Today's New York Times carries the full page ad calling for the impeachment of George W. Bush (Jan. 12, 2007). Congratulations to all members of ImpeachBush/VoteToImpeach.org who helped place this New York Times ad. This is the third full-page impeachment ad to run in the New York Times. With everyone's support, we have also placed ads in the San Francisco Chronicle, Boston Globe, USA Today, and other newspapers around the country.

The timing for the ad is excellent. Coming 36 hours after Bush brazenly announced an expansion of his criminal war and occupation in Iraq, the country is seething with anger. Because Bush remains in office, thus far escaping impeachment, thousands more Iraqis and U.S. soldiers will be killed and wounded in a war that should never have happened.

We want to seize the momentum and place the ad in various other newspapers. We will also be having a major impeachment contingent on March 17, the 4th anniversary of the war in Iraq, at the March on the Pentagon in Washington DC. We can place more ads and organize the nationwide grassroots campaign, including this contingent, with everyone's continued support and commitment to ImpeachBush.org. If you can help, click here. http://www.impeachbush.org/site/R?i=GwFRhA7v0o-cHVURRTRNOw..

The danger that Bush poses is extreme. His speech of Wednesday night, directly in opposition to the wishes of the American people, not only announced his plan to deepen the war in Iraq, but made clear his direct threat to attack Syria and Iran. Impeachment is imperative. Congress must act before more and more are killed and before Bush's war spreads into other countries. We cannot wait two more years.

Please take action today:

1. Forward this email to all of your lists and your friends and families. You can do so by clicking here.
http://www.impeachbush.org/site/R?i=S7du2w9Ih3fwV2Bs0WPzOw..

2. Be sure to sign the referendum for impeachment and get everyone you know to sign it too. We will be announcing the new calendar and plan of action shortly to everyone who has signed up.
http://www.impeachbush.org/site/R?i=Vgzh1Q9zHTiJ2g0iU43wGA..

3. Donate now, your help is urgently needed for the impeachment effort. Click here.
http://www.impeachbush.org/site/R?i=bL3CGxYYWNb7T_hD2xdpTw..


The coming months are critical for the impeachment movement. Not only do 70% of the people oppose Bush's expansion of the Iraq war, the so-called "surge," the majority believe that Bush should be impeached if he lied about the reasons for the Iraq war, or if he engaged in illegal wiretapping. He did both. This is a people's movement and everyone's help is needed. As ImpeachBush.org has stated, "The Constitution cannot defend itself. The people must act."

If every member and supporter of the impeachment movement made a donation, this ad could be placed in newspapers across the country. If you have contributed before, consider making another donation now. If you have never donated this is the time to take action. Please donate today by clicking here.
http://www.impeachbush.org/site/R?i=rs4dynKScHUVNnLXYRGFsA..

Your work and support has taken the Impeachment movement to a significant moment in U.S. politics. People throughout the United States are now openly and frequently discussing the possibility of impeachment and urging their Congressional representatives to take the right step. The letters to the editor and full page ads that you have worked to place have forced the mass media to acknowledge that impeachment is a real issue for this President. Check your email in the coming days for announcements of the next steps and actions, and be sure to get as many as you can to sign the referendum and get involved.

20. That was tremendously satisfying!
Thanks for the opportunity! I've had my Impeach Bush bumper sticker on my car for years--maybe people will finally begin to take notice!

23. Really, what does this do?
I signed the petition, and got on an email list asking for donations - to run ads - to get signatures for the petition - to get donations... I dunno, it seems like there might be a better use of that money.

24. First it's necessary to recind the Iraq War AUMF
which will firmly establish that the concept of pretext for war, in spite of the War Power's Resolution requirement for 'clear' 'circumstances' and 'situations' (in other words, Truthful circumstances and situations, not fantasies), is criminal AND unconstitutional.

35. I think that's partly why it's so unseemly for her to be pushing impeachment.
The force of the push has to come from around her.

It's the only ladylike thing to do.;-)

36. Good point! It would be a Pelosi-palooza of a presidency!
And I don't think she'd be handing out many pardons either. (Unlike doofus Ford. Heal the nation my butt!!!)

42. The idea of impeachment just keeps getting sweeter and sweeter.

It's beginning to sound like a delicious dessert, not only just deserts.

I can taste it!

40. everyone needs to call their state legislator
and encourage them to enter articles of impeachment from their state. If one state passes it and sends it to congress, I know my rep will support it in the House of Representatives. I'm already working on my state rep. Call yours!

43. Good Work.
But I have a couple criticisms...why is there just a reference to Iraqi deaths? Why does Ramsey Clark need to be on there? Should a 60's style message of "march on the pentagon" be on there (even if it is an important event, run a second ad closer to March time)? This doesn't persuade people on the fence...but for fundraising and recruitment it's pretty good. But this does risk turning off some people who might have given money or signed the petition otherwise.

Just sayin.
