If there was ever a time for impeachment, it is now.
A leader that intentionally lies us into war with over 2200 American deaths and counting, that has divided this nation along partisan lines for self-protection, that has spied on Americans and broken the laws and arrogantly admits to doing it, who has bankrupted our nation and our retirement accounts, who has mooned the world and destroyed our reputation with our allies, deserves no mercy. Impeachment would be the least that should be done.

1. Those wondering what it would be like when we live in a dictatorship
Need wonder no more. We are already there. I fear for my life for the things I post online, but my principles won't let me stop. I honestly fear I will be framed for being liberal. Never in my life did I think I would have to worry so much about what I said.

5. Me too
Read Knut Hamsun's "On Overgrown Paths"... autobiographical of the time he was imprisoned in a mental hospital for speaking his mind.



And here I am with no accessories to wear with a brown suit.

3. Chimpeachment!
This is what a Yahoo message board poster called it. I like that.

He is so vile, so criminal, that he really deserves a word all his own.

4. And for filibuster too! Lets flood the senators offices:

CALL ALL YOUR SENATORS LOCAL DISTRICT OFFICES NOW TO OPPOSE ALITO

We have gotten many emails from our participants, asking "what more can we do?" Some have reported senators arbitrarily turning off their answering machines at night, or long waits on hold. Are they trying to hide from the thousands and thousands of their constituents who are raising their voices to demand that they filibuster the evasive Alito? Even if you have already sent your personal message by email or made some phone calls, we have added a FABULOUS extra function to the main action page where you can instantly lookup all your senators local district offices phone and fax numbers with just one click.

http://www.nocrony.com

SPREAD THE WORD ABOUT FILIBUSTER FRIDAY

If the other side can have a so-called "Justice Sunday", we can have our own "Filibuster Friday", and that day is tomorrow. In just the last 24 hours we have seen a major shift in momentum. Today, Senator Leahy came out with a very strong statement that he recognizes the immense threat to our freedom and democracy in allowing a dangerous and unpopular president to install a fifth and controlling vote to hold that our Constitution actually intended to create an executive dictatorship. Tomorrow we need to show our support for those senators who are starting to stand up now by hitting every phone they've got right down to the district level with our phone calls and faxes. Get all your numbers with one easy click at

http://www.nocrony.com

Those you who like to call in to progressive radio programs, we have all their call in numbers too at the site above in the right column. Call them and ask them to talk up Filibuster Friday all day and night long! Let's start early and snowball the thing all day long. Ask them to give out the easy to say and remember URL above as much as possible. Senators have said they are "undecided" on a filibuster. But we the American people HAVE decided and all our senators have to do it get it.

Some senators who are too still too cowardly to demand a filibuster are saying they will make Alito an issue in the 2006 election. It'll be an issue alright, in their OWN primaries! Any officeholder who will not stand up for this one must never hold public office in any capacity ever again. And the difference is whether you will stand up YOURSELF right now and make those calls to their local district offices. Make calls to the toll-free numbers 888-355-3588, 888-818-6641 and 800-426-8073 if you can get through there too.

It is not enough to vote "No." They must vote "Hell, NO!" It's called a filibuster. Filibuster Friday.

Please take action NOW, so we can win all victories that are supposed to be ours, and forward this message to everyone else you know.

If you would like to get alerts like these, you can do so at http://www.usalone.com/in.htm

Or if you want to cease receiving our messages, just use the function at http://www.usalone.com/out.htm
