Iraq Vote Pledge
Submitted by davidswanson on Wed, 2007-05-23 03:34. Activism

Iraq Vote Pledge

"I pledge to vote against every Senator and Representative who approves funding to continue the disastrous Iraq War. We have already given far too much of our blood and treasure - and killed far too many Iraqis - for a war based on lies. We are now occupying a hostile nation divided by civil war for the benefit of military contractors and Big Oil.

"The only way to support our troops is to bring them home NOW, and no funds should be used for any other purpose. If Congress fails to bring our troops home, I will do everything I can - and urge everyone I know - to defeat pro-war Senators and Representatives, both in my party's primary elections and in the November general election."

US Theft of Iraq's Oil: On House Floor Wednesday Morning

WASHINGTON DC - WEDNESDAY, MAY 23, 2007 - At approximately 11:00 a.m. today, Congressman Dennis Kucinich will invoke a rarely used procedure to offer a privileged motion claiming one hour of time to speak on the floor of the House of Representatives about current legislative plans to privatize Iraq's oil. This will be the first time in Congress that there has been a full discussion of the covert efforts to accomplish privatization of Iraq's oil through the supplemental spending bill. As with all House sessions, this speech will be televised on C-Span.

2. I was either #9, 10, or 11. Here is my added personal message:

Not only will I VOTE against anyone who continues to fund this disaster, and urge everyone I know to do the same, but I will CONTRIBUTE to the campaign of the opponent of anyone who continues to funding the occupation. Peace. Now.
