For the past three years I have been involved with a wonderful organization called ICUJP: Interfaith Communities United for Justice and Peace, a group of people who came together after September 11th to say that religious communities should not be blessing war and violence. Some who blog here might know the Reverend George Regas from our organization - for those who don't, here's a copy of a sermon he gave at the National Cathedral that upset a few on the religious right.
TONIGHT at 7:00 p.m., ICUJP will be hosting a talk at Immanuel Presbyterian Church in Los Angeles - the question we will be asking is:
Should George Bush and Dick Cheney be Impeached? What are the Moral Implications of Impeachment?
I think it would be great if we all called/e-mailed/fax them our thanks for bringing this issue to the fore, and encourage them to keep on asking the hard questions:

Especially in light of recent news about the effectiveness of non-profits aligned with Dr. James Dobson, this program could not have come at a better time:
Nonprofit experts say raising that much money so quickly - the equivalent of $50,000 a day - is astounding, more evidence of the goodwill the child psychologist has built among supporters over a quarter-century of preaching conservative values.

I was inspired by the action that many of you were involved in around Sinclair Broadcasting. Using a variety of means including contacting advertisers and investment firms that had Sinclair as part of their mutual or pension funds, we were able to bring down Sinclair's stock price by $105 Million dollars in one week.
I've developed some ideas based on your successes - more info below the fold.
