Progressive Politics

So where do we go from here.

 First and foremost stay in touch with the Congressional Progressive Caucus. http://cpc.lee.house.gov/ Many members are listening to you and supporting your issues, including ending the occupation of Iraq and proceeding with Impeachment.

Impeachment. Razzle me dazzle me. The same Congress that says Impeachment would distract from the "important" work of Congress, has found time to spend on steroid abuse in the big leagues. Let's see, we have baseball on one side and illegal wars of empire on the other. This looks like "Bread and Circuses" to me. Let your elected reps in Washington know which issues are important to you. Let them know over and over. Be polite but firm. If your rep is already doing the right thing, write and thank him or her. They all need to know we are paying attention, and we are not going away.

Impeachment. Members of Code Pink are fasting until .... puts Impeachment on the table. The least you can do is order a tee shirt from Perceval Press:

For those of you unfamiliar with Perceval Press, it is a small publishing house set up by Viggo Mortensen. Mortensen came to NH toward the end of the NH primary to speak on behalf of Dennis Kucinich. He had supported the campaign from afar, but was prompted to fly east when ABC decided to dump some of the candidates, including Kucinich, from the debate at St. Anselm's College. In case you harbor any delusions about the media, in a hearing in which I was co-plantiff with Kucinich(to force ABC to allow all the candidates to participate), Paul Westin of ABC said, "This is not a debate, it is a media event." To hear what Mortensen has to say about that check out these from YouTube:
