Condi Must Go! - Watch the Smoking Gun Video and please sign the petition!

Condi Must Go - Watch the Smoking Gun Video

Thanks to a new report http://abcnews.go.com/TheLaw/LawPolitics/Story?id=4635175">from ABC News, we now know that Condoleezza Rice led White House meetings
authorizing torture that were so detailed, "the interrogation sessions were almost choreographed."


Watch the video: http://bravenewfilms.org/watch/27393176/35714?utm_source=rgemail

How can we express the terrible shock we have felt from the fact that our government is using torture?
How can we express what so many of us are thinking-that it is absolutely appalling to know that our
representatives are implementing barbaric instruments of torture as policy? How do we express our
moral outrage?

Perhaps more importantly, how do we begin to take steps towards ending this heinous crime?

http://bravenewfilms.org/watch/27393176/35714?utm_source=rgemail">Sign the petition and demand Secretary of State Rice to resign.

Our allies at True Majority, USAction, and Democracy for America have launched a campaign to START
calling out our leaders by focusing on Condoleezza Rice. No, she is not the President. But we want
to call attention to the fact that the Secretary of State called for torture when she was National
Security Adviser.

This is our campaign to get all three Presidential nominees to call for Rice's resignation.
Accountability must start with her, especially now that she's being mentioned as a potential Vice
Presidential candidate. We want to push all the Presidential candidates on this issue. They need to
make a public stance: Condi Must Go!

Join us in taking action. Join us in creating a firestorm while the traditional media is missing in action.

Join us in spreading the word to mobilize our country.

We cannot tolerate officials with a blatant disregard for human rights.

Yours,
Robert Greenwald
and the Brave New Team


P.S. Your support to get McCain to co-sponsor the GI Bill for the 21st Century has been fantastic-we
had over 33,000 signatures that we delivered to John McCain's office on Monday! But yesterday, McCain
declared he STILL won't sign the GI Bill, despite its bipartisan support from 54 senators. McCain has
the unfounded fear that improving GI benefits would encourage our troops to leave the military and go
to college.

If you haven't done so, http://bravenewfilms.org/watch/27393176/34701?utm_source=rgemail">please sign our GI Bill petition now and pass it along to your friends.
We must keep the pressure on McCain, whose hypocrisy on this issue is blatant!

17. I HONESTLY did not know that I could rec more than once....
...per 24hrs. (I have been here for awhile too!) NOW I understand how all those GDP threads get so many rec's so fast. The things one learns in the BIG OL' DU!

I just e-mailed the petition to all my chums AND PMed your thread to a fellow DUer. Thank you for bringing this petition to our attention. I was watching the numbers go up after I posted my signature to it. I suspect that there will be the needed 100,000 signatures well before Monday!
Now I must be off to spread my newfound wealth of recommendations to a few other GREAT DU threads

31. Don't feel bad about not knowing that, my friend...
My good friend joined DU in 2005, after my sending her DU threads for ages, as a surprise for my birthday. For her birthday, a month later, I gave her a star. But she had no idea what I meant when I suggested that she recommend something, so I had to explain, LOL. I sent her this thread, but included instructions on how you recommend something, in case she'd forgotten... :D You're not alone...:hi:
