my latest LTTE-in my fundie,freeper paper..did I go too far?
Our president says he never meant "stay the course"-even though this has been a consistent component of his,and his cohorts',rhetoric.Almost three thousand soldiers are dead,while the Republican Party tries to backtrack and deny.Twenty thousand soldiers are wounded and maimed,missing limbs,horribly burned,and scarred in their souls-while Republicans now say they are looking at a timeline-the same thing they crucified John Murtha over.It is election time,and the Republicans are paying lip service to the disgruntled masses.Too late,Republicans-your lying,amoral ways betray the Christianity you so vehemently profess to practice.The number of dead,injured soldiers betray your "desire" for peace and love among men.The TRUE numbers of poor,homeless,and struggling people in America betray your "desire" to help the poor.The sheer numbers of sick,uninsured people in this country-with our emergency rooms bursting at the seams,betray your "desire" to help the sick.You have betrayed your Christian base,Republicans,and now only cater to the super wealthy,who have also sold their souls for the almighty dollar.I hope the Democrats conquer the House and Senate this November,and investigate every one of these elected officials who have profited from this insane,immoral war.It is early voting time.Let these "servants of the people" be accountable for their crimes.

3. lol..I got an email from joe Barton yesterday-
I wanted to drop you a note to let you know that today is the first day of early voting all over Texas.

This election, like no other, is going to be about which side has the energy and enthusiasm to get their vote to the polls.

Whichever side does that will control not only the U.S. Congress but also the direction America goes on issues like taxes, national security and illegal immigration.

I urge you to go out and vote early and make the Democrats have to play catch up from here on out!

If you need help finding your closest early voting location, press your county's link below. You can vote at ANY early voting location in your county as long as early voting goes on.

See you at the polls!



I hope he reads my letter.

4. Let us know about the inevitable threats!
A letter that good will no doubt lead to you receiving threatening letters and phone calls. :)

9. No, you didn't go too far...
it never ceases to amaze me when Republicans get "offended" by blunt remarks - heck we tried to be diplomatic and debate nicely for six years while they spewed venom. You wrote an excellent letter! As someone else said, let us know if you receive death threats!!
