President Bush has promised to attain formal approval from Congress for a pre-emptive attack against Iraq. Maybe he’s concerned about his diminishing popularity. In any case, Congress may reach their decision as early as the first week of October.
The most important factor for Congress will be where we, their constituents, stand. When confronted with the likely consequences of a war – dead American soldiers, regional instability, continued economic uncertainty here at home and the collapse of the coalition to fight terrorism – most Americans don’t support it.
We need to move quickly; let your senators and representatives know that you’re an American and proud of it, but you don’t support Bush’s reckless war campaign and reckless spending practices.
