Kucinich: "In a free nation, nothing is more important than the truth."
Submitted by Michael Nystrom on Thu, 07/17/2008 - 10:52Nine Republicans Break Party Ranks: Send Impeachment Article to Judiciary for Hearings
In a stunning development which fell with the silence of a feather yesterday, nine Republicans broke with their iron-fisted party to put country first, and voted to send Rep. Dennis Kucinich's article of impeachment HR 1345 to the Judiciary, where Chairman John Conyers will hold a hearings on abuses of power by the Bush administration, according to the Congressional Quaterly's CQToday. The final vote was: Yea 238 - Nay 180.
The nine Republicans are:
Congressman Kevin Brady (TX), Congressman Wayne Gilchrest (MD), Congressman Walter B. Jones (NC), Congressman Don Manzullo (IL), Congressman Tim Murphy (PA), Congressman Ron Paul (TX), Congressman Dave Reichert (WA), Congressman Christopher Shays (CT)
One of the Republicans, Walter Jones, represents Camp LeJeune in North Carolina, one of the largest Marine bases in the country, and one which has borne heavily the sacrifice of the Iraq War.

How to spot a liar- Not necessarily off topic.
"One of the biggest myths about body language is the belief that eye contact, or lack of it, exposes a liar, says Michael Wheeler, a professor at Harvard Business School and an expert on negotiation tactics.
Even when presented with psychological evidence to the contrary, many of us still suspect that liars out themselves by averting their eyes. Says Wheeler, "It's very hard to surrender the belief that eye contact is a test of character."
Far more reliable than eye contact is tone of voice. With the exception of sociopaths, who are expert liars, most people sound tense, their voices highly pitched, when they fib.
However, don't confuse voice tone with verbal fumbling. People who are telling the truth tend to stumble over their words and have more imperfections in their speech. That comes from spontaneity, not nervous deceit. Studies show that liars tell less compelling accounts with fewer gestures than those who are telling the truth."

Vote with your wallet
If you want to see real "change you can believe in", send 5, 10 or 20 bucks to each of the nine reps. who voted. If enough people contribute to heroic actions like this, lo and behold a miracle would happen; truth, justice and the American way could finally get some traction because those that do the right thing would be immediatley rewarded, empowered and encouraged to do it again.

..and do NOT forget a donation to Kucinich. He deserves our support SO much..even if he IS a Democrat and in favor of strange domestic policies. He is a true Patriot and has guts and incredible persistence.

might want to reconsider that seeing how he voted YES on the housing bailout.

Change You Can Believe In
Great idea.
Send coins. They'll get the message.
UPDATE:
It seems they're not getting that message loud and clear enough. Earmark 2 cents ( 1982 pennies) of any contribution for his support for elimination of the Fed that will be monetizing this, and all bailouts.
Tell him ( and here I mean let him have your full 2 cents worth) he may need to report this contribution as 5 cents (its real value); but if he doesn't report until the end of the quarter, he may have to report 10 cents as matters get more out of control thanks to the rampage which follows monetary promiscuity.
Let's give our liberal friends a hand when they are constructive and the praise is due.... and let's engage them constructively and lend them a hand in understanding.

Thanks for posting this....
I was needing a little shot of good news.
And as I read the article I realized that MY rep voted for this. I am shocked and amazed....And so very proud of him. Not sure what brought this about from him, but I'm thrilled. I even sent him a note thanking him for his vote.
Clean the House!
all those that voted against impeachment should have brooms up their a**!!!

Errr...does anyone realize
Errr...does anyone realize who will be President if Bush is impeached? If impeachment should happen to anyone it probably should be Cheney actually. Ideally you wanna impeach both. It's probably a worse world to impeach Bush and give Satan the power directly.

Can someone link to the how people voted on this?
Isn't it a thomas.gov or something. Did a bunch of Google searches, but couldn't find...
How they voted.....
You can go to the Office of the Clerk here.....http://clerk.house.gov/floorsummary/floor.html
Click on the day you want and then look for the Roll number on the issue you want to see. There are links to the bills, sponsors and related bills there too. The daily summary on the House Floor is updated every few minutes. Hope this helps.

Wrap you brain around this: Good people, taught lies from birth
Maybe I am mistaken, and you have been fighting this battle your whole life - there are a few people like that out there. MOST of us got hooked into some lie, or set of lies. MOST of us have "awakened" from MOST of the lies we believed for a long, long time. MOST of us probably still believe something we ought not, or do not believe something we should. We have ALL been victims of misinformation and disinformation campaigns laced with ritual mockery.
Those "awful liberals" are people who love animals and want us to be kind to them. They think the earth is in danger and want to protect it. They see hungry people and want to help feed them. THEY HAVE GOOD HEARTS. They simply bought a different set of lies than you.
Have you examined your brain-washing lately? It should be daily practice.
Truth exists, and it deserves to be cherished.
