This is beyond ridiculous. It's time for this mofo to be impeached. That's right...The War Criminal...your President. I don't care if he's evil or stupid, he just needs to go..then be brought to trial, but first thing's first.

You can read about sending Gonzalez & Card to John Ashcroft's hospital bed to circumvent the Constitution in a number of places. Try Crooks and Liars for the Daily Show clips or Democracy Now for more straightforward coverage.

And he is on record as refusing to answer any questions about this incident. He needs to be put on trial. There's only one way to do that - get the House of Representatives off their collective asses. That starts with the Judiciary Committee. Here is how you tell them:

Go to: http://judiciary.house.gov/contact.aspx, type in your contact info and let it rip. Be polite, but be honest. Give a little background info as to why you feel Bush must be impeached, but not a novel. Yes, it's an uphill battle...there's not a huge democratic majority, blah, blah, blah. But this is what you do when this crap goes on. Here is the note I sent:

As Chair of the Committee on the Judiciary I am writing you to express my concern over the recent news of the President's trashing of the Constitution. My particular focus is that of the warrentless surveillance program. This is just one of many impeachable offenses this President has committed and I implore you to begin impeachment proceedings immediately. Thank you.

You don't have to direct it directly to Conyers. In fact, after I sent mine, I realized I probably shouldn't have. But it's no big deal either way...just send them the message. Enough of Dems patting themselves on the back for having hearings - they don't do anything about the outcome anyway (see Gonzalez). We have to tell them what to do...contact the House Judiciary Committee NOW and tell them to start impeachment proceedings. Go! Now!
