How come we haven't heard a word about impeachment from
the Move On organization?

If they were for it everybody's mailbox would be stuffed with messages from them.

They claim 3 million members. That could be a lot of pressure on the democrats.

Anybody have a message from them?And if not, why not?

Do they take orders from Nancy and the DLC or are they
regular democrats?

Seriously, I'd like to know.

4. All the more reason to turn up the heat on impeachment
or else they could roll over and play dead like the Congr. Dems do for BushCo.

But I'd rather they didn't. I'd rather they launch an aggressive and clever email and phone campaign focused
on key members.

2. here
http://pol.moveon.org/subpoena/

Full petition text:
"Congress must force Vice President Cheney to respond to its subpoenas. If he continues to obstruct justice and disregard the rule of law, Congress has no choice but to begin impeachment proceedings against him."

5.  it talks about LIbby so is it an old message ? Where's the full page ad ?
This is more important than anything else they have done. If they said he should be impeached, they should be pushing it now that the opportunity has come up before the public.

Signed it anyway. And thanks for sending it.

6. Do you know if this petition was up and going before Nov. 6 ...
or in conjuction and/or concurrently with Nov 6?

In other words, is this a coordinated effort by MoveOn focused on the House Judiciary's current situation?
or was it up beforehand .. like there've been such petitions around on lefty pages for awhile now.

just curious if you know. I looked at the link to see if it gave any indication of being tied to current
Judiciary proceedings, and found no such references.

10. It's from when Dubya gave Libby a pass
And it's about Cheney's office ignoring subpoenas. Moveon conducts new actions practically every day. This could be one if enough members want it.
