Dennis Kucinich has set a high mark calling for one million signatures to be delivered to the Judiciary Committee and Congress on Sept 10th. I only called for 200,000 myself, but as often happens, I didn't think big enough.



What kind of message can we send to America by reaching a million signatures? Will it really get him impeached? Probably not and that is why most won't sign it I'm sure. they'll say,"What would it accomplish? Nothing." Well, I think it can accomplish quite a bit actually. And the potential to do more is always there.



A Million signatures would be quite newsworthy I believe. I mean, 900,000 signatures in under a month to go with the 100,000 already delivered would be difficult to go unnoticed. With some momentum on that news, we could get the accountability issue into the debates. I for one wouldn't mind watching the candidates sweat a bit as they try to run from the issue.



The signatures would be delivered on the anniversary of Donald Rumsfeld's announcement of $2.3 TRILLION dollars, wandering aimlessly around the DoD. For those residing in the United States of Amnesia see here.



With the right wing sheeple and their sideshow of dogma and divisive distraction issues behind us, we can come back to real issues. Topics like this can find their way into the public conscience. The Georgia conflict timing was all too perfect, as things like this always seem to be. Now the Republicans will beat the national security drum ad nauseum. The issue of accountability for their warmongering must come to the forefront.



It will also add much greater pressure on the legal issue. It will make Conyers reconvene the committee again. Can they ignore the evidence gathered by Ron Suskind and a million signature petition? I believe we have much to gain even in the intangible knowledge that people still get together for what's right. We know what the outcome is if we do nothing.



A million man march on congress. No need for gas, travel, hotels, traffic, just a few clicks away. No Convoy needed. You can find Dennis' message here. Let's see what a million signatures can do. and you can sign the official petition.
