September 15:
100,000 march for impeachment, against the war

Iraq war veterans carry impeachment signs at Sept. 15

On Saturday, nearly 100,000 people from all walks of life, young and old, of all nationalities and creeds, marched together, united by a single purpose, determined to end the war. The impeachment movement was a huge part of this demonstration and the call for impeachment resounded from the White House to the Capitol. People took buses, trains, vans, and planes from all over the country to make it to Washington DC for the March, and it was reflected in the massive turnout.

The protest included one of the anti-war movement's largest collective acts of civil disobedience. Around 5,000 people laid down in mass as part of a dramatic die-in at the foot of the Capitol steps to symbolize all those lives that have been lost in this destructive war. Another two hundred were arrested when they tried to take an anti-war message to the Congress and were stopped by riot police.

As those that were in attendance on Saturday know: the message of impeachment was everywhere. There were impeachment banners, signs, t-shirts, buttons everywhere you looked.

In his speech at the rally at the White House, Ramsey Clark called for a three-month push for Congress to introduce Articles of Impeachment. He called on all impeachment supporters to rededicate themselves to the cause. Congressional representatives don't have the right to take impeachment off the table. The Constitution -- of, by and for the people -- puts impeachment on the table out of legal necessity. Now it is the time for the people to exercise that right.

Following Ramsey Clark's call, ImpeachBush.org is initiating the fall campaign to flood Congress with the demand for Impeachment. After Saturday's success, we do not want to wait or waste even a day. Impeachment supporters in every state are organizing to target their local representatives in their home towns and in Washington.
