Nancy Calls for Impeachment

Yes !!! The winning entry from the Democrats.com "Dump Dick" video contest.

How do we persuade Speaker Nancy Pelosi to respond to Jen's excellent video? Share your ideas HERE.

Meanwhile,

Urge your Representatives to Sign the Pledge for Peace Petition

Dear Representative,

Please join the 70 members of Congress who pledged in an open letter delivered to President Bush: "We will only support appropriating funds for U.S. military operations in Iraq during Fiscal Year 2008 and beyond for the protection and safe redeployment of all our troops out of Iraq before you leave office."

The U.S. occupation of Iraq is the primary cause of the violence there. U.S. intelligence agencies have reported in multiple National Intelligence Estimates that the occupation of Iraq is recruiting more terrorists worldwide. Every dollar we spend in Iraq is making America less secure and taking funds away from urgent needs at home and abroad.

Your pledge to vote only for funding bills that end the occupation by January 2009 has the potential to send to the White House a bill that finally accomplishes what the current Congress was elected to do.

Your concomitant pledge to vote against any funding bills that do not end the occupation has the potential to force the president to use existing funds to bring the troops home.

There is nothing rash about commiting to ending this disaster in 17 months. Please contact the Progressive Caucus to join the 70-plus Congress Members taking this pledge.
