the American peoples’ voices were so strong and still are
-Nancy Pelosi
I think she is right. The American people's voices need to be heard by the leaders. And we should make sure the Speaker to the House hears them as well. We should put together a nice letter that showcases concrete specifics; poll numbers; and helps her hear the voices of the people who are crying out.
"...Do you hear the people sing? Singing the song of Angry men" - Les Miserables
and since I'm not a wordsmith, I thought I might throw some clay on the wheel and see what the community could help put together...
We should be sure to let Pelosi know that the Honorable Waxman has set up a website where people can sign up for impeachment.

But we need to do it in a non-confrontational method. (similar to that 'grown up' voice we use when talking to Republican staffers over the phone). I started crafting a letter but figured I could use some editorial help on it. so we'll start this work in progress and maybe come up with a nice juicy letter to send via fax, email, and hand written snail mail our leaders so that they may hear the "strong voices of the American Peoples"

Dear Madame Speaker,
I wish to commend you on your insight for saying "the American peoples' voices were so strong and still are". It is time to listen to those voices and act with the conviction of a leader who has heard those voices when it comes to some of the trials of our nation. It is time to fix a broken country.
I understand that you are deeply religious and thought it might help for you to see some passages from the good book to help illuminate your leadership path through the darkness.
Romans 13:5 states, "Therefore, it is necessary to submit to the authorities, not only because of possible punishment but also because of conscience." In this case, the authority is the United States Constitution, and its clauses for the Impeachment of the Executive.
Proverbs 29:2 says "When the righteous increase, the people rejoice, But when a wicked man rules, people groan." and there is wickedness abound for you have heard the people groaning and lamented the stone ears of the leaders who will not listen.
It is within your power to move the will of the people forward.
(I need the HR numbers of both impeachment resolutions floating around in committee)
"Lying lips are abomination to the Lord." (Proverbs 12:22)
Please remember these words in your nightly prayers, Madame Speaker. The Executive Branch has lied to America. Bring Impeachment back to the table. Let the voice of the strong American people be heard.
Sincerely
Constructive input would be great.
