I dedicated this day to Congressman Dennis Kucinich and the 35 Articles of Impeachment he introduced onto the House Floor Monday June 9. I was set to interview Kucinich but he got called to vote on his his articles of impeachment to send them to the House Judiciary Committee. I intend to speak with him soon so stay tuned. I played audio from the 4.5 hours K spoke on the house floor in which he enumerated, in excruciating detail, Bush's High Crimes and Misdemeanors and mixed it up with some of my favorite music from some of my favorite artists including Igor Stavinsky, John Coltrane, Head-Roc, Murali Coryell, Sarah Perrotta, David Kraii and the Saddle Tramps, Paco De Lucia, and others.

Listen to Articles of Impeachment and Music >>

Listen to Interview with David Swanson >>

David Swanson, cofounder of After Downing Street and DC Pres of Democrats.com joined me to discuss Kucinich's Articles of Impeachment, the necessity for impeachment, and what each and every US citizen could/should be doing to see that Bush be held accountable to the rule of law.

Listen to closing notes and tunes >>

Additionally, at some point during the program, I did a reading of one of my own poems as the poetic service announcement. Here it is:

I see orgasm written
All over your face as
You dine on my bullets
of Pure ethnocentric delight

Your blood burns
Your bones shatter
As you are liberated
from the hell you were born into
At taxpayers expense

Your expression crosses the threshold of despair
As your children
Are ripped to pieces
Burnt flesh scattered
On my upside down flag
the magic carpet-bomber
Carrying youth to do the bidding
To slaughter and be slaughtered
An Eye for an eye
Do unto others

I hear your wretched women wailing
In my dreams of despair
Children bursting in air
gave proof through the night
that our flag was still there

And I roast you
Little Infant
At the touch of a button
And cover you with the fine
dust of your progenitors
And the larger chunks of
edifice that defined you
on this one time map of
human existence amidst this
hell of a garden of eden
cooked to perfection
like a young suckling pig
or a rubber turkey
flambaisted
