The Oklahoma City IMPEACH BUSH Meetup group is organizing an IMPEACH BUSH RALLY on the south steps of the Oklahoma State Capitol Bldg. on Thursday, 6-16 @ 5PM in solidarity with Rep. Conyers and 87 other members of Congress who will be holding a hearing in DC on Thursday; a call for IMMEDIATE ANSWERS about the SECRET BUSH/BLAIR PREWAR DEAL as revealed in the "Downing Street Memo".
U. Sam commented about Cindy Sheehan here at PDX INDY --
"She is an amazing woman and her writing hits hard, deep into your heart, those opposed to illegal war will find allot of ammunition in her common sense and objective analysis." Comment at "Cindy Sheehan on MSNBC indicts Bush" ![]() U. Sam also advises that you can find Sheehan's writing at ![]() Someone else has commented: "Cindy just reached out as a mother who is committed to stopping the madness. A real human being versus the corrupt apologists for a failed Iraq policy."

From John Conyers --
"For those commenters who were concerned (or hoping) that there would be a media blackout of the forum, that will not be the case. I have every major network, other than Fox, bringing cameras to the hearing. Nightline is taping the event, which I think represents a welcome development from a well respected investigative program. In addition, C-Span 3 and Radio Pacifica are carrying it live."
Cascadians are not ready nor have the resources to respond to major traumatic events within Cascadia. This is a call to all the people of Cascadia to form (with or without state approval) something like the "Joint Action Citizenry Corp" (J.A.C.C.) or Jacks.

Proposing an amendment to the Constitution of the United States to repeal the 22nd amendment to the Constitution. Sponsor: Rep Hoyer, Steny H. [MD-5] (introduced 2/17/2005)
If you're not familiar with Earth First! or are but have never felt a part of the movement, we'd like to extend an extra special invitation to these events and of course the Rendezvous itself! If you already consider yourself an Earth First!er, we'd love it if you could help out with Rendezvous preparations! Look for our contact information below. The first event, taking place on Monday June 27th, will examine the past 20 years of EcoDefense history in Portland. The second, on Friday July 1st, will look at the life and organizing work of Judi Bari, a member of both the Industrial Workers of the World and Earth First!, who endeavored to bridge the gaps between environmentalists and timber workers. Bari survived an assassination attempt and severe FBI COINTELPRO repression for her efforts.

Democratic Members of House Judiciary Cmte. Hearing on Downing St. Memo and Iraq War On C-SPAN3 at 2:30pm ET
from Kucinich website:
"HEARINGS ON DOWNING STREET MINUTES MOVED TO U.S. CAPITOL AND MOVED TO 2:30" Important Speakers Added to Line-Up at Rally Citizens urged to lobby Congress Members and Senators, and to meet at DNC, which is serving as overflow room. Later on the same day at 5:00 p.m. ET in Lafayette Square Park, in front of the White House, a large rally will support Congressman Conyers who plans to deliver to the White House a letter addressed to President Bush and signed by over 500,000 Americans and at least 94 Congress Members. The letter asks the President to respond to questions raised by the Downing Street Minutes.
In a sign of how far relationships on the House Judiciary Committee have soured, majority staff recently announced a new policy to deny any request from a committee Democrat for the use of a committee hearing room. (Meaning, minority Democrat chair, Congressman John Conyers.)
The friction goes back to December, 2004, when Conyers sought a Judiciary Committee investigation into irregularities in the Ohio vote count and related voter suppression. The current issue is the Conyers demand for a Congressional investigation into the Downing Street Minutes and other evidence of impeachable offenses by the President, Vice-President and Secretary of Defense.

Let's go back to 2002 and think about what the American people hoped for in Iraq. Such a review provides context to the latest British document leaked to the press and leads inevitably to the conclusion that both the British and American people were grossly misled.

Having failed to kill off Social Security with private accounts, conservatives in Congress are now trying to render it useless by raising the retirement age further—this time to 69. That may be okay for a Wall Street lawyer who runs half-marathons and spends two hours in the gym, but for the average American worker bee, employers have by that point pretty much ruined her or his health and body. Some "reform." --------------

Early on Wednesday, June 2, a dog known as "Mr. Bear" died in Southeast Portland. Mr. Bear was a much-loved resident of the neighborhood, where he was seen on a daily basis with his devoted companion, a human named "Bill". Many were the times when customers of local businesses such as People's Food Co-op or the Red & Black Cafe would have to step around Mr. Bear, as he sat in the doorway, awaiting Bill, who was inside. Mr. Bear was arguably the canine mascot of the neighborhood and news of his death -- at 13 years, from a blood clot -- stirred sadness in many residents. Tonight, the Red & Black Cafe was packed to standing room only for a wake for Mr. Bear, and his life and passing were marked with music, photography, video, testimony, and sacred drumming.

The Iraqi Labor Tour 2005 is coming to Portland, OR on Wednesday June 22.
"The Iraqi Labor Tour 2005 will provide a rare opportunity for Oregonians to hear directly from courageous Iraqi labor union leaders who struggled for years under Saddam Hussein's repression and who have now stepped forward to organize workers under difficult circumstances of violence and occupation." The quote above is from the JWJ site promoting this event. It is listed on the Indymedia Calendar. I'm hoping to start a conversation about this event and these labor representatives. I was inpsired by an article at Feral Scholar, the website of author Stan Goff.
