That which you do not resist and mobilize to stop, you will learn - or be forced - to accept

Dear World Can't Wait Supporter,

I saw this in the NY Times Magazine last Sunday, and am sending it to people who think the Democratic Party is going to end the war.

" The Undeparted" by Noah Feldman 4-8-07

http://www.nytimes.com/2007/04/08/magazine/08wwlnlede.t.html?ei=5070&en=4d290c6fca46be5b&ex=1176782400&pagewanted=print

"On the surface, recent votes in Congress appear to signal a new Democratic determination to withdraw from Iraq. But the reality is otherwise. It is not only that the resolutions were drafted and adopted with the certain knowledge that they would be vetoed. More important, even if a future Democratic president did try to implement the new plans, the results would likely end up looking oddly similar to the Bush administration’s current strategy. In politics as in war, things are seldom what they seem…"

It makes me think of our Call: "That which you do not resist and mobilize to stop you will learn – or be forced – to accept."

Demand IMPEACH NOW!

Everywhere Saturday April 28

I sent a video Friday. Maybe you missed it. If you loved Nina Simone, if you hate the war, if you feel the pain of the Iraqi people, if you want to stop all this through the power of the people…you gotta take 3 minutes and watch this and then send this to others!

If you’re anywhere in NE Ohio on April 28, get to Cleveland. The "Impeach the Liars" crew will be spelling it out with large letters at Lincoln Park.. Then to Pat's in the Flats, which is hosting an Impeachment Party at 7:00 PM. Rep. Dennis Kucinich is also hoping to join in the festivities!

Find more events and plan your own at A28.org. This effort should take off and help change the terms across the country. Be part of it!

Sincerely,
Debra Sweet
Director, The World Can’t Wait – Drive Out the Bush Regime
