A Message from Wes Clark
A Message from Wes Clark
September 15, 2004

Dear Loyal Supporter,

As you know, we have now lost over 1,000 American lives in the war in Iraq. We are spending hundreds of billions of dollars there. George Bush still does not have a plan for peace and victory, and there is no end in sight.

What can you and I do about it? Together we can make our voices heard by working for change here at home that will bring us peace, security, and respect. We need to keep fighting for John Kerry, John Edwards, and other good Democrats who are standing up for what we believe in.

Gert and I have been on the campaign trail for the Kerry/Edwards ticket and other key candidates across the country. To keep up these efforts, I need your help.

Help me fight for our values and priorities -- support WesPAC today!

George Bush likes to claim he is a strong leader, one who is forceful in his convictions. But his record of flip-flops in the war on terror suggest otherwise. George Bush opposed the authorization of the 9/11 Commission only to change his mind under pressure from the families of the victims. He opposed the creation of the Department of Homeland Security, then supported it when public pressure forced his hand.

And the biggest flip-flop of all? George Bush promised to make the war on terror his highest priority, but his administration lost focus on Al Qaeda and Osama bin Laden. Instead they pursued an elective war in Iraq. And now George Bush no longer believes we can win the war on terror.

This is not leadership. George Bush has deceived the American people, and the American people deserve to know the facts.

Help me set the record straight on the Bush-Cheney record of failure -- donate to WesPAC today!

We need to work harder than ever to get our message out. And over the next 48 days, I'm going to do my part, barnstorming across America to tell the voters that we can and must do better. This past Sunday, I spent the day in Ohio for John Kerry and John Edwards. And yesterday in Wisconsin, I crisscrossed the state to tell the truth about the continued foreign policy and national security failures of this Administration.

Your help is critical -- you give us the resources we need to get out and work hard for all the Democrats who are standing up to the Bush-Cheney attacks, including John Kerry, John Edwards, Tom Daschle, Martin Frost, Patty Murray, Tony Knowles, and plenty more.

This election is just too critical for us to stay on the sidelines. So whatever you can do, whatever you can give -- please support WesPAC today!

With great appreciation,
Wes Clark

1. I just donated.
Wes has been on the road constantly saying what needs to be said...as only he can say it. He has the knowledge for sure...and now he can just lay it out. Those of you who can...support his road trips.

We need his voice out there in the wilderness.
