Not a “Group Joiner” or extremely busy ? Here are some easy steps you can follow to restore our Constitution with just a few tasks that you can manage directly with your own schedule and resources.


1. You, your family members and friends can request meetings and lobby your Congressional elected officials by calling the Congressional switchboard at 202-224-3121. This means Frank Wolf, Tom Davis, and Senators Jim Webb and John Warner.


2. Ask them to show leadership by sponsoring or voicing public support for House Resolution 333, which includes articles for Impeachment of Vice President Richard Cheney. Details and supporting documents showing how and where the Alleged Impeachable offenses were carried out can be obtained at http://kucinich.house.gov/SpotlightIssues/documents.htm


3. Make, distribute, and wear orange ribbon on lapel or pocket to show support. Polls show 54-40 in favor of Impeachment for Cheney. http://www.breitbart.com/article.php?id=070706195925.rdm9h3ci&show_article=1

This is one very simple way of taking control away from politicians and media who lack courage, and putting it back into our hands to show our numbers. It’s about restoring our constitution, returning our rights - Habeas Corpus, Free Speech, the end of Torture agenda, Guantanamo, and war crimes for profit. If you make extras, you can send them to us at PO Box 710426, Oak Hill VA 20171


4. Make and distribute copies of this DVD, and / or E mail your friends, co-workers and neighbors with the link: http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=3164289706643050437&hl=en and a copy of this note.
