Please Sign John Conyers Letter Part Two
I am taking the unusual step of repeating a post I did on May 27, 2005. I am doing this due to the importance of the issue.
The following is a message I just received from Rep. John Conyers Jr. (D-MI). I would urge you to please read it in its' entirety, and then click on the link at the bottom and sign his letter to President Bush:As many of you are aware, a classified memo was recently disclosed in Great Britain that I believe has serious ramifications for the integrity of the United States Government. Dubbed the "Downing Street Memo," but actually comprising the minutes of a meeting of Prime Minister Tony Blair and other top British government officials, the memo casts serious doubt on many of the contentions of the Bush Administration in the lead up to the Iraq war. With over 1,600 U.S. servicemen and servicewomen killed in Iraq, the deaths of hundreds of thousands of Iraqis, and over $200 billion in taxpayer funds going to this war effort, we cannot afford to stand by any longer. Along with 88 of my colleagues, I wrote to the President requesting answers about this grave matter. Thus far, our search for the truth has been stonewalled and I need your help. I believe the American people deserve answers about this matter and should demand directly that the President tell the truth about the memo. To that end, I am asking you to sign on to a letter to the President requesting he answer the questions posed to him by 89 Members of Congress. I will personally insure that this letter is delivered to the White House. You can read the letter here and sign on to it below. You and I know the White House is just hoping that this matter will fade away, but in a few short weeks, with our steadfastness, the memo has found its way into leading newspapers and White House press briefings. With your help, we can hold this Administration accountable. Please pass on this important letter to your friends and colleagues, and ask them to sign as well. Thank you for your help and support. John Conyers, Jr.You can read and sign the Conyers letter HERE. It is being reported on Air America (the Randi Rhodes show), that there are now upwards of 100,000 signature that have been received at Rep. Conyers website. Let's not stop there. Even tho 100,000 is an unprecedented number, let's go higher. Why not shoot for 500,000. Then let the mainstream media and the Republican controlled congress ignore our voices. |
