you register, then log in and sign the petition plus ad yer own 2 cents, annd according to yer zip, they will send it to yer congressperson and both yer senators.

Rep Young,
are you aware of the amount of graft and insider profiteering that has gone on within the Bush administration? Consider the large quantity of money that is unaccounted for. I visited your own congressional web site during the onset of the Iraq War. You had a download for applications for private contractors inside Iraq.

This is tragic, the scripted scenario that we were fed by these neo-con artists. As a Vietnam veteran, I am telling you that I supported the Afghanistan War totally, and had spoken out against the criminal Iraq War before it started. Are you listening now?

Sincerely, J W, St Pete

that was my 2 cents worth an here is the letter to which yer 2 cents is attached as n addendumb, mon

Rep. Dennis Kucinich performed a heroic service for our Nation by introducing 35 Articles of Impeachment against President George W. Bush.
Rep. Kucinich thoroughly researched and documented every single article. Any one Article would be sufficient grounds for impeaching Bush and removing him from office; taken together, the case for impeachment is overwhelming and urgent.

I thank Rep. Kucinich for his true patriotism and I urge you, my Representative and Senators, to fully support all of his Articles of Impeachment.
