My friend PoodleDoc, in comments on my last post, reminds me that it is important not to make Rep. John Conyers the lightning rod for all anger and frustration with BushCo and the Democrats' relative inaction. And he's right.
Ruth Coniff, regular contributor to The Progressive, has a column about it where she speaks to Nation writer John Nichols. It is worth reading.
However, I still believe that impeachment is the cure for the last 6 years and that it is imperative to keep the pressure on our representatives to move forward with real efforts to hold the despots accountable. Go here to send a message to Conyers and the Judiciary Committee and here to contact your representatives and strongly suggest they sign on to H.R. 333, the bill to impeach Dick Cheney. You might also want to contact your senators (and Harry Reid) and strongly suggest that they support Feingold's call for censure on multiple counts. Read John Nichol's article in my previous post to find out why censure may be significant.
Thanks.

I just called Baldwin's office, asking if she had signed on to HR333. They said, no, but she's considering it. The didn't know when she might make a decision. Hmmmmm. I feel disappointed.
