MoveOn's Petition to: Stop Executive Overreach
MoveOn has distributed this Petition to tell Congress
to demand answers by Subpoena from the Bush administration
about the Iraq war and their illegal spying program, and not back down,
to hold Vice President Cheney in contempt of Congress
and send over the police if necessary,
And if that doesn't work, Impeach the guy.
Well done MoveOn, count me in and tell me what I can do get more Americans to sign this petition.
I hope all MoveOn members will sign this petition now! And have a Great Fourth Of July.
Dear MoveOn member,
You've probably seen the news this morning: President Bush let Cheney aide Scooter Libby, the one man who was convicted for the lies around the Iraq war, go free. Paris Hilton served more jail time than he will.
Bush and Cheney think their administration is above the law. That's un-American, and this July 4th it's time for Congress to re-assert its constitutional authority and
top the administration's obstruction of justice.
Congress can start until they get them. Cheney won't testify? Subpoena him. He won't come? Hold him in contempt of Congress and send over the police.
And if that doesn't work, impeach the guy.
We just can't let President Bush and his administration dismantle our Constitution.
This July 4th, it's time to bring checks and balances back again. Click here to sign the petition and send a message to Congress to act now (the text of the petition is in the box to the right):
Link
Then please send this message to your friends, family, and others who would be interested. This issue has everyone outraged--only 32 percent of Republicans agree with the president's decision.
This isn't just about the Bush administration, of course. Law is determined through precedent. If Congress doesn't rein the Bush administration in, it'll change the rules for every administration that comes after.
And letting Libby off the hook is only the most recent example of a consistent Bush administration pattern of obstruction of justice.
When their illegal program of warrantless wiretapping was revealed, the Bush administration refused to answer subpoenas from Congress to testify about what, precisely, they were doing. When Attorney General Alberto Gonzales--the nation's highest law-enforcement officer--testified in front of Congress under oath, he lied and said the program didn't exist.2
And in retrospect, it's clear what Bush meant when he said this about the Plame case back in 2003: "[I]f there is a leak out of my administration, I want to know who it is. And if the person has violated law, the person will be taken care of."3 Last night, Bush certainly took care of Scooter Libby.
On Sunday, Senate Judiciary Committee Chairman Pat Leahy said he would hold Cheney and others in the administration in contempt of Congress if they refused to directly answer questions. Members of Congress are asserting their authority and standing up.
But they need to know the American people are behind them. Can you take a moment to click this link and send that message right now?
Link
As they say in civics class, America is a country of laws, not of men. It's time for Congress to stand up and use them.
Let's celebrate Independence Day by reaffirming the basic, founding idea of our government: No one, not even the president of the United States , is above the law.
Thanks for all you do.
-Eli, Matt, Karin, Wes, and the MoveOn.org Political Action Team

Something for patriots to do in Denver on July Fourth
All of you who are outraged at the un-Constitutional actions of Libby, Cheney, and Bush should show up at Colorado's longest running Impeachment Rally on July 4th at 5 pm at Colfax & Broadway in Denver.
This event is part of a Colorado Impeachment effort that has been quietly taking place twice a week since Jan 23rd. We have held at least two impeachment events each week in Denver. Join us. Link
We will have signs. You may bring you own. Just show up to show your love of Country. Now is the time to come to the defense of your Constitution and Laws. Cheney, Libby and Bush's Neocons will literally get away with murdering 3,500 US soldiers over Cheney's WMD lies. Don't let them get away with it. Show your outrage. Show up.
Perhaps we may yet prove to Denver's Corporate Media that the Voters Last Resort "Impeachment" is not off the table. Cheney is very vulnerable to Impeachment.
Call 800-828-0498 and tell all of Colorado's Congressmen to become a Co-Sponsor on US Rep Kucinich's Impeach Cheney Bill H Res 333.and if you can find the time, Call All Of the Country's Congessmen to do the Same.
This last week Kucinich's Impeach Bill picked up more Co-Sponsors... It Will Happen.
The Democrats will not be able to ignore Impeachment because of the revelations of un-Constitutional actions by Cheney will come out. They will look like fools if they don't Impeach, and lose in November 2008.
Please Vote to Impeach in the National Cheney Impeachment Poll at
