My latest project

[ritaxis]

I'm from California, but I'm contacting all the representatives about this.

Bill Clinton was impeached for having sex. George Bush has spearheaded an organized attack on the Constitution: has repeatedly lied about matters of national policy and security, has condoned and promulgated the use of torture, kidnapping and even murder: continues to flout decency and the laws of man. He has surrounded himself with criminals of every stripe. There is no crime his advisors and employees have not committed, from petty bribery to grand ciorruption, and not excluding sex crimes. And he is still untouched by Congress and the courts.

What are you waiting for?

Impeach this man, and begin to recover our national dignity and the esteem of the world which he has so enthusiastically squandered.

Thank you,

Lucy Kemnitzer

I'm having trouble: each rep has a different email protocal, mostly annoying forms which require a lot of information, and so far, three out of seven forms don't actually work.

But I intend to do both houses over the next week. Whenever I have a moment. One by one by one.

I started thinking about doing politics outside the state during the election, when it was clear that the national system has been tinkered with to disenfranchise and possibly even punish voters from populous states, especially New York and California. So I wrote letters which I do not think were published to newspapers in the swing states, telling voters in those states that I r4eally hoped they valued their vote and would go out and vote, since my own vote was worth a fraction of theirs and I was surely going to.

The proposal by some of the president's friends to destroy the census -- to count only citizens -- is also an attempt to disenfranchise populous states, since populous states have more non-citizens proportionately than the others.
