Guest guest Posted April 12, 2005 Report Share Posted April 12, 2005 Remember when the democratic presidential candidate referred to the cost of the Iraq war as 200 billion and they called him such a liar and exaggerator? Well guess what, we are there already and now they want ANOTHER 83 billion for corrupt no-bid contractors. There was an interesting development today as Iraq's new president, the Kurdish Jalal Talabani, suggested that they might need the protection of U.S. and other allied forces for as long as two years. Of course, the key word here is OTHER. We have been playing unilateral cowboy for the last two years when we should have been working with the rest of world in building real stability in Iraq. And we are moving yet further in the wrong direction with the nomination of John Bolton as U.N. Ambassador with his carpetbomb approach to diplomacy. Meanwhile the rest of the world deserts our so-called coalition as quietly as possible. At this critical time we can make a real difference by demanding that Bolton be rejected, and by demanding that the Senate require real international cooperation before we melt down another dime in Iraq. http://www.usalone.com/warbucks.htm http://www.usalone.com/bolton.htm Especially if you live in Rhode Island, please make your voice heard on the Bolton question as Republican Chafee has already expressed strong reservations and the White House is leaning on him as hard as they can. But both of these questions must come before the full Senate so it is important for each and every one of us to speak out NOW for we are the people. And please, if you have not already submitted your objections to the bankruptcy bill in the house, there is still time as that debate was mercifully delayed to this coming week. Whether you are outraged by its endorsement of usurous interest rates of over 30 percent, or its abandonment of our medical cost victims, our elderly on subsistance and our overdeployed military, we MUST take a strong stand on this to build a platform for 2006. With enough of your support we might even win this one now. http://www.usalone.com/bankruptcy.htm This is battle we can definitely win THIS WEEK if we all just speak out in the interests of we the people. Democrats.com, PDA, MoveOn and many others have issued action appeals stop fight this horrific bill.
