From MI Impeach — So last night we held a Town Hall on impeachment in downtown Detroit, and it was an amazing success! Not only did John Conyers show up, but the Detroit Free Press is reporting today that Conyers endorses the movement “nationwide.” You can read the whole article here. It is a good article, even though they grossly underestimated the attendance of the rally. We originally set the room for 200 people, and had to bring in about 200 more chairs, and then it was standing room only.
This is the first step in this process folks! We must keep up pressure on our elected representatives and let them know that this is something the American people want, no matter what political affiliation they have. That was demonstrated last week in an online MSNBC poll which showed that 88% of the respondents want impeachment! Check out the poll here.
A special thanks to everyone who helped out last night. The list is too long to put here, and to be honest, I know I would forget people.
FYI, stay tuned to our blog for a link that will soon have pictures, and video from the event.
Send Conyers and your Michigan Reps Do-It-Yourself Impeachments!

A Patriot’s Message
The hammer falls on the Constitution of the United States of America. Our freedom and Democracy, our sovereignty as a nation is coming to an end.
The politically appointed neoconservatives in Justice sneer at Habeas Corpus; Geneva Convention; worker, consumer and investor protection; education; affirmative action; individual rights and “entitlements†like Social Security and health care.
The corporate neo-con conspirators (Establishment) have their own agenda of a New World Order; W.T.O; N.A.F.T.A; immigration; globalization and “free tradeâ€; military seizure of foreign oil fields; employing a private army of mercenaries and propagandist; “dealing†with Afghanistan Opium drug lords harboring Osama Bin Laden and financing Al Qaeda.
The ideal corporate model is “Communism†where individual freedom and democracy are mute. The board of directors rule. The corporate neo-cons hate our regulatory government, Constitution and Individual Rights.
Our Federal Government is purposely bankrupt by war/trade debt and the ideal corporate nation, China, are carrying trillions of dollars of our debt. Communist China and their junior corporate American partner’s technically own theâ€U.SA†resulting in “Globalization†and loss of sovereignty. Mission accomplished. The surge strategy is not to win the war but to pump oil and further indebt U.S.A to Communist China. Patriots, sign on! Impeach Bush, Cheney and nullify their Supreme Court appointments!
The news report was from “FAUX”. Did you expect “fair and balanced”?
P.S. Some might not even consider Detroit to be a “big city”.
WRONG AS USUAL.
My Fox Detroit reporter: The Detroit City Council is not the first organization from a big city to vote on impeaching the President.
Detroit isn’t even one of the first to mrerly consider impeachment. Many unions, political parties, other organizations (big and small), cities (small, large and huge) and states have already approved impeachment resolution. This more Fox News misinformation. Everybody knows Americans want the U.S. out of Iraq and George Bush and his cronies held accountable for all the spying, the lying and the dying. To image that Detriot is the first place impeachment, not to mention imprisonment, is a polite fiction “as among friends” at best. It is really just more of the Big Bush Lie.
And don’t forget all the Out of Iraq, No War on Iran and Censure Bush, Censure Cheney resolutions, debates, discussion and plain old street corner discussion.
