DSM is getting out there: 3 LTEs to same paper, same day (6/22)
What will Americans do about the Downing Street memo?
St. Petersburg Times
Letters to the Editor
June 22, 2005


From the first:

In other words, the invasion of Iraq (which the United Nations called "illegal"), with its 1,700 dead U.S. soldiers and 100,000-plus dead Iraqis, and its $300-billion price tag, was based on fabrications and plain old-fashioned lies.

and

What will Americans do? Yawn and click the channel to watch the next American Idol? Or will we turn up the heat?

From the second:

Please ask yourselves whether each item you are reporting on is important enough to take up space that should be devoted to this question.

From the third:

Years from now when our children and their children ask us what we did when we discovered that all the killing, maiming and destruction done in our names was based on faulty information, what will we say?

1. Gotta Love the St. Pete Times
The DSM didn't make the front page, but it did make the second, with a picture of Conyers at the White House. So glad I switched from the Republican rag Tampa Tribune to the Times!
