DETAILS:

On Saturday, Feb. 4, tens of thousands will travel from across the country to the national seat of government with a single demand: Bush Step Down And Take Your Program with You. The crowd will rally beginning at 11am, then encircle the White House at 2 p.m.

World Can't Wait is quickly attracting a surprising and broad range of well-known people in public life including U.S. Congressional Representatives JOHN CONYERS, CYNTHIA MCKINNEY, MAXINE WATERS, BOBBIE RUSH, and MAJOR OWENS, along with HARRY BELAFONTE, LEWIS LAPHAM, MARK RUFFALO, SEAN PENN, SUSAN SARANDON, GLORIA STEINEM, SERJ TANKIAN, CORNEL WEST, HAROLD PINTER, and PAUL HAGGIS. Two full-page ads have appeared in the New York Times and spots are running nationally on Air America radio.

Debra Sweet, national coordinator of World Can't Wait-Drive Out the Bush Regime, states, "Torture, war, the rule of law and separation of church state eviscerated, an extreme rightwing Supreme Court nominee goes essentially unopposed... The hour is late. This whole regime is illegitimate and criminal, and politics as usual have failed to stop it. Bush will not be indicted, impeached, or driven from office without massive, determined, unrelenting protest with the concrete demand that BUSH STEP DOWN. This is what we set out to do."

On the night of the State of the Union address, at exactly 9 p.m. as Bush stepped to the podium, there were World Can't Wait rallies to "drown-out Bush's lies" in over 60 U.S. cities, including Greensboro, N.C., where 7 protesters were arrested, and in Iraq where several U.S. soldiers shot rounds of artillery into the air at 9 p.m. EST to drown out Bush.

"Beware of the "Politically Correct RINO's" on FR new, so called GOP Party line, about the GOP putting on a kinder face."

Screw "Kinder Face" ~ it's way past time to kick-ass and take names!

[TAdams8591]

I was thinking the same thing.

[Fudd Fan]

Hear, hear and Amen.

[Gucho]

Bump!

[andie74]

Never heard of any of these people, except Sharpton.

And I'll bet you wish you'd never heard of him!

"Not to slam DeLay, but I think this will represent a kinder face of the Republican party as well. DeLay was a good solid conservative, and I know good solid conservatives who thought he came across as very mean spirited."

Actual quote from a "Politically Correct RINO's" on FR
on a thread yesterday.

I won't embarass the person by mentioning them by name
BUT these are the types
who will cost conservatives seats in '06 and '08

[HarleyLady27]

yeah right, and in your dreams....

If you don't like Our President, people, then man the boats and paddle yourselves OUT OF HERE....

We certainly won't miss any of you...

"...a single demand: Bush Step Down And Take Your Program with You."

I kinda thought perhaps this constituted treason.
