Letter to my Congress Man

[Mtnjim]

I have ben reading, and finally read the entire "British Memo".
This is an email letter I just sent my congress member, enjoy:

"Sir;
I have a quick question, based on this memo, http://www.timesonline.co.uk/article/0,,2087-1593607,00.html ,(you may need to copy and paste the link, but I think you know which one it is) which shows lies and deception. Why has a congress that was so "up" to impeach President Clinton for a "blowjob" and lying about it NOT made one peep about a war that has killed 1600 Americans and perhaps 100,000 Iraquis. Aren't over 100,000 deaths, steering a country towards civil war (what a way to be rememberd in history "the American president who plunged *another* country into civil war), spending millions of dollars in dubious "reconstruction contract" (e.g Halliburtin), and then lying about the motives a little more serious then a "blowjob", or simply more profitable?

While I don't doubt that Sadam was a "bad man" , this country (and this Congress and President) have left "bad men" in place before, so I don't find that a justifiable excuse.

Thank You for your time."

You have a point or two there. ;)

It will be interesting to see whether you get a response.

Well, I got an answer from Duncan Hunter last Friday. It was a form letter where he speaks about proudly supporting President Bush's invasion of Iraq. I have just sent him this response to his letter:

"Sir,

Thank you for your recent response to my question espousing your support for President Bush's invasion of Iraq. However, that did not answer my question

My question was; why when President Clinton "fooled around" with an intern and lied about it there was a great outcry from congress for impeachment, however, when, to quote The Nation:

"It's not exactly a news flash that the Bush Administration lied to the public before the invasion of Iraq. What should be on front pages, though, is new proof of the Bush Administration's lies brought to light by the previously unknown Downing Street Minutes, recently obtained and printed in the Times of London. (The Downing Street Memo is a transcript of minutes of a secret meeting chaired by Tony Blair in Britain in July of 2002 to discuss preparations and propaganda before going to war. It was marked "Secret and strictly personal--UK eyes only.")

The Downing Street Minutes are deserving, in the words of constitutional lawyer John Bonifaz, of an official "Resolution of Inquiry directing the House Judiciary Committee to launch a formal investigation into whether sufficient grounds exist for the House of Representatives to exercise its constitutional power to impeach George W. Bush, President of the United States."

Has there has not been one peep?

Is lying about getting a "blowjob" really that much more serious than lying about killing over 100,000 humans?

Thank You for your time"

We'll see what he answers.

You'll get another form letter that does not address your question. I'll even give you odds if you are a betting man.

NAW, I figure you're right!

Maybe, at least, he'll send you a form letter condemning blowjobs.

Maybe it'll be from Jeff Gannon.

The other "deep throat."
