Sick of the direction our country is headed? Oh, you don't KNOW where our country is headed? Let me put it simply: It's headed straight for the shitter. Today, Democratic Senator and Leader of the Democratic Party, Harry Reid of Nevada took evasive action by calling the Senate into a closed session, hopefully forcing the Republicans to continue the much needed investigation into the lies that Bush used to start the war in Iraq. WMD's? Nope. Nuclear & chemical weapons? Nada. Ties to Al Qaeda and 9/11? Not even close. Yet these, and many more lies, were used to generate support of this hideous war. Please...if you have any interest or concern at all...write your senators. Use your voice. Today I sent an email to Mr. Reid applauding his efforts. Shoot him a line if you have a moment: http://reid.senate.gov/email_form.cfm


Dear Mr. Reid,

I am not a resident of Nevada, nor have I ever had the pleasure of visiting your state. I am a resident of the state of Florida and a proud citizen of this great country of ours. And as an American, I want to sincerely and emphatically applaud your efforts in forcing the Senate into a closed session as the Democratic Party continues to push toward the much needed investigation of the Bush administrations handling of the prewar intelligence on Iraq.

This is the first time I have written a member of the government on any level. And I do so today as a tremendously concerned and increasingly perturbed citizen of the United States of America. Day after day our great nation falls further and further into an abyss of disarray, deceit, and global abomination. Never have I been so deeply concerned for the state and future of our country.

As you and the Democrats continue to push for accountability for the heinous actions of our so-called "president", I encourage you - as do tens of millions of Americans - to continue your aggressive plight for justice and resolve. And your action in calling the Senate into a closed session is just the kind of aggressive action we need.

We are unfortunately in one of the most pivotal moments in the recent history of our country. The Republicans have dug us into a deep hole, and it's depth increases exponentially with each passing day, with each blatant lie, and with each deceptive cover-up. Keep fighting the good fight. Please don't back down. The fate of our country and its citizens depends on it. We need you...all of us. Thank you.

Sincerely,

Kris Boyce
