Message from Congressman Robert Wexler
Date: Thursday, 27 December 2007, 6:49 p.m.
As we prepare to celebrate the New Year, my resolution is to hold George Bush and Dick Cheney accountable for their abuses of power.
In the last days, we have made real progress:
The mainstream media has awakened to this movement and to the extraordinary supportyou have given it. Your calls, letters, and
emails have clearly made a difference. Already 140,000 people have
joined us in demanding impeachment hearings for Vice President Dick
Cheney by signing up at: www.WexlerWantsHear

The power of these combined voices are already shaking up the
established order on Capitol Hill and throughout the mainstream
media:
This week, the Miami Herald printed an article on our efforts that
was syndicated in papers across the country, including the Detroit
Free Press, Philadelphia Inquirer, Fort Worth Telegram, Contra Costa
Times, Sacramento Bee, Houston Chronicle, Chicago Tribune, NC News &
Observer, and others.

In addition, CBS4 in Miami became the first station we know of to run
a television segment about the call for hearings. Video of that can
be found HERE:

Perhaps most importantly, just this morning the Philadelphia Inquirer
courageously ran the full editorial I drafted along with my fellow
Judiciary Committee members Rep. Luis Gutierrez (D-IL) and Rep. Tammy
Baldwin (R-WI).

Congratulations to the Inquirer for their willingness to publish a
viewpoint that is so widely held by Americans – yet one that other
leading national newspapers refused to publish.
We have come so far in just a few weeks No longer can the mainstream
media ignore our efforts and dismiss this cause as only part of the
fringe left.
Already we are seeing tangible results from our combined effort. As
you already know, Congress is well behind the American people on this
issue. This is an uphill battle, but it's one that has to be fought.
It should not be the whole agenda, but it needs be on the agenda.
When Congress reconvenes in January, I plan to present a list to my
Judiciary Committee colleagues of every single person that signed up
at www.WexlerWantsHear
and ask them to join a letter in support of hearings. We will build
on the momentum you have given us.
Last week, I spent an hour on Blog Talk Radio outlining thoughts and
answering questions in regards to this work. So many people hit their
site that their servers temporarily went down. If you'd like to hear

Let's do our best to further spread the message so that list will be
up to a quarter million. Please continue to blog, email friends, and
insist that your family and friends sign up!
Thanks for your commitment.
Congressman Robert Wexler
P.S. I have been running online ads to make more people aware of our
impeachment campaign. If you are interested in making a contribution
