Independence Day: Let Us Remember Who We Are

2008-07-09T02:39:59Z

goto: kucinich.us to sign the petition!

Some Democratic Leaders say Impeachment is off the table.
So, let us set a new table for our nation, upon which we place the Constitution and where we demand that all those who have taken an oath to defend it .. keep their promise and protect our nation from the threat within.

Please go to kucinich.us now and sign the petition, which calls for impeachment. This is the one petition that will make a difference because I will be delivering it personally to your member of congress. Please circulate word of this petition far and wide, to all your friends and family. This is the one opportunity that we have right now to actually change events in this country.

Two hundred and thirty-two years ago, our nation was conceived in liberty. We have once again reached a moment of truth, one that Lincoln recognized at Gettysburg as to whether "this nation or any nation so conceived or so dedicated can long endure".

Through the ashes of war, Lincoln prayed that "this nation, under God, shall have a new birth of freedom...and that government of the people, by the people, and for the people, shall not perish from the earth."

This Fourth of July, 2008, we face a different kind of war; one which is trying our souls.. a war based on lies. But with the power of truth and the power of the people we can achieve a new birth of freedom, standing up for what is good in America, insisting on the rule of law, demanding adherence to the Constitution, and supporting the impeachment of a President who lied to take us into a war against Iraq.

Be the answer to Lincoln's Prayer. Please pledge your support now to restoring the rule of law in America. As we once again celebrate our Independence, let us celebrate freedom from fear and pledge that this government of the people will survive in this land that we love.

Please go to kucinich.us now. This is your chance to make a difference; truly celebrate our Independence. Thank you.

2008-06-26T08:42:01Z

For decades, fishermen have been making a living from the waters off the west coast of the United States. But a dramatic drop in salmon stocks is now threatening their existence.

Authorities are so concerned by dwindling numbers that they've banned all commercial and sport salmon fishing in California and Oregon.

Bush Blames Torture Policy on U.S. Troops

GEORGE W. BUSH: Yes.

REPORTER: And yet there are those who would say, look, let's take Guantanamo Bay and Abu Ghraib and rendition and all those things, and to them that is the, you know, the complete opposite of freedom.

FOX News Falsely Claims Iranian Missiles Could Hit U.S.

2008-07-05T14:51:46Z

FOX News is beating the drums of war so loudly I can even hear them when I turn off my TV. Their latest warmongering comes courtesy of FOX anchor Gregg Jarrett, who wrongly suggested that a Iran's Shahab missile could hit military installations in the United States with a nuclear warhead.

Notice former UN ambassador (and current warmonger) John Bolton say "absolutely" before making it clear that only U.S. military installations near Iran could be threatened. As Think Progress points out, Iran's Shahab missile has a range of only 1,200 miles. And just in case FOX can't do the math, Tehran and Washington D.C. are 6,340 miles apart.

Shame on you FOX for pushing us into war with Iran! Wasn't it enough that you helped push for an unnecessary war with Iraq? And hasn't the massive death toll and $3 trillion price tag from our current war been enough for you?
