Impeach Cheney First

Impeach Cheney First

I'm persuaded of the value of this approach for several reasons. Among activists who very much want impeachment, one can hear a long list of fears and concerns about how things might go wrong, how impeachment could help Republicans who come around and back it, how impeachment could take energy away from elections, etc. But by far the most common of the nonsensical fears one hears is this one: "Impeaching Bush would give us Cheney, who is worse."

By proposing to impeach Cheney first, we eliminate this fear.

John Denver - Last Night I Had The Strangest Dream

John recites the Peace Poem before launching into song.

We need him now more than ever. He was a Peace Angel while he was here. It's too bad that the powers that be didn't pay more attention to him.

John Lennon - Happy Xmas (the War is Over)

John Lennon - Happy Xmas (the War is Over)

Happy Xmas (War Is Over) is a song that was written by John Lennon with partial help from Yoko Ono. It was recorded at the Record Plant in New York City in late October of 1971, with the help of producer Phil Spector. It features soaring, heavily echoed vocals, and a sing-along chorus. The children singing in the background were from the Harlem Community Choir and are credited on the song's single.

Directly following John Lennon's death on December 8, 1980, the song was re-released in the UK on December 20 1980.

Although the song is a protest song about the Vietnam War, it has become a Christmas standard and has appeared on several Christmas CDs. One of the best known versions was recorded live by Melissa Etheridge.

Closely related to the song: in late 1969, John Lennon and his wife Yoko Ono rented billboards and posters in eleven cities around the world that read: "WAR IS OVER! (If You Want It) Happy Christmas from John and Yoko." Five of the eleven cities included in the billboard campaign were New York, Tokyo, Rome, Amsterdam, and London. At the time the United States was deeply entrenched in the Vietnam War, which would later become a major political debacle.

I wonder what O'reilly thinks about This "Happy Christmas" song. It must be one of his favorites.

Freedom - better quality

Freedom - better quality

Fantastic video! It basically recaps every mistake, travesty, and abomination that's occurred under the Bush Administration and the GOP stranglehold on our Government. November 7th, 2006 - Happy Repudiation Day!

Funny, smart, and stirring. Tears came to my eyes. "Freedom" was an inspired choice for a soundtrack. George Michael should be proud. George Bush should be ashamed. Balance in our Democracy is needed if we are to persevere as a nation!
