Nader’s call for Bush resignation to be broadcast on C-SPAN tonight

Independent/Independent Party candidate Ralph Nader appeared outside the White House earlier today to call for the resignation of President Bush and Vice President Cheney. According to ABC news’s Political Radar blog:

Nader said the President has, “dishonored the White House and brought a pattern of waste.”

“A wasteful defense is a weak defense and a weak defense, inspires waste,” Nader said.

Surrounded by a handful of supporters, holding signs which read “From Katrina to Iraq, Colossal Failure,” and “Resign Bush-Cheney, Like Nixon-Agnew,” Nader charged that the President and Vice President are currently committing five impeachable offenses, on a daily basis, including: criminal use of offense against Iraq; condoned and approved systematic torture; arresting thousands of Americans — denying them habeas corpus and violating attorney/client privilege; signing 800 signing statements, precluding the president from actually having to follow the laws he signs; and systematic spying on Americans without judicial approval.

Nader’s website notes that his statement will be broadcast on C-Span tonight at about 6:40 PM EST, or roughly 15 minutes from the publication of this post.

    I’ll be blogging during them, probably. Might also do some special coverage on here. 🙂

    Not sure if we can embed the C-SPAN feed on here… but you can stream it on their website. Give that a try maybe.

    Yours works? My C-Span must be dead. Damnit, Austin, will you be posting the debates on here?

    Watching it now. Ralph seems a little bit sleepy.

    It’s not how many ballots you’re on, it’s which ballots you’re on that matters 😉

    Is Nader going to be on enough ballots to matter?

    Is C-Span working for any of you? All I see is black…
