ACTION: Ongoing - Commission Accountability for War Crimes

Here's a URL below to look at & perhaps sign along with others on this blog-site below this post.

I don't know how much of a chance we have with the Special Prosecutor completely independent from Congress for the Leaders/Administrators/Architects of the Bush/Cheney War Crimes - however, I have concluded that we may need to go ahead and vote several different ways with different opportunities (as well as sending FAXES, making our calls).

So here's another with a nice advantage - you can send the same petition/online letter to your entire email address list at once...

CLICK and find memos/key articles & documents as well HERE

Please be sure to READ & PASS ON the following experienced, humble, clear and FIRM letter whether or not you have any doubts that Independent Prosecution is needed & that the process much begin NOW!
