TO ALL DUERS! How about a call, e-mail or letter to Pete Stark? Someone FINALLY said what needed to
Edited on Fri Oct-19-07 11:13 AM by tom_paine
be said! And a long time ago, too.

The Emperor has no Clothes? Well, not only that, he is a lying Caligulan maniac, a giggling sociopath and it's quite obvious at least a quarter of the time he stands up and speaks publicly, the DubyaDubyaThree comment being the words of a pinball-eyed madman barely concealing it.

Having said what he said, which to my mind is still pretty tame compared to the truth of the matter, he will NOT apologize to Bushie "crocodile whiners"!

FINALLY! And all it took was a million or more dead innocents, 4,000 dead American Soldiers, 50,000 wounded soldiers, the dollar being worth less than the Loonie, etc etc. etc.

But SOMEONE FINALLY SAID IT!

So, DU, let's properly thank Representative Stark, who clearly is one of the few Dems we can count on, stepping so bravely in front of the frightened herd as he has.

Well, he's not going to get any support from Nancy "I hate my vagrant constituents" Pelosi, so WE have to support him!

4. Did it.
Pete spoke the truth watch F. 9-11 there is real footage of bush
laughing and joking before he went on air to announce the start
of this bloody war in Iraq. Bush also laughed and joked about
his "wounds" he got clearing juniper brush in front of amputees
at Walter Reed.

5. Kick for keeping this kicked.
I don't consider this kick shameless, though.

It's in a good cause.

C'mon DUers!

16. Snail mail is perhaps the best of all ways to contact him, actually.
I have read this in numerous different sources because a letter basically takes the most efort.

Emails can be deleted. Phone messages can be deleted or undelivered.

Snail mail catches their attention.

k&r

Bushbots were insulted? ha
As insulted as the families of the dead soldiers who know they carefully raised their child to be a good and loyal patriot, only to have that belief mocked and exploited for the profits of a ditatorial wanna-be like GWBush & his crime laden mofia 'family'.

Fuck em. Stark said what needed to be said..& on record.
Honors to Pete Stark.

13. His phone is busy, his local office voice mailbox is full. So folks must be calling!
I'll keep trying.

I particularly liked that he said the war was illegal. it's about time that was said a lot.

And it only took me two tries each, spaced 10 minutes apart.

24. I called and brought up this incident
and thanked him for saying what he said.


http://thinkprogress.org/2007/09/12/boehner-troop-deaths-in-iraq-are-a-small-price/


Boehner: Troop deaths in Iraq are ‘a small price.’In an interview on CNN today, Wolf Blitzer asked House Minority Leader John Boehner (R-OH) about “the Americans who are killed every month” in Iraq and “how much longer” the “military commitment is going to require?” “The investment that we’re making today will be a small price if we’re able to stop al Qaeda here,” replied Boehner. As Atrios notes, the “small price” Boehner refers to is “3774 dead US troops and counting.”
