Explaining that his “loyalty to the truth” overrode his “loyalty to Bush,” former White House spokesman Scott McClellan published a new memoir this week, which details the ways in which the administration regularly lied to and deceived the American public. McClellan asserts that the White House had managed the debate leading up to the 2003 invasion of Iraq in a way that “almost guaranteed that the use of force would become the only feasible option.” In this “culture of deception,” the corporate media acted as “enablers” to the Bush administration’s war of aggression.<\/p>\n
McClellan undoubtedly wrote the book for the sake of his career, to distance himself from an increasingly detested president. But the fact is that the longstanding beliefs of the anti-war and impeachment movement have now been confirmed by a Bush insider. The president lied about going to war; it was not just a case of “bad intelligence,” but intentional deception. This is an impeachable crime.<\/p>\n
Our relentless efforts for impeachment have helped change the political climate. Everyone’s actions have made a difference. More than 1 million people have voted to impeach. This is a stunning example of grassroots democracy in action.<\/p>\n
The Judiciary Committee and its Chairman have failed to act in the face of overwhelming evidence of the most grievous high Crimes and Misdemeanors ever to imperil our nation and its place among nations. The time to act is now.<\/p>\n
We are asking you to take a moment on Tuesday, June 3rd, to call Rep. John Conyers, the Chair of the House Judiciary Committee, to act on the impeachment resolution in the hands of his committee. This is not a matter of electoral politics or partisan politics. It is a matter of right-and-wrong, whether the Constitution is still adhered to, or if it is just a piece of paper.<\/p>\n
Please call John Conyers Tuesday, June 3rd, at the numbers listed above. Let Mr. Conyers know, “You have a constitutional and legal obligation to act on impeachment. The Bush administration intentionally deceived the public to go to war, and the people of this country demand that they be held accountable.”<\/p>\n
This impeachment drive is part of a two-month intensive effort, announced by Ramsey Clark, to have the House Judiciary Committee commence impeachment hearings by July 4. This movement is making a difference.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
