Thank God for patriots like Pete Stark. Let him know he got it exactly correct! (Contact information at the bottom.)

George Bush plans for today’s children to go to Iraq and get their heads blown off when they turn 18. Only, it won’t be his children, his family, his cronies, or his war-profiteering patrons. It will be the children he is denying health care to — if they can manage to grow to age 18 healthy enough to die in Iraq!

Mr. Stark:
 
Thank you for standing up to George Bush and the Republican boot-lickers in the House and Senate. You told the truth -- which they can't stand to hear -- so they attack you and use the attacks as a distraction from their corrupt, hateful, and greedy agenda. After what George Bush has done to our country, it mystifies me that anyone could think Georg Bush is a person of goodwill or even a decent human-being.
 
I am sick and tired of Democrats in the House and Senate listening to Republicans tell the most vicious lies about Democrats and then rising to speak and referring to the Republicans that just trashed them as "My friends on the other side of the aisle."
 
Stick to your guns! Until the Republicans understand that we will fight fire with fire, they will continue to get the upper hand with their big-lie propaganda techniques.
 
I have only one criticism.
 
When Republicans whine and complain or the chair says, “It is against House rules to refer to the President in a personal manner,” the proper response is:

“Innocent people are dying in Iraq and you’re quoting the rules of the House to me?

"Your priorities are totally wrong. All of the rules of the House are not worth one more wasted life in Iraq, one more American soldier who comes home missing a limb, one more dead Iraqi.

"Instead of worrying about the damned rules, how about worrying about the lives lost and decimated because you continue to follow George Bush down a rat hole instead of stand with the American people.

Keep up the good work, Mr. Stark. We are proud of you.
