Presidents' Day.
I started thinking about what Presidents' Day SHOULD mean, rather than what it has come to mean.Instead of focusing on white-sales, and appliances, perhaps we could focus on what's been white-washed, what's been filed away under "Presidential powers", "Executive privilege", and so on.I'm speaking (again), of the abuse of the office of the Presidency, and the office of Vice-President.There is still a possibility for impeachment of Dick Cheney, and even George W. Bush. In fact, it could actually happen!Check out this link, below, to add your name to those who believe this Administration should NOT be able to walk away free from all the lies, criminal acts, and unjust and illegal war that they perpetuated.

Then read the article below, for more bolstering--if you need any!
I'll be posting again in a day or so.I'm headed back to my numerous yellow legal pads, to work on more "The Book Of O: The Orgasm Poems", before I commit them to the computer.

Here's that article I mentioned earlier, in its entirety, from Democrats.com:
Something very important happened in Congress on Thursday, thanks to all of your emails and calls. After 7 years of cowering in fear of every dictatorial demand from Bush and Cheney, House Democrats finally rose up and said NO.
First, House Democrats refused to give immunity to the telecom giants for illegally wiretapping the calls and emails of every American - despite two Bush press conference hissyfits and endless Corporate Media lies.
Second, House Democrats declared Harriet Miers and Josh Bolten to be in contempt of Congress for rejecting subpoenas to testify about the U.S. Attorney scandal, despite a faux-angry walkout by Republicans. Watch Rep. Robert Wexler's excellent floor speech.
Could this be the start of holding George Bush and Dick Cheney accountable for their innumerable High Crimes, ultimately through impeachment?
The main problem we face is time. Since this is an election year, Congress will stop legislating and start campaigning full-time in May. Since impeachment hearings take time, those hearings must begin now.
Thanks to your emails and calls, 18 Democrats support Rep. Robert Wexler's call for Cheney impeachment hearings: http://www.afterdowningstreet.org/cheneyBut that's not enough - we need 100 Democrats to support Wexler in order to force Speaker Pelosi to hold these hearings.
This week, every Member of Congress will be home working at their District Offices and meeting with the voters who elect them. So let's send them a loud and clear message: Start Impeachment Hearings for Dick Cheney Now.
One great way to send that message is through "Honk to Impeach" actions at the District Offices of your Representative. These actions are fun and passing cars love it. It just takes 2-3 brave people to have a successful 1-hour event.
Here's a national map with ongoing honk-a-thons:http://www.communitywalk.com/impeachIf you don't see one near you, call your bravest friends and pick the date(s), time, and contact info. Find District Offices by searching for your Representative here:http://www.congress.org/congressorg/directory/congdir.tt?command=congdirThen create a map login and click "add a marker."
