Oh, and from the current editorial in the Pasadena Weekly:

"Impeachment advocates are widely mobilizing in the US. Over 1,000 letters to the editors of major newspapers have been printed in the past six months asking for impeachment. Pittsburgh Post-Gazette letter writer George Matus says, "I am still enraged over unasked questions about exit polls, touch-screen voting, Iraq, the cost of the new Medicare … who formulated our energy policy, Jack Abramoff, the Downing Street Memos and impeachment."

David Anderson in McMinnville, Ore., pens to The Oregonian, "Where are the members of our congressional delegation now in demanding the current president's actions be investigated to see if impeachment or censure are appropriate actions?"
William Dwyer's letter in the Charleston Gazette says, "Congress will never have the courage to start the impeachment process without a groundswell of outrage from the people."

City councils, boards of supervisors and local and state level Democrat central committees have voted for impeachment. The city of Arcata voted for impeachment on Jan. 6. The city and county of San Francisco voted Yes on Feb. 28. The Sonoma County Democrat Central Committee voted for impeachment on March 16. The townships of Newfane, Brookfield, Dummerston, Marlboro and Putney in Vermont all voted for impeachment the first week of March.

The New Mexico State Democrat Party convention rallied on March 18 for "the impeachment of George Bush and his lawful removal from office." The national Green Party called for impeachment on Jan. 3. Op-ed writers at the St. Petersburg Times, Newsday, Yale Daily News, Barrons, the Detroit Free Press and the Boston Globe have called for impeachment. The San Francisco Bay Guardian, The Nation and Harpers published cover articles calling for impeachment.

As of March 16, 32 members of the US House of Representatives have signed on as co-sponsors to House Resolution 635, which would create a select committee to look into the grounds for recommending President Bush's impeachment.

Polls show that nearly a majority of Americans favor impeachment. In October, Public Affairs Research found that 50 percent of Americans said that President Bush should be impeached if he lied about the war in Iraq. A Zogby International poll from early November found that 53 percent of Americans say, "If President Bush did not tell the truth about his reasons for going to war with Iraq, Congress should consider holding him accountable through impeachment." A March 16 poll by American Research Group showed that 42 percent of Americans favored impeaching Bush.
