Major Impeachment Movement Breakout in Oregon, Three Congressional Candidates Form Impeach Team
Apr 4, 2008

Focus:Government
Action Request:Various
Location:United States
Inspired by the valiant primary challenge of Shirley Golub, against
the Speaker of the House herself, other candidates are rising up all
over the country to issue impeachment based congressional primary
challenges of their own.
 
In Oregon in particular, which has a relatively early primary on May
22, Mark Welyczko OR-01, Joe Walsh OR-03 and Nancy Moran OR-05, are
teaming together to run joint radio spots on Portland's Air America
affiliate. You can listen to the radio spot on this page.

The beautiful thing about these three districts is that they are
arranged around Portland like a pinwheel, and so each of these
candidates is sure of reaching the constituents of their own
district, plus demonstrating solidarity on the impeachment issue.
Won't you make a contribution from the page above to these brave
candidates today, to join with them in their solidarity?
 
With the forced retirement of Admiral Fallon, who famously said that
an attack on Iran would not happen on his watch, there is a real
threat the the White House could do something utterly insane if left
unconfronted by a cowardly and docile Congress just trying to tread
water through to the next election. But those in the Middle East know
how imminent and real the danger is. After Cheney visited the Saudis
last week, the next day they were warning their own people about how
to protect themselves from nuclear fallout, as from a nuclear first
strike on Iran.
 
And the only thing that will get Congress to even remotely pay
attention to we the people is to actually mount serious challenges to
their own seats in the primaries, which is what Shirley Golub is
doing in San Francisco, and what Mark Welyczko, Joe Walsh, and Nancy
Moran are now also doing in their own districts. On this same page
below are links to all their individual sites if you want to know
more about what they stand for on other issues.

But unless Congress acts on impeachment before the end of this term,
not only is there a threat of an even wider war, you can take it to
the bank that Bush will not only blanket pardon every one of his
cronies, he will also pardon himself. Those of you who might hold out
some hope of accountability after Jan 2009, remember we warned you
this was coming. Indeed, we believe starting an even bigger war is
their PLAN to elect another war president, on a wave of resurrected
war fever.
 
We have one and only one chance to save the Constitution, by forcing
Congress to stand up for itself, and for us, now. And only viable
primary challenges will do it. Otherwise the damage will be complete.
If Bush and Cheney are not guilty of the highest of high
Constitutional crimes then no president need ever fear being held to
account ever again. If we do not act now, whether there are 7 months
left or 7 minutes, then any future president will take that as a free
pass to do whatever the hell they want the last year or so of their
elected term.
 
And remember, if you can contribute $100 or more to this urgent
initiative, the Impeach Team will send you one of the new bright
orange "IMPEACH BOTH!!" caps, to proudly proclaim your membership on
the Impeach Team.
 
Paid for equally by The Committee to Elect Mark Welyczko, Joe Walsh
for Congress, and Nancy Moran for Congress
 
Please take action NOW, so we can win all victories that are supposed
to be ours, and forward this alert as widely as possible.
