CALLING YOUR REPRESENTATIVES !
I just called my representatives in Washington and told them how I wanted them to vote on this 87 Billion dollar request.

I would like to encourage you to add a request that they pursue a public accounting of all the monies that are forthcoming from our "coalition allies" to support this "great cause".

I think it would be very interesting for the American people to know how empty this coalition really is.

1. I just called Senators Cantwell and Murray to tell them
to vote 'No' on any appropriations bill that will send more money swirling down the Iraqi spout. Democracy in action.

2. Just called Tauscher , Boxer , and Feinstein
Told to not increase bush's inheritance any further .
Told them bush doesn't care about us , he doesn't care that
he is the most hated president in history , he's going to be
laughing all the way to the bank when he's kicked out of office .

Use caution , I believe we need to sieze both the Carlyle
group and Halliburtons assets and they should pay for it and
are traitors to this nation .

6. Probably, but the blood is in the water and the sharks
are beginning to feed.

Republicans who hope to be re-elected will swim away from the wounded.

8. I emailed Dayton, Coleman and Ramstad
last night (though I originally thought I'd skip the last two - total waste of time).

I suggested to Dayton that he add an amendment to any bill authorizing the 87 billion that would repeal the tax cuts.

7. Used Congress.org and emailed my three plus Bush
Said that as long as Halliburton and Dyncorp have their greedy mitts on our tax money, they should not support spending any more money on Iraq. Plus, I want an accounting of money spent so far before agreeing to opening our wallets again.
