According to the polls, a majority of Americans support the impeachment of George Bush and Dick Cheney. But few Americans know there is a nationwide grassroots impeachment movement because the Corporate Media refuses to report on our efforts on orders from Karl Rove.

So what can we do about it? How about making some old-fashioned noise - and breaking new ground in high-tech grassroots organizing! HonkToImpeach is simple:

  1. We'll hit busy intersections with signs asking cars to Honk To Impeach Bush - that's the old-fashioned noise-making part
  2. We'll also hold signs saying PASSENGERS: TEXT "IMPEACH" to 30644 - that's the new high-tech grassroots organizing, which will allow us to "sign up" all the honkers via text messaging for future organizing
  3. We'll post photos and videos of our actions to inspire more activism here:

I saw a guy who goes to gym I go to who has a T-shirt that shows a pic of Dick Cheney. The shirt said Veterans against the real enemy lol.

My dad who is a Veteran (and usED to be a Rep) wanted one after I told him about it but my Mom had a "heart attack" saying he would be arrested,etc lol, So he opted not to .

I did email Pelosi about impeachment but I have the feeling it falls on deaf ears.

Are you serious about Karl Rove?

because I really wonder what is up with the MSM. But I'm worried more about a conspiracy between the Democratic leaders and the media. I think it's more that they don't want to look 'stupid.' A guy I approached today with a petition condescendingly lectured me that I was not being "politically sophisticated" and that impeachment is "silly." I think that's where our journalists are...when they are not covering Paris Hilton's jail break.

I'm sceptical. I'm also a foreigner. An Australian. I'm sure there are media outlets in the world that don't give a damn about Karl Rove. If you've got a verifiable communication or directive from Rove I reckon one of them would break this problem for you. Maybe a British or French media centre - those countries have traditions of free speach are UN Permanent Security Council members and so their media (or some of it ought to still have some freedom to operate as tellers of important truth).

Otherwise my feeling is a bit like lisamosc's I think the media just aren't going with this quite yet.

Really..

Bob and David, I'd add another suggestion for your "HONK TO IMPEACH" campaigners. When drivers are stopped for redlights offer them a flyer with impeach offenses summarizes, along with contact information for key congresspersons, plus one or two postcards with an impeachment message. They can choose who to send it to. In West Chester, PA, we have used pink postcards with the opening line: "SEND BUSH AND CHENEY THEIR PINK SLIPS!" At the last HONK-IN close to 300 drivers took the materials. Remember, the Honks won't be heard in DC but those postcards will be read, and you're recruiting new activists this way too!

Impeachment?

With Nancy Pelosi coming in as the next president I can see why some Democrats are leery to impeach this executive for changing the WMD data to go to war in Iraq. She so inept the congress rubber stamped the old republican budget. You win health care for kids by flooding the republican districts against with all the money and activists that are possible by cutting all the money given to locked districts which receive unneeded help. That would require leadership sadly lacking in the Democratic Party. Reid whose sons are paid to lobby him, only shows the democrats too are the party of the connected, by the connected, for the connected. After 8 years of the worst executive branch in my lifetime, I expect the democrats to create the same or better opportunities for my children than I had. We have the natural resources, we have an educated populace, we don't have the will to provide a better life for all Americans. Our present gov't is run by those that get it re-elected, big money, not the average Joe. Message to the democrats "Average Joe is fed up with you."

Mysterioso, you keep coming up with all these Rovian...

talking points. Try and remember that while you are entitled to your OWN opinions, you are not entitled to your own facts.

You had three posts removed for being right-wing propoganda...OLD propoganda.

FYI: Gore did not lie about the internet; the SCOTUS did not rule that the Florida election process was flawed(State's Rights) and more.

Sorry chum, you might be able to peddle this stuff on other sites, but not on this one.

Not Enough Votes

I would love to see Bush and Cheney get impeached, especially for starting the Iraq War, and probably the soon to be Iran War, for money (Halliburton and other Contractors receiving billion dollar, non-competitive bids with their share prices skyrocketing in a sickening way) and for oil (fear and war that has seen oil barrel prices jump from $22 to $90 a barrel since the start of the Iraq War).

However, I don't see how we can get the votes. We need a 2/3 majority in both house and senate to impeach. Our best bet is once Hillary or Barack become President, we can have court hearings to send both of them to prision for War Crimes and we will demand that Hillary or Barack not pardon them once they are convicted.

Ann, you are confusing

Ann, you are confusing impeachment with removal from office by a trial in the Senate. It does not require a 2/3 majority to impeach. Passage of Articles of Impeachment only requires a "simple majority" by the House of Representatives. The process then moves to the Senate for the trial phase, where a 2/3 majority is required to remove the impeached individual from office. Bill Clinton was impeached by the House, but found "not guilty" by the Senate.

Once any civil officer (including the President or VP) has been impeached by the House, they are no longer eligible for a pardon.

We've been honking to impeach 2x a week for a couple of years. See peacehouseok.org. (I'll alert them to the texting info. How will that get back to the locals?)

Even in "red" OK, we get lots of enthusiastic noise from the drivers going by.

According to the polls page your blog is linked to the majority of Americans OPPOSE impeachment. I think it is time to put down your signs, stop disturbing the peace and get a LIFE.

Mason, the majority of Americans do indeed...

favor the impeachment of both Bush and Cheney. Further, their impeachment is mandated by the Constitution for the many crimes they have committed.

Why do you feel this is not so?

For example:

...How, as a welfare whore, you cheer on paying the troops below market wages instead of paying for services rendered.

...How, with your nose deep inside your boss's ass, you secure conservative incomes for the vast majority of Americans (who provide the innovation and the labor) while concurrently ensuring obscene incomes for a microscopic minority of Aristocrats who provide near nothing in proportion to their take.

...How, with you infantile knowledge of the world, allowed our troops in Afghanistan to be f@@@ed over by military strategy based on greed. World War III could have been waged in Afghanistan and Bin Laden's head secured, with a rapid return to peace and economic power. Instead we get the clusterf@@@ in Iraq. Historic Surpluses turned to Historic Deficits. 1 Buck a Gallon Gas turned into 3 buck a Gallon Gas. Etc.

...How you and your ilk left the troops to burn in Stop Loss rather than enlisting. I mean there were tens of millions of "men" like you who could have enlisted rather than simply cheering on others to invade Iraq.

...Etc.

Just admit it, you're a Conservative.

In all fairness would you admit it?

Would you admit being a republican? It's the party that buggers little boys and condones it.

Impeach Obama; Impeach the fraud; Impeach the liar.

This will be the cry of America if he does not immediately pull US out of war. If not it will become his war and the blood will cry out. He better lower my taxes immediately and give me some of the wealth. And I want free healthcare plus the proper healthy food to keep me healthy so I don't need to catch the bus to go to the Dr. Speaking of the bus,I want a car to get to the Dr's office. I don't want just any car; I want a nice one like the rich folk. He better not bail out the rich folks that own homes. If he does then I want one too. I want so much from B.O. that I can't write it all right now. But I know he promised because I heard him say so. I want some of that wealth. NOW! I don't care if he's not a citizen or if he's one of them marxist or he wants to sit down with the bad guys. I don't give a crap. Just give me some of that wealth.

Not free.

Not one damned "free" thing is being considered.

This is not free:

COMMUNISM = EVERYONE GETS THE SAME INCOME.

MONOPOLY = ONE GUY GETS IT ALL.

America needs defending from BOTH.

Presently, 400 Americans own MORE of this Nation that the bottom 150 million do. THAT IS ARISTOCRACY.

(And before you cry that those folks are bums, or stupid, note that they are SOLDIERS, SCIENTISTS, ETC).

This Aristocracy came about because Conservative men have no balls. They are mid level hacks who do what their bosses tell them to do rather than do what their bosses DO. They allow MASSIVE welfare for the few. Case in point: Wars are fought to defend a Nation's wealth. You should pay for that defense, in proportion to that portion of the Nation that you OWN, and therefore need defending. The richest few have NOT done this these past 8 years and have therefore extracted about $10,000 of capital from every one of the households in the USA.

That capital should be returned to those who do the soldiering, the laboring, and the innovating.

If you like, I will be happy to converse with you on any point. Know this however, I despise weaklings. I despise the effeminate conservative male. I despise the weak minded.

I understand you came here ready to battle strawmen. Instead, why not actually face truisms?

I'll predict how this conversation will go however from the answer to a single question: How old is the earth?

In addition...

...your deep hatred of America and Jesus, revealed by your rhetoric, gives pause.

Listen:

-Soldiers are NOT overpaid!

-The Sermon on the Mount is not hogwash!

-The MASSIVE taxation by Republicans must end!

-The troops should NOT be left to rot in Stop Loss while conservative men fail to enlist! (All the while fanning the flames of inane military policy!)

-etc.

And in agreement:

  • Jim's picture

    Want to meet our members? Click 'Join' above!

If Obama does anything to harm the vast working, soldiering, and innovating majority (as opposed to the "living on grand daddy's cash" set)

THEN

Obama is being Conservative and should be booted from office just as Americans booted the last bit of dullards from office.

----

And lest you find comfort in misunderstandings:

Conservative folks are AOK. Anti Choice, I understand. Pro death penalty, I understand. Bash a thief's skull in, I understand. etc.

It is Political Conservatives, I speak of. Those who take a truth in one area of life, apply it beyond its range of applicability, and then whine when anyone with balls and common sense calls them on it.
