I figure it's the least I can do

Dear Senator Boxer,

I want to write and express my support for taking a hard line against the Iraq war. I understand that there is no good solution to Iraq. The way I see it, we should either pull out as soon as possible, or we should devote the tremendous troops and resources necessary to actually do the job. Resources which I understand are beyond even what Bush is requesting.

I think that to stay and do it right would be more honorable, but I do not have confidence in our current Executive Branch to lead such an effort to success. It shames me, but I would not be willing to risk the life of my son or daughter to fix what the current administration has broken, even though I bear some responsibility for it, as do all Americans.

Yours sincerely,

Amanda Windsor

Oh, very well said! I should copy a version of something very similar to my congressperson!

Please do. :) I experience a certain amount of apathy in CA as all my congresspersons are already about as blue state as it gets without any help from me, but in this case I thought a message of support would be good.

Very well done. I hope you get an answer.

AND thanks for posting this.
