Save the BE PATRIOTIC IMPEACH BUSH Billboard in RI!!!

[CarlSheeler4U]

I think we all can agree that Democracy is not a spectator sport.

As a Marine veteran and candidate for US Senate (D-RI), I have
struggled to keep two primary issues in the forefront of the easily
distracted public: (1) We're still in Iraq and people are
dying. Iran is the next real risk and could lead to the draft. (2)
People Died because the President Lied. True for Iraq. True for
Katrina. He should be impeached. I am assisting Congressman John
Conyers (D-MI) efforts and have challenged the RI General Assembly to
send a joint resolution to the US House Floor, which has to be
expeditiously heard per procedure.

Many conservative Democrats have too much vested in their incumbency
with few leading the call to the withdrawal of our troops or
aggressively challenging this administration's policies that has
placed privilege of the few over prosperity for the many.

There are so many good organizations. Sometimes they benefit from
synergies of joining forces with others with common goals or common
groups. As mine is a grassroots effort, I need activists and
advocates. I prefer this. I'm accountable and accessible to the
public and not K Street Lobbyists and their special interests who have
gutted our American Dream.

It would be an honor to work with you and your organization(s). I am
working to earn support and endorsements. I am pleased to be endorsed
by the Impeach Bush Coalition.

Ultimately, my most pressing call to action has been to erect and maintain
the first bill board in the US on I-95 that states Be Patriotic Impeach Bush
with our Constitution in the background. This has been a lightning rod
throughout the blogosphere. Like most things it needs to be an ember
that is stoked. A copy of the bill board and Daily Kos diary write up
are at: www.carlsheeler.com

and http://www.dailykos.com/story/2006/2/19/1730/42036 and

http://dailykos.com/storyonly/2006/2/9/3407/09827

I have called on people I know to reach out to just ten people asking
them to do the same outreach. I am determined to keep that beautiful
bill board of hope up until Bush is Impeached and our troops are united
with their families. I'm asking everyone for a small $17.76 or $20.06
contribution or, if you're able, each month until the elections.

Thank you for allowing me to share. Let me know your own thoughts, too.

1. keep it up Carl

Pony something up folks. This is in a real high visibility zone on the most highly traveled thoroughfare in a deeply blue and totally rebellious state that was founded by an anarchist .

I'd kick something in but am in a rather huge argument with my bank as I just was defrauded of buckets of cash from an unscrupulous on line vendor. Arghhhhhhhhh

Will take a while to straighten out. Till then I froze my accounts. .

Aside from freewayblogging this is the next best alternative with our mindless media being as complicit as it is.

2. I admire your plan and wish you very good luck.

[CarlSheeler4U]

16. Luck increases with help from others. You in?

3. Time to get out our checkbooks and credit cards!

Our hard earned dollars mean a lot to us -- which is why the dollars we give to the candidates who give us a voice speak so loudly to operatives in the mainstream political machine.

Want to see more candidates demand impeachment? Make out that check, charge that credit card, or get than money order from the bank. Every contribution, no matter how small, is another supporter.

It is not just the total raised, it is the number of people that total is raised from that has REAL power. Voters are the REAL power-brokers in America, not dollars!
