140. My question is
Have you written to your congressman and your senators? We all need to email them and let them know what we want them to do on this issue. The more they hear from us the better.

This is what I sent on Tuesday Morning....

Congressman,
After listening to parts of Petraus/Crocker report over these last few days, I am more convinced that no end is in sight for our brave young men and women deployed in this ill-conceived war based upon lies and half truths. I urge You and your colleagues to refuse to continue to fund operations in Iraq and thereby force the Administration to bring the troops home. Do not pass legislation with a time table or benchmarks, do not pass stop gap measures requiring additional reports, do not pass legislation that allegedly "supports the troops". Simply send NO more money.
There is no question of failure in Iraq. We have failed and that failure started on the day the Bush White House chose to lie to the American people and their elected representatives in order to start a war based upon whole cloth. Please put an end to this madness.

Thank You Very Much,
Sincerely,
