"Our soldiers are sitting ducks in a shooting gallery.
If we really cared about them, we would bring them home."

— Dennis Kucinich
mp3 of floor speech

Is anyone really going to disagree with that? I think it rings true, if we really cared about our young men and women, then we would bring them home.

Bring the Troops Home: Impeach



Our young men and women were sent to Iraq on lies, yet now we must stay.... just another lie- yet it’s accepted as truth because the Democratic Leadership agrees with Bush. The new House Dem Leader supports the Repub plan to send more troops, & cutting the funding (how Vietnam ended) is not an option.

Hmmm, why don’t the "Opposition Leaders" oppose the war?

It has never been more clear that the majority of Both Parties do not care about what the American people wish. They do not care about our troops, or about the Iraqis.

Hmmm- which makes more sense- all that oil and power stuff, or the guys that lied to start the war telling us we must stay.

Another great quote from Kucinich:

Today, it was announced that 2,000 more Marines are being sent to Anbar province-a place which was already declared “lost” for the purposes of military occupation. Why are we sacrificing our young men and women? Why are we keeping them in an impossible situation?

Indeed, WHY are we sacrificing our young men and women?

Bush’s claim that, "A failed Iraq would make America less secure" is completely absurd bull, especially coming from someone that might go to trial once the war is over.

And the- we’re not leaving as long as he’s president - seems to be a challenge- directly telling us:

The only way to Bring the Troops Home is to Impeach Bush.

First we hold Congress’ feet to the fire. 50,000 telegrams to Congress forced them to hold impeachment hearings on Nixon....

We can try that avenue, and if they don’t act, then we’ll have to start camping on the national mall. Beginning Jan 3rd, ending when the nightmare is over.

  • Now that the Democrats won, it is time to Impeach for such actions as the gov’t rountinely violating our Constitutional rights.
    They violate the 1st Amendment by caging demonstrators and banning books like "America Deceived" from Amazon. America Deceived (book)
    They violate the 2nd Amendment by confiscating guns during Katrina.
    They violate the 4th Amendment by conducting warrant-less wiretaps.
    They violate the 5th and 6th Amendment by suspending habeas corpus.
    They violate the 8th Amendment by torturing.
    They violate the entire Constitution by starting 2 illegal wars based on lies and on behalf of a foriegn gov’t.
    Fix up that, impeach the President and while you are at it, investigate 9/11 a bit more thoroughly.

  • To whomever feels that the troops want to stay and ‘finish the job’- It is time to explore the basic tenet of Christianity “Do unto others…”

    Thanksgiving FlyerHow would you feel if you found out all your sacrifice for the last several years was for profit and corporate greed? How would you feel if you found out you lost your leg, your best friend, your spirit…all for money? How would you feel if you were forced to kill another human being, and you found out it was for Halliburton? You see, the facts aren’t going to change, whether we face it now or later. It is never going to get easier on these brave men and women to find out the war is based on lies, that their trust has been abused.

    These brave soldiers signed up to protect our country, they put their lives on the line for US- how many more years will we let them rot in Iraq because people in denial can’t handle the truth? We owe the troops the truth, and to bring them home to safety. It is the least we can do!

    • Dear WarMongers,

      As you sit down to your elaborate meal, prepared for you by someone who isn’t your parent, spouse or other relative, please take a moment to remember the hell you dumped our soldiers into. These soldiers would rather be home with their families too.

      Then, right after you take your first delicious bite, I hope you choke on it because you don’t deserve to enjoy anything for all the innocent Iraqi and American blood you have spilled...

      To the rest of you, please say a prayer for the strength to impeach the lying bastards who sent our soldiers-our sons and daughters-into this endless war.

      Write and call your representatives. They have every intention of misusing your kids too-they don’t care if you don’ t want the draft. They didn’t care that we didn’t want this war; now did they?

    • If every consumer QUIT using oil tommorrow, or if Iraq’s oil somehow became UNUSABLE (say contaminated by radiation) you would see troops packing their bags for home in haste. It is not so much the oil ITSELF the U.S. needs right now but rather CONTROL of the oil and bases and a compliant regime in place to stop that bad, bad, Euro from being used for exchange and instead re-establishing the good ol greenback. THIS and other ECONOMIC reasons are at the heart of the Iran issue also. My family today will be thinking of the suffering of all of the other families that can’t be together because of these stupid OIL and TURF wars, and will continue to voice our support for ending this senseless spilling of the blood of hundreds and hundreds of thousands of citizens and the wounding of God knows how many more.

      Media:gyroscopic-aether (noun) : gyroscopic-aether refers to the science and the understanding of gyroscopic aether (field) principles that over ride gravity by the means of utilizing generated pulsed aether fields that nuetralize and over ride the gravitational effect. gyroscopic-aether will someday become the next step in mankind’s understanding of how to generate free clean energy and to travel throughout the universe without using or needing petrochemicals. —WillPWilson, Term created by WillPWilson to describe future energy technology., 1980 U.S. Psychotronics Association.
