Kucinich Schedules Nationwide Call-in Monday to Address Cheney Impeachment Measure

Kucinich Schedules Nationwide Call-in Monday to Address Cheney Impeachment Measure
http://www.prnewswire.com/cgi-bin/stories.pl?ACCT=104&STORY=/www/story/11-04-2007/0004697142&EDATE=


WASHINGTON, Nov. 4 /PRNewswire-USNewswire/ -- Thousands of supporters,
political activists, and other interested citizens are expected to dial in
Monday (tomorrow) evening to a nationwide conference call to hear
Democratic Presidential candidate Dennis Kucinich explain why and how he
plans to force an up-or-down vote in the U.S. House of Representatives on
the impeachment resolution against Vice President Richard B. Cheney.
Last week, the Ohio Congressman announced that he will be offering a
"privileged resolution" on Tuesday, November 6, that will, within two days,
require House members to vote on what to do with the impeachment measure,
which currently has 22 sponsors. Dozens of supportive organizations have
advised the Kucinich campaign that they will be lobbying Congressional
representatives heavily over the next few days to support the Ohio
Congressman impeachment resolution (House Resolution 333).
The conference call is expected to begin at about 7:30 p.m. ET on
Monday. It will be open to anyone, including representatives of the news
media. Additional details will be posted on the campaign website,
http://www.dennis4president.com.

3. I hope everyone gets it how big this is! Call your Reps!
Tell them to vote NO on any motion to table the bill now known as H.Res 333.

10. I hope everyone will get behind DK on this.
If we want reps who stand up and fight for us, we have to stand behind them.

15. I called my
representatives and senators plus e.mailed and faxed all of them to support HR 333.
Thank God for Dennis Kucinich!
PROBLEM: Less than 50% of the people have even heard of Dennis. This is due in large part to the media and their pre-selection of candidates that we should vote for.
Please join Dennis at denniskucinichmeetup.com/338 to help get Dennis elected.:kick: Dennis!

16. Sadly
I reside in a blood red part of a blue state. My congressman is a Bush/Cheney lackey of the highest order. X( (the DIShonorable Devin Nunes - 21st Dist. of CA.)

Still, I wouldn't be able to live with myself if I didn't at least call and lodge my wishes with my reps office. While my rep's probably busy counting out his next contribution to the Tom Delay defense fund, he at least knows he doesn't speak for me in 99% of his actions.

18. I called my rep Dennis Cardoza
His local office and stated my opinion. The guy who answered the phone did not know about the resolution or it's number. I gave him that information so he'll have it for future calls.

22. RULE OF LAW
i reached Matsui's and Lundgren's LA. emailed also:
Please support Rep. Kucinich's personal privilege introduction of H. Res 333, to impeach VP Richard B Cheney. This is an oversight issue. The executive wing has gone too far in their gradual erosion of Constitutional provisions of control on numerous issues in this country. Signing statements, mercenarial military tactics, vetoing of the programs that concern middle-class Americans, infiltrating the judiciary--there are multiple ways this administration has over-stepped its bounds in the governing of the US.
I am concerned about increasing attempts to institute oligarchical, corporate control originating in the Vice President's office.

24. I had already notified my rep Mike Doyle of this event upcoming
Edited on Mon Nov-05-07 04:41 PM by FREEWILL56
in the house last week and had even given him a link to read up on it further. I did ask him to vote for impeachment and had even sent him a reminder with a side note about the attorney general nominee situation he needs to vote against. He is usually pretty good about doing the right thing, but in my opinion he needs to be more assertive like so many of our Democratic reps need to be.
