Michael Moore Reports for Duty - "An Open Letter to the U.S. Senate"
Just One Senator... An Open Letter to the U.S. Senate from Michael Moore
< http://www.michaelmoore.com/>

"I have a favor to ask of you. Something isn't right with the vote from Ohio. Seems a lot of people didn't get to vote. And those who did, thousands of theirs weren't counted.

A very embarrassing moment during the last session of Congress occurred in the first week when none of you would allow the members of Congress who were black to have the floor to object to the Florida vote count. Remember that? You thought no one would ever notice, didn't you? You certainly lucked out that night when the networks decided not to show how you shut down every single member of the Congressional Black Caucus.

No such luck this year. Everyone now knows about that moment of shame. Thank you? You’re welcome.

But this Thursday, at 1:00pm, you will have a chance to redeem yourself.

Congressman Conyers and a dozen other members of Congress have some serious questions about how the Republican secretary of state in Ohio (who was also the state’s co-chair of Bush’s reelection campaign) conducted the election on November 2. The list of possible offenses of how voters were denied access to the polls and how over a hundred thousand of their votes have yet to be counted is more than worthy of your consideration. It may not change the outcome, but you have a supreme responsibility to make sure that EVERY vote is counted. Who amongst you would disagree with that?

Very nice pic of Representative Conyers!

1. Does anyone know...
if he actually *sent* this letter to all the senators or if it's only posted on his site?

If he *hasn't*, shouldn't we be faxing it to their offices for him?

Suggestions?

Peace!

2. Michael Moore STILL doesn't get it! KERRY WON!!!
He doesn't have all of the information on fraud, in all of the states we've investigated, and I suggest we mass e-mail him, and link him up with it!

6. I'm sure he has like we all have.
People like Michael Moore understand this One Planet is our home and we are all sisters and brothers except, of course, the corporatists.
