= "97546168"; Dear Theresa J,
Tuesday night, President Bush demonstrated that the public outcry about our
nation's single greatest concern, the war in Iraq, has fallen on deaf ears.
Opposition to the President's escalation plan isn't partisan -- Democrats,
Republicans, military leaders and the American people know it is a flawed
strategy. We need to end our open-ended commitment to Iraq and begin the phased
redeployment of American troops. President Bush has clearly chosen to ignore
that option.
Yesterday, with a bipartisan vote, the Senate Foreign Relations committee
sent a clear message to the President opposing his escalation plan. In the near
future, the full Senate will take up the resolution. However, I need you to
take action right now.
More than 30,000 GiveEmHellHarry.com members have already signed our message
to George Bush telling him, No Escalation - No Way. We need your help to reach
50,000 before the Senate vote. If you've already signed the petition, please
send this message along to your friends and family and ask them to lend their
voice.
Tell President Bush, No Escalation - No Way
President Bush's plan to escalate the war will not bring success in Iraq or
make America more secure. Congress will always put our troops first -- that
means holding the President accountable for a change of course and giving his
plan an up-or-down vote.
Democrats have a plan for success in Iraq that will make America safer,
protect our strategic interests and honor the sacrifice of our troops and their
families.
This plan includes:
* Shifting the principal mission of our forces from combat to training,
logistics, force protection, and counter terrorism;
* Beginning the phased redeployment of our forces in the next four to six
months;
* Implementing an aggressive diplomatic strategy, both within the region and
beyond, to help the Iraqis achieve a sustainable political settlement,
including amending their constitution.
We need to send George Bush as clear a message as possible: No Escalation -
No Way
As Jim Webb told the nation Tuesday night, if the President decides to take
action "for the benefit of the American people and for the health of our
relations around the world . . . . we will join him. If he does not, we will be
showing him the way."
Thank you,
Harry Reid
