The calls for the impeachment of Dick Cheney, and possibly President Bush are beginning to reach a crescendo, and we know the fascists in our country are getting worried when the MSM refuses to give a US Congressman any credence or airtime when he is calling for the Impeachment of Dick Cheney. If people doubt the Internet is a serious medium for political discussion and a way to get across a message, watch how the message of Rep. Robert Wexler (D-FL) will permeate every major political site on the Internet. These are some excerpts from Rep Wexler from RAW Story, and it’s a story made for Christmas the way it warms the hearts of those attempting to bring democracy back to America:

Spurned by major newspapers, Dem Congressman takes ‘impeach Cheney’ appeal to Web

As the House Judiciary Committee continues to refuse any action on proposals to impeach Vice President Dick Cheney, three of that panel’s members tried to take their case to influential op-ed pages of the nation’s largest newspapers.

They were turned down by every one — including the New York Times, Washington Post and Miami Herald — so now one of the lawmakers has taken his campaign to the Internet. (Emphasis added.So much for the New York Crimes attempting to report real news again…)

Rep. Robert Wexler (D-FL) on Friday launched a new Web site, WexlerWantsHearings.com to advance his call to impeach Cheney. The site hosts an op-ed article censored by the nation’s major newspapers and outlines the case for impeaching Cheney.

“The truth is the mainstream media have no interest in this issue,” Wexler said Friday.

“They have bought into the notion that impeachment hearings are outside the bounds of what the congress ought to be doing,” the six-term Congressman elaborated during a conference call Friday. MUCH MORE

In an interview that almost made me gasp, I read where ABC’s John Stossel interviewed Republican Presidential candidate Ron Paul, and they actually allowed him enough time to express his opinion, and the words he stated should be echoed on every television in America! Maybe Christmas will hold a special meaning this year, and as the average American is struggling to buy gifts and still keep up with the bills, Bush’s fiscal mismanagement is touching people all across the nation, up close and personal. Our lives are progressively getting worse financially as prices are spiraling out of control, and then Ron Paul spoke words that should go down in history for his brutal honesty, a trait that’s almost non-existent in most of the Presidential candidates. (Except for Dennis Kucinich, and even I haven’t heard words from him this strong!)

When The Media Grew Ears: ABC

by William Westmiller

The American media has discovered that Ron Paul has something to say, knows his facts, and is able to offer a cogent defense of his political positions. Most of the other candidates have had ample opportunities to respond to questions in an open interview format, but those have been rare and brief segments for Ron Paul. It seems that some media outlets have grown ears and are now ready to listen.

ABC News’ John Stossel has always had libertarian inclinations – they’re evident in his 20/20 segments and specials. This week, he sat down with Ron Paul to discuss a host of issues … and allowed him to offer complete responses to each question. The interview is posted on the web and will likely be broadcast at an opportune moment. The chat between “Two Libertarians”, is offered in six segments:

# Constitutional Freedoms

Stossel: You talk about freedom and tyranny. I seldom hear politicians use those words.

Paul: That’s right. I think those are our only two choices and we’ve had a grand experiment in this country, where we emphasize freedom. If you read the constitution, the constitution was designed to protect individual liberty, to restrain the government.

I am nothing more than a patriotic American that is doing whatever I can to further the cause of democracy, the rule of law, and am absolutely outraged on how the Bush administration is defying our Congress, the Constitution, and the Bill of Rights! (more...)
