Campaign Web Site is Up


I'm reminded of one of Steve Martin's early films ("The Jerk"). He's living on his own for the first time. One day he receives the new telephone book listing HIS name(BTW, One job I had was delivering new phone books. Hard work with heavy loads & lots of climbing in apt. houses and low pay. Sounded easier than it was). He runs screaming through his neighborhood: "The new telephone books are here! The new telephone books are here!" I feel a lot like that.

Thanks to the many who helped me out with this. Mike Mottau, my wonderful, patient, & understanding designer. Pretty darn good for one who never did a political website before & is a recent ITT grad. Thanks to those who provided initial feedback on the site as it was being developed (misspelling my name was a no-no). Thanks to John Corbett Studios for making me look good & to my friends who agreed to be part of the session. I appreciate ATC-Tech of Middletown and Flanders Consulting of Portsmouth who gave me technical advice. I wanted simple and color. Got both.

So, "THE WEB SITE IS UP! THE WEB SITE IS UP!

Pass it on Eileen

FYI. Now keep in mind I have Sheldon on tape from an interview saying he would not Impeach Bush.

Maybe that's why plunderdome was handled by the feds instead of the A/G at the time....

Seriously, this is significant bipartisan news. I hope you will share.

Conyers Releases Massive New Report on Bush-Cheney Crimes

The minority staff of the U.S. House of Representatives Judiciary Committee, under the leadership of Congressman John Conyers (D., Mich.) has produced over the past many months a staggering report, just released, which documents the hard evidence of crimes and abuses committed by President Bush and his administration (breaking 26 specific laws). This report, "The Constitution in Crisis," should provide the raw material for numerous news reports and point reporters toward fertile ground for additional investigations. Please take a look:

Planning an Impeachment Blog Action

Starting at noon ET on September 1, 2006, and lasting 24 hours, websites and blogs all across the internet are being asked to replace their front pages with the single word "Impeach" in simple white text on a black background. Here's an example:

http://impeachnet.net

Visitors to those sites and blogs will be able to click and link to the sites' usual front pages. But first they will see a word that, standing alone, is as powerful as any word right now: it is banned by our political and media leadership but more popular among citizens and activists than perhaps any other. It is both shocking and welcome. For 24 hours, web surfers and blog readers will see that word first when they visit their favorite sites. In this way, we hope to get the public talking about the one tool guaranteed by the Founders to restore our Constitutional Democracy. Please encourage your favorite websites to take part in this action. If you plan to take part, please let us know here:

FROM THE IMPEACHMENT FORUMS

"When Bush vetoed the embryonic stem-cell bill (the first veto of his presidency), he remarked that the implementation of this bill would have promoted the taking of innocent human life, something that "crosses a moral boundary that our decent society needs to respect." Regardless of the merits or pitfalls of the bill, I find it ironic (to understate) that this president invokes morality as the reason for his action--this president who has crossed so many moral boundaries himself . . . to devastating effect...."
