Hey Silas,
I try to write a letter each week to my senators and congressman. I live in
Ohio. I have tried to write to other Senators but they never reply. I have been
told that they read all the letters they get. I don't get responses when I sound
like a pacifist. I know it is unpopular to say that I would never object
if anyone used anything I have written to get the attention of a politician.
I am very flattered that anyone agrees with me. I've been called
Un-American, Un-Christian and Immoral.
On the other hand, you could be teasing me and I'm irritating everyone with
my posts. I did have drain bammage. Often, I miss the
joke.
Maybe, we should write a type of handicapped manifesto. It could be the
first step toward equality for handicapped. or at least a sense of social
acceptance. I think we will impact whoever we write to more if we do
include as many signatures as possible.

Hey John,
How do we beat this into the heads of our so called
leaders? I swear the people on this list make a hell of a lot more
scence than the people running our countrys. How do we get our voices
heard, I would love to send this very post to Bush. Im sure there's a
hell of a lot more people that feel the same way, what if you or Stunt wrote a
letter and all of us and all our family and email friends sign it. That
would be a lot of people, at least they would know how we feel. We also
could send it to our states officials, am I making any scince here.
Please let me hear input good or bad.
Silas Feeling real helpless and pissttttttttt

If it is in a poem it must be true. Ali Baba and his butt bomb sure
make me fighting mad.
We can't and do not go to war with nations because they have evil
leaders. We have not declared war on the former country known as Burma. We
sat and denounced Vietnam in the 70's for going into Cambodia to end the
horror there. We propped up the Shah of Iran then can not understand
why Iran thinks we are their enemy. We backed the Taliban until 9/11. We
watched the genocide in Rwanda and today we blame the UN. We sat and
criticized India for intervening in Pakistan's civil war where millions
in Bangladesh we exterminated.
We have supported so many two bit dictators I'm surprised we have any
friends. We actually send foreign aid to numbered Swiss bank accounts. There
are some things seriously wrong in this world. I think we should help
correct many of the worlds ills but not as military power. If we truly
believe we should take the moral high ground then the first place we need to
invade is Washington DC.
Jefferson said this nation needs a revolution every few generations. We
are overdue.
