I just e-mailed my Congressman and both Senators

[Jack Rabbit]

Senator:

I really think Mr. Buhs has had more than a fair chance to prove he was right in Iraq and he has blown it time and time agian.

It's time to take away his toys. Please end this war. Please vote against any funding for an escalation and cut off funding for any further Mesopotamian misadventures beyond this fiscal year.

I would also urge that should the House of Representatives pass articles of impeachment against Mr. Bush and Mr. Cheney, who both richly deserve to be removed from office for manipulating intelligence and misrepresnting facts about Iraq prior to the invasion, that you consider such action favorably.

Thank you.


The letter to the Congressman urged voting articles of impeachment on the above charges.

1. Thanks for using "ESCALATION" instead of the RW talking point of ...

(GAK) "surge".

It's important to use the right term. Ya done good! :thumbsup:

Let us know if/when you get a reply!

[Jack Rabbit]

2. I'm sure I'll get form letters as replies

At least from the Senators. I understand they can't give the volume of mail they recieve persoanl attention.

That will suit me fine in this case. We should be flooding them with mail. Right now.

5. We all need to do this (amongst many other things). Here's mine:

Mr. Casey,

I am writing to you to express my sincere disapproval of the President's plan to escalate hostilities in Iraq. It seems as if we are not only headed toward a never-ending war in Iraq, but now will be moving into Iran and Syria as well. Please Sir, I and others are counting on you to speak up and strongly oppose this so-called new way forward. This President claims we are fighting a war on terror, however he is belligerently ignoring the root causes of terrorism and anti-American sentiment in the Middle East and indeed the rest of the world. This madness has got to stop. I believe we need to cut off funding for this war asap, start the articles of impeachment, "re-join" the UN and put together a sincere humanitarian mission to begin to heal this region. NO MORE dead Iraqi civilians and NO MORE dead American soldiers. The people demand it.

Thank you and good luck.
