Anti-War, Impeach Bush Movement at Full Momentum
Anti-War/Impeach Bush
Now the Majority Sentiment in America
Unfolding developments over the past several weeks have made it clear that the September 24 demonstrations in Washington DC, San Francisco and Los Angeles will be the largest outpouring of Anti-War/Impeach Bush sentiment since the illegal invasion of Iraq in March 2003. The Anti-War/Impeach Bush movement has gained full momentum, and a successful mass mobilization on Sept. 24 can be the key element in transforming that momentum into a powerful political force.
The Impeach Bush and Anti-War sentiment in the United States has now become the majority sentiment. Polls now show that Bush's approval rating regarding Iraq has fallen to under 40 percent. The American people know that they have been lied to and they no longer believe in the propaganda that is pumped out of the White House. The reach of the Anti-War/Impeach Bush movement has become broad and deep and includes segments of the population that had never before participated in protest activities.
Huge numbers will come from every major city on the East Coast, Midwest and South - New York City, Philadelphia, Baltimore, Boston, Detroit, Chicago, Cleveland, Atlanta, Birmingham, Charlotte and elsewhere - and from many smaller cities. Gulfport, Mississippi; Eau Claire, Wisconsin; and Des Moines, Iowa are just a few of the cities organizing for this demonstration. Buses will be coming from as far as Albuquerque, New Mexico - a 28 hour drive to DC.
The September 24 Impeach Bush and Anti-War demonstration will be making a direct and vivid connection between Bush's illegal war in Iraq and its inability and refusal to meet human needs as evidenced by the government's incompetent and criminal handling of the crisis in New Orleans after Hurricane Katrina. It is ironic and pitiful that the Bush White House can find limitless resources to wage war in Iraq - currently about $200 million a day or 1.4 billion each week - and plan the destruction of a whole city (Fallujah) in meticulous detail, but when confronted with the need to save a city the same government showed apathy, lethargy and criminal neglect, especially when it came to working class and African American communities. Moreover, in their pursuit of "endless war" the Bush Administration in 2003 and 2004 diverted large amounts of funding slated for Louisiana hurricane and flood rescue and response efforts to the Iraq war.
The Bush Administration is also facing Indictments which have been reported to be handed down within the coming weeks. Speculation that Bush, facing charges far worse than Nixon did in WaterGate, could resign. The majority of America has had enough of the lies and corruption of the Bush Administration and a Blank Check Congress and September 24th will be the beginning to the end of the nightmare America has suffered from since 2000 according to demonstration organizers, speakers, historians and participants. America marches on Washington September 24th.
The cost of this illegal war in Iraq has bankrupted our great nation, along with the free-spending so-called "conservatives" in the majority on capital hill. While they give the tax breaks to the richest americans, the middle class is expected to finance the so-called move to democracy in Iraq to the tune of $25,000 per Iraqi, while FEMA passes out a paultry $2000 to the victims of Katrina who have lost everything.
Now the Republicans want to revisit the Medicaid, Energy, and Highway bills to help pay for reconstuction efforts in the Gulf coast region?
I smell a big Halliburton contract in the near future!
It's time to wake up America and let your congressman know how you feel.
See you all on the 24th in Washington DC. (Comment this)
