Remember when the democratic presidential candidate referred to the cost of the
Iraq war as 200 billion and they called him such a liar and exaggerator? Well
guess what, we are there already and now they want ANOTHER 83 billion for
corrupt no-bid contractors. There was an interesting development today as
Iraq's new president, the Kurdish Jalal Talabani, suggested that they might need
the protection of U.S. and other allied forces for as long as two years.

Of course, the key word here is OTHER. We have been playing unilateral cowboy
for the last two years when we should have been working with the rest of world
in building real stability in Iraq. And we are moving yet further in the wrong
direction with the nomination of John Bolton as U.N. Ambassador with his
carpetbomb approach to diplomacy. Meanwhile the rest of the world deserts our
so-called coalition as quietly as possible. At this critical time we can make a
real difference by demanding that Bolton be rejected, and by demanding that the
Senate require real international cooperation before we melt down another dime
in Iraq.

Especially if you live in Rhode Island, please make your voice heard on the
Bolton question as Republican Chafee has already expressed strong reservations
and the White House is leaning on him as hard as they can. But both of these
questions must come before the full Senate so it is important for each and every
one of us to speak out NOW for we are the people.

And please, if you have not already submitted your objections to the bankruptcy
bill in the house, there is still time as that debate was mercifully delayed to
this coming week. Whether you are outraged by its endorsement of usurous
interest rates of over 30 percent, or its abandonment of our medical cost
victims, our elderly on subsistance and our overdeployed military, we MUST take
a strong stand on this to build a platform for 2006. With enough of your
support we might even win this one now.

This is battle we can definitely win THIS WEEK if we all just speak out in the
interests of we the people. Democrats.com, PDA, MoveOn and many others have
issued action appeals stop fight this horrific bill. With the links in this
message you can send your personal message directly to all your members of
Congress at once. Please forward and post them everywhere you can. It's up to
us alone.
