IMPEACH: Spell it out and make it happen!

April 28 was an incredible day in San Francisco. Activists met in the morning at Ocean Beach for the Beach Impeach. We spelled out “IMPEACH NOW!” and then it transformed into “PEACE NOW!” CODEPINK made the "C" pink with a great turn out of pink-clad activists, boas, slips, and all! Then we marched, took the mexican bus, or caravanned over to Camp Pelosi outside Speaker Pelosi's house for a rally that included an inspiring talk by Ret. Col. Ann Wright, and singing and dancing in the street.

Check out the phenomenal aerial pics and get a glimpse of our pink “C” at http://www.beachimpeach.org/sfa28_photos.html

A HUGE thanks to all the organizers that made A28 such a moving and memorable occasion! CODEPINK Bay Area was also represented at the Petaluma Butter and Eggs Parade on A28. Aerial photos credit David B.

    Events like this were just the beginning. I urge you and your readers to take a few minutes and examine:

    http://www.usalone.com/cgi-bin/transparency.cgi?paper=1&qnum=pet45

    It's a list of the 25 most recent comments made by real Americans participating in an online poll/letter-writing campaign concerning the impeachment charges recently filed against Vice President Cheney, which are now being evaluated by the House Judiciary Committee. Comments can be sent to elected representatives and local newspapers at your option. The participation page is at:

    Since this campaign began, three members of Congress have signed on as co-sponsors, in part due to hearing from their constituents. Make your voice heard!
