Re: [CTRL] Peaceful Reasoning
-Caveat Lector- What a total crock of bull. I have never sat through such NWO BS in my life. We (America) need to keep our missiles pointed straight at Russia and China more now than ever before. I know this much. If they nuke us I want to know while I'm dying that atleast we got some off and they are ON THEIR WAY straight up Red Square and Moscow. Wow, would you look at that. I said more with less than a hundred words than oh Global Boy said with a thousand. Sorry, I just hate global thinking. Why? Because that is how Clinton and Gore think. And that's a good enough reason for me.

We are very encouraged that DC Congresswoman Eleanor Holmes Norton has again introduced into Congress HR-2545, the Nuclear Disarmament and Economic Conversion Act of 1999, which calls on the U.S. to commit to global nuclear disarmament, and to redirect weapons funding to peaceful purposes such as housing, health care, education, food, and environmental restoration. See http://prop1.org/prop1/hr2545.htm. This bill was first submitted, in 1994, as the result of a successful Washington, DC ballot initiative (#37, 1993), which asked the mayor to advise our Congresswoman that the majority of the voters wanted her to introduce it.
