Impeachment really is popular

I just did some googling and found this well-documented blog entry on polling data related to impeachment. Check it out: the vast majority of democrats strongly support pro-impeachment candidates and a sizeable number (almost half) of independents feel the same way. Spread the word!

Haditha

After the NYtimes broke the story on Friday, more and more stories have come out about the massacre in Haditha last november. I’ve seen editorials on Haditha and plenty of stories from all corners. It’s being compared to My Lai.

One of the two fields claims my cell. I go back to both fields… no luck. The [...]

Make it go faster!

I’m a bit irked that there’s not more traffic on the grim listserv. I was expecting a bit of bustle after I joined, but it looks like internet time isn’t quite valid when it comes to the grassroots effort to impeach the president. I’m wondering how I can light a fire under people. Lord knows [...]

Maybe not so useless…
