Who's planning to go to DC for the march on September 15?
Here's the body of the e-mail I got today:
The spark of impeachment has been lit
Make an urgently needed donation today
The spark of impeachment has been lit. All over the country people are moving, organizing, protesting, passing resolutions, setting up web sites, wearing ImpeachBush.org t-shirts, sweatshirts, and caps, and placing bumper stickers on their cars.
September 15 March on Washington committees are being set up in communities around the country. The ImpeachBush.org movement is uniting again with the anti-war movement to demand Impeach Bush, End the War Now! Tens of thousands will descend on Washington DC at the very moment that the national and international media will be focusing on General Petraeus’ report to Congress, which is being issued on September 15.
Iraq war veterans and their families will make up a huge front contingent of the September 15 March on Washington. At the very moment that Congress will be debating the war in mid-September, the people will gather in an historic action demanding that Bush and Cheney be impeached for inciting a war of aggression, authorizing torture and conducting a massive spying program on the American people.
Please make a much needed donation to help bring the buses, print the posters and leaflets, take out newspaper ads, pay for the sound and stage and all the other expenses associated with this mass movement. We rely on volunteers who sacrifice their time and energy but we must have sufficient funds as well. Please donate today by clicking this link.
Cindy Sheehan’s Journey for Humanity has helped spread the message of impeachment far and wide. Cindy and 47 other people were arrested on July 23 in Washington DC when they demanded that Congress act immediately to impeach Bush and Cheney.
Cindy Sheehan will join Ramsey Clark and others as featured speakers at the September 15 March on Washington.
On July 23, as Cindy Sheehan, Rev. Lennox Yearwood and others were staging their dramatic protest at Congress, the city of nearby Takoma Park, Md. voted to support the impeachment of George Bush and Dick Cheney. Takoma Park joins a huge list of municipalities who are demanding that Congress uphold their Constitutional oath and act to impeach now.
This is a people's movement. It comes from below, from the grassroots. That is the hallmark of all great movements in history. It is always the people acting, with conviction and resolve, that changes the political equation. ImpeachBush.org is a movement that is nearing the million-person mark. 929,275 have signed up so far. It is a sign of what is possible.
Please make your plans now to be in Washington DC on Saturday September 15. Bring friends and family. If you have never marched before, now is the time. If you can’t come personally but want to help this action succeed you can help by making an urgently needed donation by clicking this link.
We are also helping Iraq war veterans come to the September 15 march where they will be forming the front contingent. Many veterans are facing extreme financial difficulties and we want to help subsidize their travel so they can attend on September 15. If you would like to help by contributing to help pay for travel costs, you can make an on-line contribution or send a check by clicking this link.
