The "I" Word - Letter to Chris Matthews (MSNBC Hardball Host)

I sent this letter to Chris Matthews at Christmas...I received no reply from him or any of his staff.. Thank God for patriots like Stephen Colbert, who recently publically criticized the Washington Press Corps, cowardly "journalists" who are too afraid to loose their cush jobs to actually report news...

Dear Mr. Matthews,
There have been rumblings about impeaching George Bush for some time, now. First it was because he ignored CIA, UN, and Pentagon intelligence sources, and chose anyway to invade Iraq, citing "imminent danger". Then it was discovered in the Downing Street Memo that he knew there was no "imminent danger", but was following the blueprint laid out by the Project for the New American Century (published in the late 90's) to invade the Middle East in order to maintain American global domination. Now we find out that the Bush Administration has been using our tax dollars to spy on such "subversive" groups as the Quakers.
Enough.
Unfortunately, MSNBC hasn't done much in the way of discussing impeachment. I understand that because you are an employee of a corporate conglomerate which enjoys tax benefits from this government, and because you are a member of the small percentage of high earners who don't have to pay much tax, you perhaps are discouraged from criticising this administration in any way, shape or form. It is for this reason that I am appealing to your journalistic sense, to report the facts. The Downing Street memo wasn't reported. I have not seen any Quakers being interviewed.
Rep. John Conyers has introduced a bill investigating grounds for impeachment, and several members of the House have signed on. This news needs to be covered. I hope you are willing to step up to the plate.

Sincerely, Joy Whelan
