The World Can't Wait - Drive Out the Bush Regime
Hey Folks,
Here are a few bare-bones bits of info from The World Can't Wait's website ( http://www.worldcantwait.net/ ). If you are unacquainted with "The World Can't Wait - Drive Out the Bush Regime!", this may seem complicated or confusing to you - as far as "how" and "what" - not "why." I'll try to write up something to help in that regard.

The Mission of World Can't Wait (from the website)
World Can't Wait is organizing people living in the United States to take responsibility to stop the whole disastrous course led by the Bush administration. We seek to create a political situation where the Bush administration's program is repudiated, where Bush himself is driven from office, and where the whole direction he has been taking U.S. society is reversed.
We seek to mobilize millions to express their outrage, to speak the truth, to act with urgency and form an organized political resistance. We welcome any individuals and groups who agree that the Bush Regime should be driven out, whatever their political party affiliation or lack thereof. We reach out to people who have been fooled by Bush, and to those who have been most seriously affected by the outrages inflicted by the Bush Regime.
We drew our inspiration from...The Not In Our Name Statement of Conscience which we encourage you to read ( http://www.nion.us/NSOC/NION2wsigninfo.htm ), add your name to, and distribute broadly.
Excerpts: "No election, whether fair or fraudulent, can legitimize criminal wars on foreign countries, torture, the wholesale violation of human rights, and the end of science and reason."
"It is our responsibility to stop the Bush regime from carrying out this disastrous course. We believe history will judge us sharply should we fail to act decisively."
BUSH: STEP DOWN And Take Your Program With You!
1. Jan. 31, on The Night of President Bush’s State of the Union Address:
Bring the Noise!
Drown Out Bush’s Lies!
In large cities and small towns all across the country, join in rallies one hour before Bush’s address as we make our determination to “Drive Out the Bush Regime” the political message of the day.
At 9:00 PM EST, just as Bush starts to speak, everywhere we will BRING THE NOISE. In a cacophony of sound, we will drown out his address with music: from drums to violins, from hip hop and classical; and with noise: banging pots and ringing church bells, sound car horns and lifting our voices.
2. DEMONSTRATE on SATURDAY, FEB. 4
(following the State of the Union)
Washington D.C.
The Saturday after the State of the Union address, massive numbers will protest at the seat of government. Prominent voices of conscience will help deliver the people’s verdict on Bush’s criminal regime with our demand: Bush Step Down And Take Your Program with You!
Four immediate objectives for late December:
1) Raise money to run the protest plans for the State of the Union and the Call for The World Can’t Wait – Drive Out the Bush Regime in major newspapers, as well as radio ads on Air America. [donate now]
2) Get students and professors prepared for when campus gets back in session to moblize the campuses for the State of the Union. [click here]
3) Saturate communities and schools with materials announcing this, and take out ads specifically calling for this State of the Union manifestation. Flier a movie on 12/25. High school students - spend your winter break selling t-shirts and posters from WCW to holiday shoppers. Contact the national office and local chapters for more info. [download flier]
4) Reach out to organized professional and social justice organizations and bring them solidly in this movement - librarians, neighborhood associations, religious institutions — getting not just endorsements but resolutions that BUSH STEP DOWN and taking action during the State of the Union.
