Calling all Impeachment Activists
Jun 22 2008, 11:40 AM EDT Adam Sullivan is challenging Rep. Jerrold Nadler for the right to represent the people of New York ’s 8th Congressional District. Nadler is a member of the House Judiciary Committee which has original jurisdiction over the bills introduced by Dennis Kucinich to impeach Dick Cheney and, more recently, Bush himself. Like millions of his fellow citizens, Adam Sullivan became outraged at the lies, corruption and incompetence of the Bush administration. He became a member of AskNadler2Impeach.org which was formed by neighbors in the 8th CD to put pressure on Nadler to support the call for impeachment hearings. Over 2295 people have signed AskNadler2Impeach’s petition. The organization also sponsored a Town Hall discussion on impeachment in March where speakers included Bruce Fein, Elizabeth Holtzman and Scott Horton. Rep. Nadler was invited to attend but chose not make an appearance (for info about obtaining a DVD of the event email info@asknadler2impeach.org). Adam Sullivan, AskNadler2Impeach and citizens across this country believe that when Jerrold Nadler took an oath to “protect and defend the Constitution of the United States against all enemies, foreign and domestic without any mental reservation or purpose of evasion” it meant something. Public servants like Nadler, John Conyers and Nancy Pelosi should not be permitted to shirk a duty they owe the country because it might prove to be politically inconvenient. There is more at stake here than the near term political fortunes of the Democratic Party. No elected official should be allowed to flout the law the way Bush and Cheney have. If you are a registered Democrat in New York State and agree with these sentiments, we need your help. Join us to collect signatures to get Adam Sullivan on the ballot for the September Democratic primary. The petitioning period ends July 10th. To volunteer, donate, or for more information about the campaign, go to SullivanforCongress.net. 1 out of 2 found this valuable. Do you? |
