Dear Ms. Pelosi

Dear Rep. Pelosi,

I am writing to implore you to impeach.

With his latest executive order, Bush has gone too far. Again. You are in a position where you can stop him. The only way I can stop him is to implore you and the other representatives to do so. In doing nothing, you are letting down not only every of us who worked so hard to elect democrats last November, but the entire American people.

Moves like this place us closer than ever to becoming a dictatorship. The time has come to impeach, before it's too late and you no longer have the option because Congress has been dissolved by executive order. Though the thought seems far-fetched, much of what Bush has done over the past seven years has been beyond my wildest dystopian nightmares, and I no longer doubt any possibility. In fact, with the recent systematic dismantling of checks and balances, it merely seems inevitable.

Ms. Pelosi, I am not a conspiracy theorist. I'm an average citizen: a mother, a taxpayer, a homeowner, a person who is trying to make a nice life for future generations. That cannot occur unless you impeach Bush AND Cheney AND Gonzales, right away. In swearing to uphold the constitution, you owe us nothing less. I care little for excuses, or for reasons why it would endanger anyone's political career. The time for that has passed. You must decide whose side you are on. I truly hope you side with the American people.

Yours Truly,
Maya Dexter
