The Orange Revolution Begins July 23On July 23, 2002, the head of British intelligence reported that Bush and Cheney were intent on invading Iraq and planned to "fix the intelligence and facts around the policy". Five years later a million people have died in Iraq as a direct result of these lies with no end in sight. Torture has been institutionalized, habeaus corpus eviscerated, and illegal spying made routine. New Orleans lies devastated along with the Constitution and the rule of law. And Bush and Cheney are making a mockery of the Democrats' feeble gestures towards accountability. Enough is enough and this July 23rd, we will launch a new phase in the movement for peace and justice. We call it the Orange Revolution because starting that day wearing orange will signify that you want Congress to START IMPEACHMENT and STOP THE WAR. The majority of Americans want to see Bush and Cheney impeached and want an immediate end to this war are made effectively invisible by a complicit media. Wearing orange will be our signal to each other--and to the world--about where we stand. Anything orange will do: a t-shirt, a wristband, your shoelaces--get creative and post your ideas and photos on ImpeachSpace.com. Here are a couple of great items you can wear designed specifically for the Orange Revolution:
The Orange Revolution will be launched with acts of civil disobedience in Washington and elsewhere to show Congress that we are serious. In Washington, Cindy Sheehan, Ray McGovern, Rev. Lennox Yearwood, Ann Wright, Debra Sweet, Dave Lindorff, David Swanson, Jodie Evans, Medea Benjamin, Kevin Zeese, Tina Richards, and others will march from Arlington National Cemetery to the office of Congressman John Conyers. They will sit in Conyers' office reciting the U.S. Constitution until they are either arrested or he agrees to start impeachment. See http://www.afterdowningstreet.org/sit for time and location. Similiar actions will take place in the offices of Rep. Howard Berman in California, Rep. Pete Visclosky in Indiana, and Rep. John Conyers' district offices in Detroit. If you are willing to go to jail for justice your are encouraged to come to Washington to participate in the civil disobedience, or to stage a sit-in at your congress member's district office: http://www.democrats.com/sit. If you cannot join them, please wear orange in solidarity and please phone Congressman Conyers' office that day asking him to move forward on impeachment: (202) 225-5126. |
