This Thursday we must stand up and tell George Bush, "No!" DFA ACTION >>>
What part of "NO" is hard to understand? In the last election, America sent a clear message to President Bush to change our course in Iraq, but all he wants to do is step on the gas.

On Wednesday, President Bush will announce his new way forward and it will sound a lot like "stay the course." Twenty thousand more troops and another set of unrealistic benchmarks used as talking points is more of the same. Even America's new commander in Iraq, Lieutenant General Raymond Odierno, says Bush's plan will take "two to three years" to put us on the right track.

This Thursday we must stand up and tell George Bush, "No!" Democracy for America is partnering with True Majority Action and several other progressive organizations to purge the surge. Will you help by setting up an event in your neighborhood?

Some of the events that have already been set up are candle-light vigils honoring the fallen. Others are honk and wave mini-rallies at busy intersections or public spaces. Either way, these events work great for as few as three people or as many as five hundred. What is most important is that these events happen on Thursday night just 24 hours after the President's speech. Congress and the media need to see a quick response and a clear message that America says no more troops for Iraq.

Please set up your event now:

Thank you for everything you do,

Charles Chamberlain
Field Director

10. Bush's dillusional antic's have made him forget that he is employed by the American people...
This President needs badly to be reminded that he is supposed to work for us, not against us. We voted heavily against this illegal war and he thumbs his nose and instead escalates the war! Something is very wrong here Ms. Pelosi!!
