Well bloggers, here is one: A new campaign is heating up to press for an independent investigation of the Bush administration’s possible falsification of data and intelligence about Iraq, in justification of the war.
Moveon.org is running a cyber campaign to press for investigations. Here is part of the mailing.
Three weeks ago, MoveOn launched a petition asking Congress to create an independent commission to investigate whether the Bush Administration manipulated and distorted evidence to take the country to war in Iraq. Over 190,000 of us joined the effort. Now Congress is literally taking up our call: Rep. Henry Waxman (D-CA) has written a bill that would create just such a commission, and it’s already co-sponsored by a wide array of moderate Democrats — including many who voted for the war.
This commission can really happen — and the truth about the Bush Administration’s manipulation of evidence can really come out — but we’ll need your help. We’re launching a drive to get every member of Congress to personally pledge to support and vote for the independent commission. Please take a moment to ask Congressman Capuano to pledge today at:

If you sign right now, your comment may be among those read on the House floor by some of the Representatives pushing this resolution. Reps. Henry Waxman (D-CA), Barbara Lee (D-CA), George Miller (D-CA), Sherrod Brown (D-OH), Lloyd Doggett (D-TX), Rosa DeLauro (D-CT), and a number of others are looking forward to hearing what you have to say and reading some of the messages into the Congressional Record on the House floor.
