Corporate Media Tries to Kill A28
Today, thousands of Americans all over the country demanded impeachment. I posted links to all the actions reported to DU near the end of this thread:

Do a Yahoo! or Google search. The Cone of Silence has descended.

Meanwhile, back at Mendacity Central, the Resident was booed at his photo op in Miami
http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=view_all&address=389x780381

Torquemada Gonzalez was chased off the grounds of Harvard, http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=show_mesg&forum=389&topic_id=780444&mesg_id=780444

and more than one group called for the removal of Dick Cheney.

Somebody is in deep denial around here, and it ain't us. :evilgrin:

Who's up for some LTTE? Or, other ideas? I'm going to put an op ed together with links to the many great pix from today. What say you, DU?

3. Nice aerial pic! The MA impeachment was on local tv news once!
Edited on Sun Apr-29-07 01:48 AM by Breeze54
Now I can't find anything referring to it on local news websites. :(
They had live video of the event at Faneuil Hall, Boston on the afternoon news.
But that was it. Never saw anything else after that.

4. I caught 3 reports on local stations at about 11:15 last night
but this morning, nothing at the SF Chronicle website.

1500 people came from all over to do this event with the most minimal resources.

Maybe if we were a PAC or Dyncorp or an arm of a megachurch there would be a story. :mad:

19. The vid was shown again this morning but
it's nowhere to be found on ABC Boston local website! :grr:

http://www.thebostonchannel.com/index.html

They have this protest posted (Activists Gather To Protest Darfur Killings) but NOT the impeachment!

If I click here--> TheBostonChannel.com Weekly News Recap

http://www.thebostonchannel.com/slideshow/news/12989811/detail.html

It's just missing! But they showed it (the video) again, early this morning.

Assholes!!!

6. shhh, don't bother the MSM
don't you know that there was a new search warrant served in that case about the missing alabama student, Natalie H? Or even more important, they are making Annie's movie and the custody hearings continue and that kooky, wild haired producer's trial for the murder of the star is underway. :eyes:

impeachment? pshaw, go away, you bother me kid, the adults know what is important. :grr:

11. Our picture was taken right across the street from our local NBC affiliate
And unless they watched through binoculars from their windows, they were not there. And they had even responded to our media release and said they would come.




Where was that beach picture taken? It is awesome!!

21. Edit: I see it's a hit piece. And contrary to the implication
Edited on Mon Apr-30-07 10:16 AM by sfexpat2000
that "you don't see things like this in Lawrence" there were as many actions in red states as in blue states.

Wow.
