Our Imploding President

"Katrina will be Bush's Monica."

Tom Engelhardt (TomDispatch.com) Interviews Cindy Sheehan:

"As Sheehan approaches, she's mobbed. She hugs some of her greeters, poses for photos with others, listens briefly while people tell her they came all the way from California or Colorado just to see her, and accepts the literal T-shirt off the back of a man, possibly a vet, with a bandana around his forehead, who wants to give her "the shirt off my back." She is brief and utterly patient. She offers a word to everyone and anyone...."

Cindy Sheehan writes:

"I had a huge grin on my face when I was getting arrested. I have received a lot of flak for smiling. Apparently I am not supposed to smile, but I had some really good reasons for doing so...."

"Suppose...": Arguments for an Impeachment Resolution

Bernard Weiner (The Crisis Papers) writes:

"...Introducing a resolution calling for impeachment hearings is the first serious step along that road back to political sanity and moral accountability for our country. Let's demand that our Representatives in Congress do it, and if they won't, we will elect those who will."

Iraq War Veterans' Presence in DC Unreported

Eric Herter (Common Dreams) reports:

"The New York Times (Sept. 25, 2005) and much of the other news coverage of Saturday's anti-war demonstration in Washington, D.C. failed to note the presence of a particularly knowledgeable group of protestors - recently-returned veterans of the war in Iraq...."

The News Media and the Anti-War Movement

Norman Solomon reports:

"Over the weekend, many TV news watchers saw little or nothing about the anti-war protests. What's crucial is that the movement not allow its momentum to be interrupted by media treatment...."

Antiwar Rallies in Washington and Other Cities

The New York Times:

"Vast numbers of protesters from around the country poured onto the lawns behind the White House on Saturday to demonstrate their opposition to the war in Iraq, pointedly directing their anger at President Bush and Vice President Dick Cheney...."

Antiwar Fervor Fills the Streets

The Washington Post reports on the largest demonstration in the Capitol since the U.S. invaded Iraq.
