Impeachment Back
Cheerleading, Dancing, Sit-in on Independence Ave
More on sit-in.
Here's the full story on the sit-in. When I arrived with the tail end of the march, people were sitting on the street, drumming and chanting: "Sit down! Surround the capital!" There were clearly not enough people to accomplish that second task, but I'd estimate at least two hundred sitting on the asphalt at the peak.
Occasionally a helicopter would fly overhead, and everyone would cheer and wave two fingers in the air.
At one point someone got the idea to form a human peace sign with all of our suddenly cooperative bodies, and we got up, formed a circle and some central lines, and sat down, began singing "All we are saying is give peace a chance. . ."
Then the drumming started up in full force, and everyone got up and danced ecstatically. Just as the energy was reaching a crescendo the police arrived, sirens wailing, started ushering people to the sidewalks to clear the street. There was huge disappointment. But not enough were prepared to stand their ground, and even among some calls of "Whose streets? Our streets" only a dozen or so stayed. No arrests were made, but it was clear the cops felt threatened, for this is what they sent for a human peace sign and some dancing in the streets:
yeah! we rock!
we decided immediate action was needed to create a stir on saturday. we sat down. convinced others to do the same.
eventually we got all the people you see here, and the cops actually ran over a guy, not just his foot, like previously reported. they tried to arrest him, but didn't. finally the cops left and everyone celebrated by going to the last taking of capitol hill where we played an improvised drum, made out of an orange and white construction barrell and picket sign sticks.
gotta make some noise.

I bet if John KKKerry had gone into Iraq just as Bush you would be fucking beside yourself with joy, but when the republikan does it you attack them, and that is fucking complete and total bullshit war started by any party, it doesn't fucking matter, is straight wrong and if you don't stand against it then you are just standing for it.

Any efforts put forth by our country will be sabotaged by the presents of this Administration.
George Bush has too much baggage to lead this country into any kind of healing
and there is no one in the world that wants to deal with him. It is much worse than a lame duck president. It is our country that is lame as long as he occupies our white house
Most of our government is broken, but it does have in its design a system to address the circumstances we are faced with today. That part of our governments design will also be broken if it is circumvented and not used.
Nancy Pelosi our young people and the rest of the world need to know that we can have a government with integrity. Your country needs you! The children of this great nation need you!
Allow our government’s safeguard system to work as it was designed, with the proper order of ascension to function.
Believe in our system enough to allow it to work. Participate in it. Don’t manipulate it.
Take strength from your faith to know, others that love this county will close ranks to be supportive of your mission and share in the work to be done
Only when our government is functional at the worst of times, do we discover that Our Flag is still there.
Act decisively. Do not sweep what has happened the last 6 years under the rug like it never happened. There is wisdom and understanding to be gained for the present and for posterity.
As a country we must go into the pain of this process to re-affirm, what it is - that we stand for as a nation.
Let our voices be heard where it counts. Affirm that this is a democracy of the people and for the people.
