Dear Nancy Pelosi: (my email to her)

[orleans]

CUT OFF THE FUNDING FOR MORE TROOPS.

COME OUT AND SAY IT. SAY YOU'RE PUTTING A FREEZE ON TROOP LEVELS BY NOT FUNDING ANY MORE THAN THE NUMBER OF TROOPS THAT WERE THERE AT THE BEGINNING OF THE YEAR.

COME OUT AND SAY THAT. THE LEFT NEEDS TO HEAR IT BECAUSE THE LEFT IS BLOGGING ABOUT YOU NOT DOING WHAT YOU CAN TO PUT AN END TO THE SURGE--AND THE IRAQ WAR.

even hillary has called for a troop cap matching the numbers that were there at the start of the year.

70% of americans are against this war. even the majority of republicans don't want a surge. DO SOMETHING WHILE YOU STILL HAVE THE TIME TO STOP MORE PEOPLE FROM DYING.

condi rice lied to the senate committee last week when she said there were no estimates on causalities. the pentagon released an estimated causality report for this "augmentation" and it is 3,000 more dead troops within a YEAR and a total of 10,000 dead by the end of 2008.

DON'T LET THIS HAPPEN! CUT OFF ADDITIONAL FUNDING NOW!

1. I sent her an e-mail about it, too. I received this back:

Thank you for contacting my office.

Congressional courtesy prevents me from replying to emails if I cannot
determine that you are a constituent of mine.

If you are not a resident of Califoria's 8th Congressional District and
are contacting me in regard to my role as Speaker, please email me at
[e-mail].

If you are a resident of the 8th District of California, please contact my
office in Washington, DC at [phone] to be added to our database.

3. Actually, the Speaker represents those who elected her

She was elected by members of the House. If you want to change the Speaker's mind, you need to get the Representatives who elected her to do it.
