Congress, my conscience is against killing human beings
Edited on Wed Nov-04-09 10:17 AM by Fresh_Start
if you can cater to peoples consciences who are worried about embryos, you can worry about people like me who are concerned about killing the born.

I shouldn't have to pay for wars today or in the future.
I shouldn't have to pay for weapon development.
I shouldn't have to pay foreign aid to countries that kill civilians

When do you start listening to my conscience?

2. How about dismantling corporate personhood?
Even a collective of one persons will never stand a chance against them.

3. We're already more than half the public
A CNN/Opinion Research Corp. survey released Tuesday morning indicates that 39 percent of Americans favor the war in Afghanistan, with 58 percent opposed to the mission. http://www.cnn.com/2009/POLITICS/09/15/afghan.war.poll/...
