Subject: Impeach Bush Ad Campaign Launched

Dear VoteToImpeach member:

Thank you for joining the VoteToImpeach campaign.

There has been an overwhelming response to the announcement
of the grassroots campaign calling for the impeachment of
George W. Bush, Dick Cheney, Donald Rumsfeld and John
Ashcroft for high crimes and misdemeanors. So far more than
100,000 people have voted for impeachment online. Many more
are signing petitions calling for impeachment. This is an
effort of widespread grassroots democracy. We can see from
the recent months that the grassroots peace movement has
become a major factor in world politics. We, the people, are
making a difference.

The next step in the grassroots impeachment effort is to
launch a massive public education campaign through placement
of the people's call to impeach full-page ad in major media
outlets around the country. You can read the main text (no
graphics) of the VoteToImpeach ad by visiting http://www.
votetoimpeach.org/ad_text_only.htm .

Or you can download a pdf version of the ad, suitable for
printing, at http://www.votetoimpeach.org/pdf/impeach_web.
pdf . The pdf version is the best format for viewing the ad,
with both graphics and text, exactly as it will appear in
the newspaper.

The VoteToImpeach ad campaign needs your financial help now.
Your contribution will help place this full page ad in the
New York Times and other major media outlets. At this urgent
time we are seeking to have this ad appear in the next few
days.

The suggested contribution is $200. If you can donate
another amount, and all donations are needed, it will help
the impeachment movement grow quickly.

Please visit http://www.votetoimpeach.org/donate.htm to
make an on-line contribution by credit card through our
secure server.

If you prefer to write a check, please make it payable to
VoteToImpeach and mail it to VoteToImpeach c/o 1901
Pennsylvania Ave. NW, Suite 607, Washington, DC 20006
(donations to this campaign are not tax deductible).

The U.S. Constitution provides the means for preventing
George W. Bush from engaging in, and carrying out with
impunity, crimes against peace and humanity and war crimes
and deprivations of the civil rights of the people of the
United States and other nations.

Members of the House of Representatives and other elected
officials need to hear and feel the pressure of the people
demanding that they introduce Articles of Impeachment.
Please forward this e-mail to your friends and family
members and others who are outraged by the actions of the
Bush Administration. You can encourage your favorite
websites to add the VoteToImpeach.org button by adding a
simple line of html code that can be found at http://www.
VoteToImpeach.org/add_link.htm .

You can also view the draft Articles of Impeachment at our
web site, and print out paper copies (pdf format) of the
Impeachment petition. The petitions will be sent to the
ranking members of the House Judiciary Committee.

It is the peace and justice movement around the world that
is showing leadership and foresight in the world's events.
This campaign is an important way that George W. Bush and
his administration can be held accountable for their mad and
reckless war, for their assault on the Bill of Rights, for
their abuse of power, and for other high crimes and
misdemeanors.

It is up to us. Together, we can do it.
