>Nader: Support Rep. Conyers Call for Bush Impeachment Inquiry
>By Don DeBar, WBAI
>
>Calling Bush "the most impeachable President in US history," former
>presidential candidate Ralph Nader called for nationwide support of Rep.
>John Conyers effort to open an impeachment inquiry into the "lies and
>deceptions" which led to the invasion of Iraq.
>
>See links to video and audio of Nader's appearance last night in NYC.
>Video of Nader's speech (56 minutes) at
>www.regionalroundup.org/video/nader022505nyc.rm
>
>Audio at www.regionalroundup.org/nader022505audio.mp3
>
>In addition, Nader called for a referendum in Iraq on the occupation,
>which also appears at the Democracy Rising website,
>www.democracyrising.us as follows:
>
>Dear Friends: Since freedom and democracy are such a good thing, why not
>put it to the people of Iraq in a national referendum whether or not
>they want us to leave? Why not give the Iraqi people the right to
>exercise their democracy and vote whether or not they want freedom
>from our military and corporate occupation? Why not? Because eighty
>percent of Iraqis want us out. So do a majority of Americans. Why?
>Because the occupation of Iraq is not about freedom and democracy. It is
>about oil and military occupation.
>
>More and more Americans know the nature of the disaster that the Bush
>government, in our name, has created in oil-rich Iraq over 100,000
>Iraqi civilian lives lost (according to the Johns Hopkins School of
>Public Health), over 1,400 American lives lost, and thousands more
>seriously wounded and sick. People see the news stories describing the
>U.S. corporate takeover of Iraq through insider-deal corporate
>contractors with Bush administration donors.
>
>Through the Democracy Rising Peace Project we will help ignite the
>American people to say Bring the troops home, it is time for a
>responsible and rapid withdrawal from Iraq. Enough lives lost, enough
>billions spent it is time to leave Iraq to the Iraqis.
>
>The case against the war and occupation of Iraq, and the corporate
>takeover of our democracy is well documented. People want to know what
>are we to do?
>
>Now is the time to act. It is time to organize to end the illegal war and
>occupation of Iraq.
>
>The U.S. corporate and military forces will end up pulling out of Iraq.
>The question is when? Months? Years? Decades? After how many more
>preventable deaths, debilitating injuries and diseases? After how much
>destruction?
>
>That's up to us. Together we can end the occupation and bring the troops
>home safely.
>
>Sincerely,
>
>Ralph Nader
