Putting word out to my fellow citizens of the 37th district of California, one of the Bluer of blue districts.
As we've seen, the case to impeach Bush is pretty rock solid - and as Digby rightly points out (http://digbysblog.blogspot.com/...), we must stand with our convictions, and upholding the Constitution is not something you compromise on.
Sadly, our representative in the House, Juanita Millender-McDonald, has made no statement on her website, or gotten any news coverage that indicate that she's said anything about Bush's warrantless spying on Americans or claim that he's entitled to break the law. (go to extended)
Could she come out swinging in January when she gets back from vacation? Or will she have an inside-the-Beltway attitude and do nothing?
Frankly, we shouldn't wait for her. We need to organize and let her know that we need her to support impeachment and to be active in making the case.
If you're in the 37th and interested in helping to organize the 37th district to push for an impeachment proceeding against George Bush, please let me know. (Peter Burgis - peterandpatti AT sbcglobal.net. Put Impeachment in subject line in your email.)
Juanita's going to hear from us, and if she's going to have us giving her support for doing the right thing, or pushing her, we'll give it to her.
