Ever notice that once something is around for a while, say, in your living room or on your desk, eventually you don’t really “see” it any more? I was thinking that something like could happen with the “Impeach Bush” banner that is in the upper right hand corner of this page–especially for people who come here on a regular basis. Anyway, I wanted to take this opportunity to point out that, if you are one of those who agrees that we should be pushing for impeachment, it would be a good idea to click that banner on a regular basis. That way you can keep up to date on the latest discussion and action items regarding that issue. If you don’t have a banner like that on your blog, and you would like one, there are also instructions on how to get your own banner.
One of the most recent stories at the Impeach Bush Coalition blog is that the Green Party has issued a press release calling for the impeachment of both Bush and Cheney. And a bit further down, there is a post about January 8 being Guerrilla Action Day for the impeachment issue. (Hopefully you’ve noticed that diary highlighted under “action item diaries” at Howard-Empowered. I also recommend bookmarking this Action Alerts blog.
FYI, via Howie in Seattle http://howieinseattle.blogspot.com/ I found out about the ACLU’s impeachment ad in the New York Times.

I created eight “Impeach.” signs that I am distributing to interested parties at tonight’s DFA meetup.
I used The GIMP image editing program to make a huge font, printed it on 11×17 paper, glued them to a box and then cut them apart. They’ll survive for a while on a freeway overpass or the back of a road sign, although I need to make some bigger ones.
I encourage everyone to do something extraordinary on January 8th, this Sunday. We need to put “impeach’ on everyone’s lips, and shock them out of the daily routine. Let’s get it done.
Thanks, ubikkibu. If you get a chance–and that goes for anyone going to Meetup/Linkup tonight, could you let people know about http://www.howardempowered.org
I don’t make it to meetings due to my teaching schedule, but “mousepad” types like me would love to get reports from the “shoeleather” people who are involved in local action. So it would help if people knew about the site.
Thanks in advance.
I added the website to the info page I distribute with our evening agenda.
