Dear Congressman

In response to my January 11 post, George II and George III, Salt Lake City Mayor Rocky Anderson alerted me to the following story:

Rocky Anderson calls for Bush impeachment*

This is, of course, brilliant.

But it's not enough to cheer from behind a computer screen. Contact your congressman, refer her to Article I, Sections 2 and 8 of the United States Constitution and implore her to prevent the deployment of 21,500 additional troops to Iraq.

As of yet, congress has failed to exercise any constitutional leverage--and they have quite a bit. (Like the Declaration of Independence, the Constitution is a pretty sharp document.)

We have a responsibility to make sure our representatives accurately represent us. Get your asses in gear!


Here is how you contact your congressman:

1. Determine who your representative is. (If you don't know, slap yourself on the wrist, and then click here.)

2. But let's not mess around on the Capital's website. For detailed contact information (including phone, fax, and e-mail) click here.
