Impeachment in Colorado

Colorado impeach Coalition www.ImpeachCO.com

Back in January 2007, when we started pressuring our Colorado US Congressmen/women to support Impeachment we had 2 different local impeachment groups and one World Cant Wait Chapter, all with common members and with websites all hosted on one webserver and maintained by one person. The 3 groups were ImpeachmentByThePeople.info , ColoradoChapter-WorldCant Wait.info and WeeklyVigilsToImpeach.us. We also had another url www.j3l.us that we used on signs only.

Because the person who did most of the organizing owned the server, and maintained all three website was getting buried in work we decided to combine all three websites and efforts. The result is The Colorado Impeach Coalition at ImpeachCO.com
We have come to the conclusion that as useful as rallys, vigils and protests are (and should be continued) the Next Step is getting the help of volunteers all across Colorado to distribute flyers and doorhangers directly to individuals and homes in Colorado. This allows all impeachment activists everywhere a method of contact that is affordable, visible, and that can be modified to fit the needs of any situation.

Why are we going this direction: Because we believe that just as "all politics is local" that "all real power to impeach" is also local. The Democrats whom we worked so hard to give the majority control of Congress to in Nov. 2006, now are ignoring the will of the people on protecting the Constitution and separation of powers by Impeachment.

We realized that to get around this barrier we have to go directly to those that put the Congressmen in office, the voters in their Congressional Districts. We need to get between the Congressmen and their support base of voters. We had to find a way to do this that is affordable, as we do not have the financial base of donations here in Colorado that some other state or large metropolitan area groups have.

We are now in the process of updating our website to facilitate easier access to these downloadable flyers.

We hope that activists across Colorado will assist us by downloading our Impeach Flyers, make copies and place them under windshield wipers on vehicles in their hometowns. This effort we believe will expand rapidly as new activists join us and offer to assist in this endeavor. They do not need to donate money to us or actually meet with us. Individuals or groups may do this project entirely on their own with no contact with us. If you would like us to tell your fellow activists that you are doing this please let us know and we'll put it on the website.

We also have contact information for voters to use to call, email and fax their US Congressman/woman and the House Judiciary Committee to urge them to support Impeachment and to get Rep. Kucinich's Impeachment Resolution out on the floor of the House for debate.

Our group offers publicity for all impeachment events, groups, and efforts in Colorado via our website and email lists. We try not to be critical or judgmental of other's Impeachment efforts. We all see Impeachment a little differently so we have tried to take everyones Impeachment efforts at face value and promote them equally.

If 50 new Impeachment groups spring up across Colorado we will welcome it and cooperate with them all. If a new group should materialize that is more successful in promoting impeachment than our group we will welcome it and cooperate with it.

Our goal is getting more Coloradoans to stand up for the Constitution and the separation of powers before it is too late. If the Democrats allow Bush's increased powers to become permanent, the Constitution and separation of powers will be seriously weakened and the Constitutional guarantee of freedom for our grandchildren will be in danger. Thank you all for your support.
