We want the Patriot Act to be repealed
We want the Military Commission Act repealed
We want the President impeached for High Crimes and Misdemeanors
We want the Tax Cuts for the top 1% of the population ended
We want our troops home from Iraq

The republicans have to know that impeachment procedures will be initiated in the Senate against President Bush for his crimes against, and lies to the American people. These things being true, I am very concerned about what the republicans will be willing to do (and what they are per...
