Jim Blackburn on the Environment

A Spiritual Quest: Enough? Enough!
Tuesday, September 30
7:00 p.m.

With climate change promising massive ecological disruptions, pioneer environmental attorney Jim Blackburn will offer observations about living things, our connectedness to them and our need to take effective action soon. Fundamental to this discourse is the concept of ENOUGH, a theme that will be woven through the presentation. Blackburn will introduce the concept of CONNECTUALITY and its power to transform our thinking, perception and will to act. Is some form of environmental triage our destiny or can we find the will to take action to combine economic and ecologic visions and recover our lost spirituality? Blackburn’s presentation of “A Spiritual Quest” will address these issues and more.

Impeach Bush-Cheney Bumper Stickers-revised

Submitted by Bill Crosier on March 17, 2007 - 1:23am.

Get one (or many) of our highly-popular ""Support Our Troops - Impeach Bush-Cheney" bumper stickers and do your part to send a truly patriotic message, while getting more people thinking about the "I" word.

It seems clear that most elected officials and mainstream media are waiting for the public to initiate a demand to hold W accountable, so let's send the message!

Impeach Bumper Sticker image

Our bumper stickers are 3 x 10 inches, and may be removed and re-applied (a few times) for those times when you want to attend a Bush rally.  In addition, they are perfect for covering up scratches on your bumper or other places on your car, boat, plane, or military vehicle.  Perhaps you know of some troops in Iraq who might want some!

Submitted by Bill Crosier on February 10, 2007 - 12:00am.

Tired of attending protests where the only people who see you are your fellow protestors?

Want to let the average Houstonian know that there are others who also want the US and Israel to stop their invasions and occupations in the Middle East, and who want the Liar-in-Chief and his Vice President of Torture to be impeached?

Here's and easy and fun way for you and your signs to be seen by THOUSANDS of people during a weekday rush hour.  Join us as we hold up large signs and banners on one of the bridges over the Southwest Freeway and Gulf Freeway.  Short Videos   Photos   Photos on Indymedia   Houston Chronicle article

Impeach Bush & Cheney T-Shirts

Submitted by Bill Crosier on September 24, 2006 - 2:23pm.

Want to wear a shirt that sends a powerful message for regime change here at home?
We have two shirts that we designed, and which we hope will help to get the general public thinking more about why we need to get the criminals out of the White House. These shirts are ones that we hope you'll want to wear when you go shopping, to restaurants, to neighborhood and cultural events, and other places -- not just to political gatherings.  You'll be impressed with how many smiles, thumbs up, and other positive responses that you get.
