have not spoken out for impeachment. When the party leadership gets the message that their pocketbooks are being affected, perhaps we'll get some action.
