On September 24th, The People Spoke!

Now Tell Congress: Impeach Bush Now!

 

We were hoping that 100,000 people would surround the White House on

September 24 for the big demonstration. But more than three times that

number came out in a march that was so big that it lasted over five

hours. The marchers went directly on Pennsylvania Avenue in front of

the White House with thousands upon thousands chanting Impeach Bush!

The turn-out from the impeachment campaign from all around the country

in Washington, D.C. was fantastic. Tens of thousands of people from

the impeachment movement also joined the anti-war demonstrations in

Los Angeles, San Francisco and elsewhere making the call to Impeach

Bush heard across the U.S.

 

When Ramsey Clark called for impeachment, it resonated as perhaps the

most popular chant of the day. The chorus of 300,000 people chanting,

" Impeach Bush, Impeach Bush " directly in front of the White House was

heard all over downtown Washington D.C. This was a peace demonstration

but it was also an Impeach Bush demonstration perhaps the largest

demonstration calling for impeachment in U.S. history. The strong

sentiment for impeachment was reported in much of the media coverage.

 

Everyone in the ImpeachBush.org movement thanks the hundreds of

volunteers who helped this happen. The big

ImpeachBush.org/VoteToImpeach.org Tent on the Ellipse was a gigantic

success. Thousands of people stopped by to pick up leaflets, placards,

signs and Impeachment petitions. The beautiful bright yellow

impeachment signs could be seen everywhere. Volunteers collected many

thousands of new names from people who wanted to join this grassroots

referendum.

 

With the names collected Saturday we are now over the 600,000 mark of

people who have called on Congress to take actions against Bush and

other high officials for their criminal conduct. The most important

thing now is to keep the pressure on Congress. Although more than

300,000 people personally participated in the September 24

demonstration they actually speak for the sentiment of many millions

of people who would have joined the demonstration if they could have

made it to Washington D.C.

 

On Monday we launched the " Tell Congress to Impeach Bush Now " mass

email campaign. We have created an on-line communications instrument

called " Tell Congress. " It is for the millions of people who may not

have be able to come to Washington D.C. but who support the goal of

the demonstration. It allows everyone to join the demonstration from

home and work by sending a message directly to their elected officials

that they, like the marchers in Washington on September 24, insist

that Bush should be impeached now! It is becoming so successful that

we are extending the campaign - so if you haven't voted DO IT NOW! Ask

you friends and family to participate if they also want to see Bush

impeached.

campaign where an easy to use mechanism will let you quickly send your

customized message directly to the politicians.

There is sample language provided which you can edit, and there is

also a " tell-a-friend " page which lets you easily send a message to

several friends urging them to participate.

 

The impeachment movement wants to thank every person who made a

donation to help the September 24 demonstration become such an

historic event. Because the price of bus tickets was kept low many

people were able to come to Washington D.C. Without the continued

contributions from people who believe in impeachment the signs and

leaflets and other publicity materials could not have been printed.

 

The September 24 mass demonstration is not really over. We can keep it

going with your help. The " Tell Congress " campaign can spread all over

the internet by impeachment members forwarding and circulating the

call to join the campaign so that their friends, family members,

co-workers and fellow students can also send a message directly to

their elected officials calling for impeachment. We are also preparing

to launch the next round of newspaper ads around the country and begin

doing radio spots. In the past we have placed full page ads in the New

York Times, Boston Globe, San Francisco Chronicle and in other newspapers.

 

We want to also start running 60 second and 30 second radio ads so

that people all over the country learn about the impeachment movement

and how they can join the the " Tell Congress " campaign.

 

This movement is growing because of the generosity and commitment from

people who recognize that the movement cannot do this work without

adequate funding. We ask you to continue to help by making a

contribution. To make a donation now,

Let's build on the momentum of September 24th!
