Progress Now Action

From the American Bar Association website:

To begin, the House of Representatives refers
the investigation to its Judiciary Committee,
which reviews the evidence and may conduct
hearings. It determines whether an official
impeachment inquiry is warranted and, if so,
asks the House for permission to proceed. An
official investigation follows, with the
Committee deciding whether to offer articles
of impeachment to the full House.

I would remind all who are naysayers-

"We shall overcome because the arc of the moral universe is long, but it bends toward justice"- Dr. King, 31 March 1968

While we Americans may think that "it ain't gonna happen" the other nations that occupy this world may have a very different view about Mr. Bush and his cohort on being the leaders of an aggressive war without provocation against another sovereign nation, of using kidnapping of citizens of other nations, of creating and using a justice system that is not a part of a nation's native justice system, of utilizing torture to extract confessions, of hiding citizens of other nations from the International Red Cross, creation and utilization of illegal interrogation camps, of use of banned weapons of war against civilian populations, and of having no accountability for actions by the command personnel of civilian, intelligence and military organizations.

I would point out-
"U.S. embassy officials whisked Rumsfeld away
yesterday from a breakfast meeting in Paris
organized by the Foreign Policy magazine
after human rights groups filed a criminal
complaint against the man who spearheaded
President George W. Bush's "war on terror"
for six years.

And this about another brutal dictator who lost power and had to go into hiding for their crimes but justice on an international scale was brought to bear-
On the night of October 16, 1998, London
police arrested Gen. Augusto Pinochet Ugarte.
They were acting on a Spanish warrant
charging the former dictator with human
rights crimes committed in Chile during his
seventeen-year rule.

And this-

Just after dawn Tuesday, Kaing Guek Eav,
better known as Duch, gathered his clothes
from the military prison cell he has lived in
for the last eight years and walked, silent
and expressionless, to a waiting car.

Duch is the only man facing charges for the
crimes committed by the Khmer Rouge, a
radical communist regime that oversaw the
deaths of some 1.7 million people – roughly
one quarter of the population – when it ruled
Cambodia in the late 1970s.

Experts say Duch could be a key witness in
the long-delayed efforts to bring justice to
the people of Cambodia, and in a Wednesday
statement from the court Duch said he "is
ready to reveal the crimes committed by the
Khmer Rouge."

The world will not tolerate injustice. Can Americans afford the attitude of do nothing?
