This is the last protest for "Impeachment of dick n george" outside of Earl Blumenauer's (House District 3 Rep) office on 1.15.09 in Portland, Oregon[...] This video protest is the last after doing this every Thursday for 2 hours for about 1.5 years[.] We even had a jailbird (fake) Bush join us for "the last one"[.] The rubber chickens were there (Reed & Pelosi) and quite a few "shoes to toss around"[.] The dozen citizens who were there you will recognize from previous videos...
Thanks to Portland Indy Media for helping spread the word of this weekly vigil for justice[.] Thanks to the Lone Vet for inspiring us and being willing to face off with Earl to get this vigil going...

In respect and solidarity with the Veterans for Peace local Chapter 72 whose National President was a speaker at this meeting, and all the other activists who are working for Justice and compliance with our Constitution. I filmed two short clips from the two hours I was there at the coffee shop.

This marks the one solid year of weekly protesting for accountability and justice outside (and inside) our Congressman's Earl Blumenauer's office
This skit pokes fun at the obvious facts that the USA accept Bush's tolerance and accept that Bush and the Democrat-controlled-Congress will allow torture and human right lawbreaking to continue. The skit also pokes fun at the House Rep in Dist #3 here in Oregon who finds it not illegal or morally wrong to let the Bush administration continue doing what ever they want in-spite of written laws and our Constitution of the United States?

January 1, 2008, Pasadena: At approximately 7:15am four of us began our walk along the Rose Parade route in advance of the parade. We held banners and signs calling for impeachment and urged people to text 30644 to support the impeachment of Dick Cheney.
(A block or so behind us was a contingent of people with signs protesting China’s human rights atrocities and its hosting the upcoming Olympics. A float celebrating the Beijing Olympics would be in the parade. This group had an impressive presence with many people and signs visible.)
The members of our group agreed that there was significant positive response to our message as well as considerable negative reactions and blank stares. However, some of us were rather positive in our final analyses, while I tilted toward the negative. Full Report from the Newswire: ATTACK OF THE ARCHIE BUNKER CLONES!

Three senior citizens were arrested in front of Representative Earl Blumenauer's office building on Thursday, December 20, the twenty-first week in a row that protestors have called for the impeachment of Bush and Cheney. Sara Graham, Joe Walsh, also known as The Lone Vet and dressed as "Santa" and Marilyn Pike were arrested after police earnestly tried to convince the group to move.
The Lone Vet initiated the protests because he feels that it is the responsibility of American citizens to challenge the illegality of the Bush administration. "George Bush has caused me to be ashamed to be an American; Earl Blumenauer has caused me to be ashamed to be a democrat. We are willing to risk arrest to send a message that Bush is the one who should face a judge."
