"Impeach Bush" Freeway Messages

by Kingman Lim (kingmanl [at] fastmail.fm)
A call out to activists! Display "Impeach Bush-Cheney" banners over your local freeway overpass!

Every friday morning for the last few weeks, activists from Berkeley and Oakland have been soliciting the opinion of morning commuters by putting up signs declaring "Impeach Bush - Cheney" on the Berkeley pedestrian overpass over Highway 80. The response from drivers is overwhelmingly positive, but there is an occasional middle-finger or a shout to "Get a job!"

Senators Feinstein and Boxer have not started the impeachment process, but few people know that it is possible for a state Congress to start the impeachment process as well. Debates on whether or not to impeach Bush are spreading throughout the nation:

Hanging banners is a fun way to get your message out. If you are going to hang a banner from an overpass, please do it safely and responsibly. Police don't like it if you leave banners connected to permanent structures.

Contact your state representative and tell them you support any effort to impeach Bush and Cheney from office.

The new Berkeley pedestrian suspension overpass seems to be worth the taxpayer money.

Even in rural Oregon signs have been popping up. This one was up for over two weeks in a real Republican area of Oregon.....we were surprised that it stayed up so long.Finally a hwy cleanup crew got it.
