This weekend, one of the resolutions before the California Democratic Party will be a very strong impeachment resolution. It doesn't make any sense to go after Bush, if the real criminals leaders just step into the leadership position, so this resolution takes them all out. Call any California Democratic Executive Board Representatives you know and ask them to back this one. It is sponsored by the 69th AD and the Patrick Henry Democratic Club, groups that have a dozen major must-pass resolutions before the CDP this weekend. Tell any E-board reps you know, not to let a weaker resolution be substituted for this strong one.
RESOLUTION TO IMPEACH BUSH AND INVESTIGATE CHENEY, ET AL.
WHEREAS, the Downing Street Memos show in multiple documents that President George W. Bush, Vice President Richard Cheney and Secretary of Defense Donald Rumsfeld, Condoleezza Rice, and various others began planning and executing the illegal war against and occupation of Iraq months before seeking Congressional and UN approval; and
WHEREAS, in furtherance of this planning, intelligence was shaped to fit these plans, illegal bombing runs were made against Iraq and various other questionable, potentially illegal operations and actions were taken with the express intent to provoke Saddam Hussein to take military action and decline to cooperate with the UN and other international entities, including but not limited to the IAEA and UN weapons inspectors, false statements to the American people made by George W. Bush, Dick Cheney, Donald Rumsfeld, Condoleezza Rice, and others with the apparent intent to deceive Congress and the American public and to cause Congress and the American people to allow the Bush Adminstration to carry out its plan for an unnecessary war; and
WHEREAS, as a direct result of the above actions, without the approval of the UN or any significant international agreement, the U.S. and U.K. began a war of aggression against Iraq, killing thousands of American and Iraqi military forces, wounding tens of thousands more, and killing or wounding potentially hundreds of thousands of civilians, women, children and other innocents; and that the U.S. has invested hundreds of billions of dollars in this potentially illegal war, to the direct detriment of the national debt, all citizens of the U.S. and all government programs for which this money might otherwise have been appropriated, and to the benefit solely of the military contractors and supplier corporations who have been shown to be overcharging and otherwise cheating the people and the government of the U.S.;
THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED that the California Democratic Party urges Congress to immediately begin impeachment proceedings against President Bush.
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that the California Democratic Party asks that all fifty states and a federal grand jury immediately begin investigations into criminal actions by Vice President Cheney, Defense Secretary Rumsfeld, Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice, Paul Wolfowitz, Richard Perle, Douglas Feith, John Bolton and any and all other members and former members of the administration in connection with the above noted past and present actions against and in Iraq.
