Look, fan mail : )

Peace is patriotic

In your Feb. 27 article about peace activists preparing to mobilize if war should start, pro-war activist Susan Eaton of Raleigh was quoted as saying that "her people" would not turn out in support of the war "because most of the people in our group have jobs." To me, this is smearing and marginalizing those who disagree with you. Despite what the pro-war crowd would have you believe, I am employed, a business owner, clear-thinking, patriotic, Christian and totally against this war. I do support our troops -- by wanting them back home with their families, alive. I do think Saddam Hussein should be removed from power, but I know the United States is clever, resourceful and powerful enough to make this happen without a horrific war. I believe (along with our own CIA) that there is no immediate threat, and that "fools rush in."

When 3,000 innocent Americans were killed by those who opposed our government, we rightly called it murder by terrorists. Now we propose to invade a country that has not attacked us and has no real means to do so, and in the process kill tens of thousands of their innocent citizens. If, as we say, our problem is not with the Iraqi people but with Saddam, why must we kill them, and become terrorists ourselves?

Fan mail, huh? LOL!

Sounds like you really struck a nerve there... methinks he doth protest too much. :)
Further, his moral relativism - comparing the US to terrorists - sickens me.

The statement that 'fools rush in' is quite misinformed.
I don't know many reasonable people that would characterize 12 years and nearly 20 UN resolutions as a "rush".

Great! Please pass the word.

I also have a flyer if you're interested.

[Constitution Day]

Could you make this visible in the sidebar again? Thanks.

I have been handing out flyers down here in Fayetteville. Some of the girls that I used to work with said that they are coming. I hit two of the radio stations today also. One is part of Beasley Broadcasting and the other is part of Cumulus Broadcasting. Within each broadcast group we have about 3 or 4 different stations. Hopefully, this means that I will be getting the message out on 6 or 8 radio stations. I also went by the larger gun dealer's today and left a flyer and the girl at the Harley dealership had me leave some on her counter. Has anyone thought of trying Channel 14. They do run PSAs I've noticed. I have also thought of trying our local cable ad channel which runs nothing but PSAs.

Great job dstarr!
I'm getting some bills paid tonight, but will follow up further in the morning.

Yes!

Bob, can you get the moderator to bump this into the sidebar?
I asked twice yesterday.... no response.

[Bob J]

I dropped an "abuse report" on them..heheh. This is usually the fastest way to get your request to them.

[Constitution Day]

Thanks, but when I said I asked twice, I should have said I hit "abuse" twice.
I only pinged the Sidebar Mod once on the thread.

CD,

I have emailed some friends and family about the Rally. Wish I could do more, I will try to be at the rally itself if circumstances allow.
