Dear friends and activists,
Are we serious about impeaching Cheney, or like what? You bet we are!
No action page we have ever done has drawn as much immediate and passionate
response (LATEST COUNT 36,000 votes already) as the National Cheney Impeachment
Poll, a strong indicator that the public will is out there if only we mobilize
it. And you are receiving this update alert because you have already submitted
your vote in this round. But many of you are asking yourselves, "what ELSE they
can I do to help in this initiative?"
In this message we will propose TWO incredibly powerful things, which if enough
of us do them, impeachment will quickly become reality.
The key is that all we really need to do is get other people to ASK if Cheney
should be impeached. We don't have to push people about why. Everybody by now
KNOWS why, as witnessed by Cheney's 9 percent approval rating. Just in getting
people to ask the question we win, because THEN it becomes a serious issue that
is being considered, and in that process the entire debate shifts.
So here's what we all need to do next:
1) EMAIL AND BLOG SIGNATURES
Did you ever notice how mail email service providers add a promo for their own
service at the bottom of all your own messages. Why do you think they do that?
Because it's massive advertising, that's why. Think of all the millions and
millions of emails we send to each other every day. Suppose we all added the
following to our outgoing email signatures (just as you also see at the bottom
of this particular email).

Add this text to your own email and blog signatures!
Just those three lines above, multiplied by all of our participants, multiplied
by the number of emails we send every day in our normal lives. Can you imagine
how that will spread in giant self-propagating waves to every corner of the
internet? If we just set our minds and DO IT.
It is so easy. Just find the signature setting feature of your email client,
paste in the three lines above and that's it. You don't even have to suggest
how people should vote. Because when enough people ask the question, the wheels
in Congress will start to turn, and the result will be inevitable.
For example, in Outlook Express, in the menu go to Tools->Options->Signatures
(tab)->New (button) and paste the text in, and then check the box "Add
signatures to all outgoing messages". Also UN-check the box "Don't add
signatures to Replies and Forwards". Click Apply, then OK to save and you're
done and it's automatic.
In Gmail, click on Settings (upper right corner of interface) -> General (tab)
and paste into the Signatures section 1/2 way down. Any other email client
should be as easy. Just look for something called "Signatures" in the settings.
Many blogs will allow you to do something parallel and this can be even MORE
powerful. What do you think would happen if blog posts everywhere were riddled
with such references? Do ya think that might make a public demonstration of the
sentiment for impeachment? Do ya think the rest of the media would start to
take notice? Ya think? You bet they will.
2) WEB SITE ACTION BUTTONS
In support of this Cheney Impeachment action we have developed and are
unleashing a spectacular new piece of internet technology, and all you have to
do is use it. If you have a web site of your own, or even just a blog of some
kind, here is a page of special buttons and banners that will recruit more and
more people to not only vote in the poll, but add these same features to their
own sites.
http://www.usalone.com/cheney_impeachment2.php
The examples in the first section have been tested working on Blogspot.com, and
should work on any site that allows you to post javascript, including ALL sites
where you have your own domain name of course. These action graphics
dynamically display total votes cast so far, and when you click on their main
section they pop up a one click direct submission window to Congress without
taking you off the originating page.
You can see one of these working at the top of all pages on
http://www.OpEdNews.com right now!
The examples in the second section will work for people with accounts on MySpace
type blogs where they censor the kind of code you can post. These still open up
the special direct submission window, and there is also a link where people can
get the same buttons for their own site.
And for people who can only post text links, as in regular blog posts, you can
copy the links in the third section of the page above.
LET'S GET SERIOUS
We've got a base right now that's plenty large enough to spark plug this whole
thing.
Some are talking about trying to get the heads of other larger progressive
groups to embrace the impeachment movement. We don't have to wait on anyone
else. YOU are the key activists. We can reach all the members of these other
groups DIRECTLY, if we just systematically do the email signatures, and the
button placements, that YOU ALREADY CONTROL in your lives. And we won't miss a
one.
Spring is in full swing and impeachment is in the air. It's going to be one hot
impeachment summer if we will have anything to do about it.
Please take action NOW, so we can win all victories that are supposed to be
ours, and forward this message to everyone else you know.
