Sent this to my representatives. I hope you all will write to yours too and let them know what you think. Will it help? Who knows. Can it hurt? No.
I support revoking the authorization for war in Iraq. The war was based on
lies and greed, and now it's just become a killing field for our men.
McCain, Kyl and Flake, all of you are just as responsible for every dead
body that comes home as your leader is, and we, the American people, will
hold you to that responsibility.
Your leader bush has become delusional and wrapped in a little bubble of
ego. The first 5 years of his term he vetoed one bill, now he's vetoing
them all before they even get to him, whether about the war, stem cell
research, or importing drugs. He's a menace to this country as are all of
you who follow him in the name of "party unity".
Call it cut and run, call it anything you like but stop allowing these
morons with bombs on their backs to kill our sons, daughters, brothers,
sisters, parents and friends. You know in your hearts that you will never
stop what goes on over there, it's not "them against us", it's "them
against them" with us just being a minor barricade between them to be
killed as we would kill a bug.
If there was a chance of winning, if anyone in your little elite group
could even define "winning" then we might stand a chance. But it's become
"bush's war", a personal thing to him, and death be damned, he's going to
veto anything except for a blank check.
Don't follow him down his path of destruction. For once, listen to those
who elected you, or we'll elect representatives who really represent.

I wonder if the letters we write our Representatives are even read by them... maybe their office reps or someone reads them.
Nothing is ever done unless a pile of letters about the same thing is put in their face.
We fight a war over there in order to NOT fight a war over here. Until you have done a tour be careful of what you say.
And tell me, Porkrind, how is the war over there going to stop a thing? The terrorists arent necessarily Iraqis, they're nutcases from all over the middle east, and not even necessarily from there. It's not us against Iraq in the war on terror, it's us against a bunch of winguts with some weird "ideology".So even if we win, whatever that might be, We could get bombed by 3 Iranians, two Afghans, and 5 Saudis , and possibly a few Iraqis that have lived here for the last 7 years, Hows the war going to stop that?
I must have written 20 or 30 times, and I've gotten back a total of two form letter responses from Flake, nothing at all from Kyl and McCain. So you're probably right, we all go into some spam filter
Some read and some don't. I got one back from a Republican saying that the issue I was writing about will come back up next year, so it depends on the Congressperson.
Amen, Bob...amen! And aren't the soldiers in Iraq over there fighting so you DON'T have to be be careful of what you say HERE? C'mon, porkrind....can you say IRONIC?
