Start: Aug 27 2007 - 5:30pm
End: Aug 27 2007 - 7:30pm

Sign-making Pot Luck!

Come and make signs Monday evening for the Bush demo
on Tuesday morning. Even if you can't make it to the
demo, get your feelings on posterboard and we'll take
them with us.

Bring a dish to share and think of a few words you
want to put on a poster to share your feelings on the
state of the union.

George Bush will be in Reno Tuesday morning. Join
AAIE, Molly Ivins Pots and Pans Brigade, A28, other
organizations and Washoe County residents in a
demonstration against the worst president in US
history!

We are protesting Bush's policies in Iraq. We hope all

PRO-WAR COUNTER RALLY! LABOR DAY, MONDAY SEPTEMBER
3RD, 8:15 AM
	
ALERT: PRO-IRAQ WAR GROUP TO RALLY IN CARSON CITY ON
SEPTEMBER 3RD AT 9 AM

Republican group to rally outside of Nevada Senator
Harry Reid’s office

The Republican Party and an extreme Neo Con group
called “Move America Forward,” are planning to rally
to encourage the United States to stay involved in
Iraq’s civil war.

Move America Forward is led by neo-conservative radio
host Melanie Morgan who once told the San Francisco
Chronicle that the editor of the New York Times should
be tried for treason and “sent to the gas chamber,”
for reporting violations of civil liberties by the
Bush Administration, (San Francisco Chronicle, “New
chapter in battle of words over tracking terrorist
financing” 6/29/06) 

They are up to their same old tricks again. Move
America Forward and the Republican Party are calling
themselves pro-troop, but are ignoring reality.
Therefore, local veterans are going to lead the
response of those who have common sense and know that
we must end our involvement in Iraq’s civil war.

We will not allow them to put pressure on our elected
officials to leave our troops in another countries’
civil war, nor will we allow them to spread their
extremist message.

WE WILL COUNTER RALLY FOR COMMON SENSE & THE TRUTH!!!

Who: Nevada Democratic Veterans & Military Families,
All Concerned Americans 

What: Counter rally against PRO-FIASCO advocates

Where: Nevada Senator Harry Reid’s Carson City Office
600 East William St. Carson City, NV 8970

When: Labor Day, Monday September 3rd, 8:15 AM

Please RSVP to info at nvdemocraticvets.com 

ALERT! OUT-OF-STATE, PRO-WAR GROUP COMING TO CARSON!

Move America Forward*, a pro-war, California-based
Republican front group, opposes a change of course in
Iraq and has organized to push back on Americans’
resolve to end the war. 

The group will rally outside of Sen. Reid’s office on
Sept. 3. They do not want Sen. Reid to lead the fight
in Congress to bring a responsible end to the war.

Let’s organize more people than they do to tell this
out-of-state group that Nevadans support a change of
course in Iraq: “Support Our Troops – Change the
Course”

WHAT: Rally for the troops and for a change in Iraq,
led by Nevada veterans

WHERE: Sen. Reid’s office, 600 E William St # 202,
Carson City

WHEN: 8:15 – 9:45 a.m., Monday, Sept. 3

WHAT TO BRING: American flags – small, medium and
large. We hope everyone participating is holding a
flag. For more information, go to www.nvdems.com. To
RSVP, email info at nvdemocraticvets.com

DO-IT-YOURSELF IMPEACHMENT

Last year, Impeach for Peace researched a way to
impeach the President or Vice President using
"Jefferson’s Manual", a rarely used part of the Rules
of the House of Representatives. With the
Constitution, the Rules are ratified and updated by
every new congress. In Jefferson's Manual, the section
covering impeachment actually empowers individual
citizens themselves to bring impeachment motions to
the floor of the House!

Print it out, fill in your relevant information
(notary is optional) and send to:

Impeach for Peace
1111 Elway St. #505
St. Paul, MN 55116

We're sending copies to Rep. Dennis Kucinich, who
recently spoke in favor of impeachment. He’s agreed to
enter our names into the congressional record and has
already entered several thousand! Extra credit for
sending a DIY Impeachment to your own representative
as well as the 13 members of the House Subcommittee on
the Constitution, Civil Rights, and Civil Liberties,
http://judiciary.house.gov/committeestructure.aspx?committee=7
which is now holding Kucinich’s Articles of
Impeachment of Richard Cheney, H. Res. 333 (
http://thomas.loc.gov/cgi-bin/thomas , enter H. Res.
333 in the appropriate box, AFTER selecting "Bill
Number" there).

To strengthen the impact, Impeach for Peace hand
delivers the forms in waves, all on the same date, to
a House Rep. with cameras rolling. We've had over
500,000 download of the document representing over 1.7
million mailings. We hope to flood the congress with
sacks of mail and cause a newsworthy event to further
pressure them to act on the memorials. Although, it's
important to keep in mind that in the 1830 precedent,
impeachment resulted as a result of a single memorial.
Yours might be the one!

Yours in peace,
Impeach for Peace
