How To IMPEACH A Cheney: The End Run

WE ARE ON THE THRESHOLD OF A HISTORIC POLITICAL SHIFT.

Your emails of protest arriving on Capitol Hill are numbering in the
hundreds of thousands and we can push those numbers into the
millions, and here is how we're going to do it.

We must do an end run around the corporate media which is
monolithically conspiring to try to keep serious talk of impeachment
off the table. We heard another chucklehead beltway pundit on the
radio the other day, for the umpteenth cowardly time, argue that
Democrats would hurt their 2008 chances by standing up for the
Constitution. LIES and more lies on top of LIES! Therefore, what we
must do is reach out directly and PERSONALLY to our friends and
neighbors, to mobilize our communities to speak out in numbers like
never before.

IMPEACH CHENEY? CAPS: http://www.usalone.com/impeach_cheney_cap.php

To aid in this mass movement we have already produced 10,000 custom
embroidered "IMPEACH CHENEY?" caps, and we're shipping them as fast
as we can. We are told that the largest promotional cap run in
history was about 50,000, so we are well on our way to breaking that.
It's a way for you to engage people in a conversation on the issue,
and then to invite them to vote in the National Cheney Impeachment
Poll, which itself has more than 100,000 submissions.

Can you collect votes for the poll without a snappy new cap? Sure you
can. Just go to the page next page below, print out some vote
gathering sheets and get out there, like we've been doing all along.

But we have found, and people tell us, that the caps make it so easy,
people will literally take the initiative to talk to you to express
their opinion, which is exactly how we are going to win, by getting
EVERYONE to speak out. And more than that, you can demonstrate by
wearing one of these caps everywhere that the QUESTION they say is
off the table is in fact very much on the table in our lives and our
own activism.

What we must do is break outside of the circle of people who are
already confirmed activists and reach out to the majority of our
fellow citizens, who know there is something terribly wrong in the
Cheney White House, but still do not appreciate what they personally
can do about it. That is what the caps are designed to do, to
facilitate that initiative.

If someone wants to organize a mass demonstration, all they have to
do is coordinate with us and we will do an alert in support. But we
need to do more as activists than collect signatures of other
activists. As we are mobilizing for these other things, and in
particular to increase participation in these other things, be a
demonstration of ONE, and help to build the base that will feed all
these other things.

We are in high gear even as we speak with the second bulk run of cap
shipments. Huge sacks pre-sorted by zip code are going out to the
East Coast right now and we will we working our way west throughout
the coming week. So especially if you are an eastern seaboarder,
please get you cap request in ASAP so we can get you in the
logistical shipping stream.

And remember, if you cannot make a donation in support of the
enormous manufacturing, packing or shipping cost of this project, we
will send you one for no charge whatsoever, not even shipping, and
all you have to do is email us with your mailing address and request
it. But if you CAN make a donation by submitting the form above, also
remember that it is only your donations that are making it possible
to make these caps available to everyone who wants one and will wear
it.

We are estimating it will take 2 million voices to actually initiate
impeachment proceedings against the real White House kingpin, Dick
Cheney. If we can get 100,000 people in the streets wearing these
caps (and we have that many votes already in the National Cheney
Impeachment Poll itself), there is no force on earth that will keep
you from collecting 20 additional votes yourself for the poll. And we
will be there.

Also continue to spread the word about the cell phone voting option,
where all you need to do to vote Yes to impeach Cheney is to text the
word "IMPEACH" to the cell phone number 30644, what's called a short
code to send text messages. Especially if you like to call into
progressive radio shows, PLEASE push this particular option as hard
as you can.

Please take action NOW, so we can win all victories that are supposed
to be ours, and forward this message to everyone else you know.

If you would like to get alerts like these, you can do so at
