The ALCU is running this as a full page ad. Copy and pass along. Link
This is a good ad. It's clear. It's not a laundry list. The message is
simple. No one is above the law. It's asking for a simple action: a
call to a Member of Congress requesting an investigation. And it calls
to something commonly understood by every American: the system of
checks and balances.
If the wingers really want to contest that
-- regardless of who says it -- well, we can truth squad 'em with their
comments regarding a certain former President and his unfortunate
choice of recreational activities. Above the law, indeed. Consensual
sex, however tawdry, is not illegal. Lying about it under oath is, and
we know the results from that. I suspect *cough cough* lying under oath
is one of the lesser offenses of which President Bush and
Vice-President Cheney may be accused.
And regardless whether we ever see an impeachment of President Bush and
Vice-President Cheney, it's important to insist that the process be
followed, with the full force and intent of the law.
