Political Cortex: Brain Food for the Body Politic

Hollywood actor and activist Ed Asner wrote a letter concerning the hearing.  The letter expressed his support for the resolution, which indicts Bush for "invading Iraq without just cause or provocation."

Bush and Cheney are equally culpable for raping the Constitution at home as well as abroad through the continuing use of 9/11 to justify invasions of privacy.  

How can we forget as well the gross violations of international law as well as the Constitution in pathetic waterboarding episodes in addition to numerous other unlawful detentions and torture of those the administration suspects of involvement in terrorism.  

The term terrorism is used in the broadest and most applicable sense to justify continuing violations of law and human decency.

As the vigilant VoteToImpeach.org site states:

"We are keeping the pressure on and `impeachment' has become a household word.  We are mobilizing the impeachment movement for the anti-war actions on the 5th anniversary of the war.  We are lobbying Congress.  We are taking out impeachment advertisements.  We are telling the courageous people of Brattleboro that they speak for millions more.  We are telling the New Hampshire activists who filled the State House yesterday that people from the other 49 states stand with them."

These grievous actions in gross violation of the Constitution should not stand.  Concerned citizens should unite to vigorously lobby members of Congress to act expeditiously on the vital issue of impeachment.
