Impeachment now is imperative. If, We the People fail to force accountability for these crimes this fall, President Bush will have a free ride with impunity through the Presidential election year of 2008, when the Constitutional duty to impeach will succumb to political pressure, to the end of his second term in January 2009.

The impeachment of Bush, Cheney and the other civil officers of the United States is not merely the best way to bring our troops home from Iraq and prevent new aggressions, it is the sure way and the only way. President Bush, who assaults nations in the name of democracy has proclaimed himself the one man “decider” for the fate of our country and its victims. For him, democracy is an election controlled by wealth every four years and dictatorship in between.

If we fail, the world will see that the American people are powerless to effectively oppose Bush policies that have angered and embittered billions of people, making enemies of most nations, or worse, that the American people support Bush policies. How else could such lawless and destructive policies be tolerated?

Join Iraq Veterans Against the War, Veterans for Peace, the ANSWER Coalition, Muslim American Society Freedom Foundation, and thousands of others in Washington DC on September 15 for a huge antiwar protest timed to coincide with the report by General Petraeus on the "Surge" in Iraq.

The Mobile Chapter of The Veterans for Peace, along with Citizens for Peace, and the Peace Is Possible Coalition will be hosting an IMPEACH BUSH AND CHENEY rally here in Mobile on September 15th. Our event is corresponding to the march on Washington on that same date.

We will have as our guest of honor, THE BILLY SUNDAY BAND, featuring their latest anti-war song. We plan to line the streets on both sides of the park, holding IMPEACH BUSH AND CHENEY signs, and also, anti-war signs. Our event is corresponding with national events being held on that same day, especially the big march on Washington.

We plan to line the streets on both sides of the park, facing all the passing traffic on Government Street and Airport Blvd, holding our anti-bush and anti-war signs. Be creative and make a colorful sign, or use one of ours, but please join us in what looks to be a major turning point for the war and bush.

Thousands of protesters will gather in the nation's capital from September 15th until the 21st for a massive anti-war/anti-occupation mobilization. The Petraeus Report is scheduled to be released at this time and Congress will be taking up the bill authorizing billions more to prolong this tragic war. This week of action will be launched with a huge march from the White House to the Congress on the 15th. For those of you whose hearts and souls will be in D.C. but bodies are stuck in the other Washington, please join together with others who share your outrage at this administration, the lack of accountability, and the inability of Congress to put the brakes on their violations of the Constitution and total disregard for human rights and the rule of law. Bring signs, attitude, friends, family, and a peaceful countenance. It's time to answer their surge with a surge of our own. We'll have impeachment packets available for distribution.
