New Spring ‘08 flyers! (copy front and back side, cut in middle, then distribute!)
Every once in a while I like to google the words “bush +impeach” to see what the search engines are turning up. Last July Google gave us 2,310,000 results. And today, February 17th — 519,000.
What the heck happened to the other 1,791,000 results Google? And by the way, the impeachment movement is GROWING not shrinking. Google, why are you doing this?

In July ‘07 Yahoo search returned 6,530,000 results. Today the Yahoo results are 15,000,000 which shows a growth of more than double!!
Let’s try another combination of words “bush +impeachment” (This will be our baseline for future comparisons)
Yahoo 02-17-09 = 20,600,000 ! — screenshot
Google 02-17-09 = 297,000 — screen shot — YOU ARE KIDDING ME !?
When using the combination “bush +impeachment” the discrepancy is even more apparent . Look for an update in a couple of months.
On Saturday, January 12, sixty year-old patriot John Nirenberg walked the final leg of his historic march from Boston to Washington, DC to urge Congress to hold impeachment hearings on Bush and Cheney. We welcome him (and other impeach supporters) to DC with a march to the seat of the original U.S. Constitution at the National Archives. This video includes inspiring speeches from John, David Swanson and Ray McGovern as well as comments from marchers. 31 minutes.

Kent Bye’s “Echo Chamber Project” is attempting a new type of citizen journalism: an “open source, investigative documentary about the how the television news media became an uncritical echo chamber to the Executive Branch leading up to the war in Iraq.” By “open source,” Bye means that he is sharing both the transcripts and footage from his documentary with anyone who wants to use it or remix it with other footage as they see fit. He is also trying to “develop more sophisticated techniques for citizen journalism,” including new software tools that will enable other collaborative efforts. A preliminary video of the Echo Chamber Project is available on OurMedia.org, a non-profit initiative that provides free storage space and bandwidth to anyone with videos, audio files, text files, or software that they’d like to share with the world.
