Because of your vigilance and support for democracy, last Friday was a day of singular importance in Washington. The House Judiciary Committee met to discuss the Bush Administration's abuse of executive power and for the first time the case for Impeachment was discussed in front of a Congressional committee, in depth, at length and with authority.
Twenty members of the Judiciary Committee attended the six-hour hearing, during which twelve witnesses, including myself and four members of Congress testified. In this hearing I called for the Impeachment of the President for misrepresenting a case for war.
This week I will present members of Congress with Impeachment petitions submitted by those of you who have signed the on-line impeachment form.
I need your help. In the next few days we must redouble our efforts to get more signatures on the online petition at kucinich.us. I'm asking each of you to please contact at least ten of your friends to go to www.Kucinich.us now and sign the Impeachment petition that will be delivered by me. Wednesday night is the deadline.
Please send out an email to all your friends and family, post this link, http://kucinich.us to your blogs and make this effort count as this is the only petition that I will deliver.
Sign the petition. Thank you so very much.

Friday's hearing in the House Judiciary Committee that focused on executive power and the possibility of impeachment of President George W. Bush will re-air 8PM on C-span. It lasted 6 hours.
The hearing was brought about when former Democratic presidential candidate Dennis Kucinich, D-Ohio, brought impeachment charges against Bush. http://afterdowningstreet.org/hearingday
At 10 a.m. on Friday July 25th, the House Judiciary Committee held a preliminary hearing on the topic of impeachment, with a presentation by Congressman Dennis Kucinich. This is not yet a true impeachment hearing, but it is our opportunity to push for one, and it represents a tremendous victory after years of effort by millions of Americans who want to keep the Constitution alive.
You can watch it on your computer with this link to c-span
http://www.cspan.org/ Limits of Executive Power Today The hearing is partly based on a single article of impeachment Kucinich brought against Pres. Bush, and on alleged misconduct and unlawful expansion of executive power. Aired on C-SPAN at 10am (ET) and re-aired at 8pm.
Tomorrow, Friday July 25th, Dennis Kucinich will present evidence to the House Judiciary Committee on the abuse of power of the Bush Administration so Congress can decide whether to investigate impeachable offenses. Unless they know that the American people want this investigation, it's possible that nothing will happen. If you believe that this Administration must be held accountable, please sign and invite your friends to sign the online petition at www.Kucinich.us
