US Senate Candidate Sheeler On Fox, AP and Military News Impeach Bush

[CarlSheeler4U]

I am very, very proud of your help in blogging and emailing to others and the media, the importance of our efforts to get our Impeach Bush message to the public. If you can't find it, google Sheeler Bush Lied. People Died. It's time to be tried.

http://www.carlsheeler.com/speech_bush_lied.asp

First, it was our Be Patriotic Impeach Bush billboard on I-95 a few weeks ago. Now, we challenged our state assembly to take the step in preparing a resolution to be forwarded to Congress, which must be heard on the floor.

We can do more. We need to do more. Stop just blogging your opinions to others who already share your beliefs. In the Marines we call that "grab-assing". Might make you feel better, but does it change anything?

We need to email the Rhode Island legislators! We need more Impeach Bush billboards! We need to materially support candidates who want the kind of democracy of "of, for and by the people..." we all believe in. Is it worth fighting for? Are you willing to do this? How many people do you know that are even aware of what most of us even know? If you guessed over 20%, you're optimistic.

Simply, our lives have become more busy and we spend our limited time on our own priorities most of the time. I have been stumping and found only two of ten people know who the VP of the US is. Painful, but true. This is exactly why most candidates raise the sums of money they do for 30 second commercials to capture an image of themselves, not really who they are or what they'll really do.

So sadly, money is important or we have to have a means to blast information to select people who will do something. Did you know only about 20% of the population actually votes in primaries? Now you're getting it. So the goals have to be: 1)increase primary voter turnout and 2) find a means to increase public awareness.

I need your help.

3. Thanks Pat. How can we kick this up at DU and others?

[pat_k]

10. General, DUers are less responsive on Fridays

. . for the same reason that Fri-Sat-Sun polls ALWAYS favor the fascists.

Anti-fascists get out more on the weekends!

Air America Radio is a great way to get the word out to the "troops"!

The call in number is the same for all the shows: 1-866-303-2270

Any of us can call in and talk about how the Sheeler for U.S. Senate Campaign in Rhode Island is fighting for Impeachment -- and how we can use his campaign to send a message candidates across the nation. Looking for something to say? Some ideas:

• Money Talks. If Carl raises a SIGNIFICANT amount of money is a SHORT time, we can point to his campaign as proof that fighting for Impeachment is not just the RIGHT thing to do, it is the WINNING thing to do!
  
  As we call on our own elected officials and candidates to fight for impeachment, the most powerful thing we can bring to the table is a concrete example of a campaign that is mobilizing people and raising real money. We can make the Sheeler for U.S. Senate Campaign that example!
  
  We don't have many leaders who are making powerful demands for Impeachment. If we want more of them, we must contribute what we can, spread the word, and ask others to do the same. Go to www.carlsheeler.com NOW.


• His "Impeach Bush" Billboard is fantastic!. People can check it out on the carlsheeler.com (and while there, why not make a contribution?)
  
  If we want to see MANY more billboards like this, we need to get on the stick. Call on MoveOn.org or Working Assets start an "Impeach Bush billboards" furd raising drive.


• ANY state legislature can initiate impeachment. I'll say that again. As described in section 603 of the U.S. House Rules, any state legislature can initiate impeachment by describing the charges in a resolutin and conveying that resolution to the U.S. House of Representatives. Carl Sheeler is calling on the Rhode Island Assembly to do just that. We can do the same thing in our states. Go to afterdowningstreet.org and check out the "In Your State" section.

16. Pat Can we clone you?

I am very appreciative for all your suggestions and egging on others on the sidelines. This is the campaign of common sense qand uncommon courage of ordinary people doing extraordinary things together. While we working together have the experience money can't buy. This is a primary against wealthy "me too" Dems whose interest lies in legacies and not of, for and by the people. Isn't this the lackluster representation that brought us to this place? Isn't it the complacency that allowed the GOP to highjack our country, our economic prosperity and rights and hopes?

If you're not fed up - then please check your pulse because it is our time to bring our middle class back on track and I DO NEED YOUR HELP!

7. Yikes you're really going for it.

I regretably didn't learn of your event on Wednesday until I already had prior commitments.
Hope it went well. Keep it up and good luck.

[CarlSheeler4U]

17. We did well and it was well covered by media. Pass word.

Your good intentions mean a great deal to me. Thank you. Carl

8. Oh, boy -- will Schumer and Reid and Waxman go after

THIS "not Senatorial" candidate??

[Catrina]

9. I was wondering the same thing ~

He will need lots of money now that we know they tried to stop Paul Hackett's access to the money he needs~

AAR is definitely a great way to get people to know about this ~

Thanks for letting us know what you're doing ~ will keep spreading the word ~

12. You took the words right out of my mouth. n/t

[Ignacio Upton]

14. Well, while I agree with Sheeler

I don't see him as being as electable as Sheldon Whitehouse or Matt Brown.

[CarlSheeler4U]

18. Let 'em try. Watch my back!

[brentspeak]

21. Will do

I admit that I don't have a dog in this race (I'm from NJ); but I'll definitely be pi$$ed if The Powers That Be try to Hackett you or anybody else (and I'm pi$$ed enough already about what happened to Paul Hackett.)

[CarlSheeler4U]

24. Pissed, but what are you doing 'bout it?

[bleever]

11. K&R.
