Hear is a letter that I just received from Dennis Kucinich.<\/p>\n

Dear Friends,<\/p>\n

Because of your vigilance and support for democracy, last Friday was a day of singular importance in Washington. The House Judiciary Committee met to discuss the Bush Administration’s abuse of executive power and for the first time the case for Impeachment was discussed in front of a Congressional committee, in depth, at length and with authority.<\/p>\n

Twenty members of the Judiciary Committee attended the six hour hearing, during which twelve witnesses, including myself and four members of Congress testified. In this hearing I called for the Impeachment of the President for misrepresenting a case for war.<\/p>\n

This week I will present members of Congress with Impeachment petitions submitted by those of you who have signed the on-line impeachment form.<\/p>\n

I need your help. In the next few days we must redouble our efforts to get more signatures on the online petition at kucinich.us<\/a>. I’m asking each of you to please contact at least ten of your friends to go to www.Kucinich.us<\/a> now and sign the Impeachment petition that will be delivered by me. Wednesday night is the deadline.<\/p>\n

Please send out an email to all your friends and family, post this link, http:\/\/kucinich.us<\/a> to your blogs and make this effort count as this is the only petition that I will deliver.<\/p>\n

\"Sign<\/a>Thank you so very much.<\/p>\n
