Wikipedia has a lengthy article on the movement to impeach Bush. This provides an excellent background and provides evidence to the extent of the movement's support. The crimes of the Bush regime are starting to catch up with them.
San Francisco's Board of Supervisors passed an impeachment resolution a couple of months ago. A resolution has been proposed for the California Legislature. Similar proposals are on the table for Illinois and Vermont.
Several Vermont towns have passed Impeachment Resolutions. The most interesting part of this is that they were passed in town meetings, showing that considered, direct democracy often works better than representative democracy.
The Green Party of the US has taken a particularly thoughtful approach, calling for the impeachment of both Bush and Cheney. Cheney is at least as guilty of Bush, and having him follow Bush in the White House would solve nothing.
Veterans for Peace's early support for impeachment played a vital role, and they have some excellent arguments for impeachment. (PDF)
There now are pro-impeachment House and Senate Candidates. Here are some examples:
Jean Hay Bright - Maine Senate
Jeeni Criscenzo - CA-49
Chris Owens - NY-11
Tony Trupiano - MI-11
The impeachment movement has an enormous online component.
ImpeachPac.org is the most comprehensive. It is worth going through the site for all the resources.
AfterDowningStreet.org is hosting Public Service Announcements for impeachment and have instructions people can use to try to get them on the radio. Some of the people making the announcements include Cindy Sheehan, Ed Asner, Howard Zinn, and Noam Chomsky.
www.impeachbush.org was one of the first impeachment sites. As often is the case, the left takes the lead on issues that the rest of the country is not ready to acknowledge yet.
Another impeachment Web Site
There's an impeachment blog.
Michael Moore is hosting impeachment resolution language on his web site for states, city councils, and political party committees.
There also are online impeachment petitions.
