An Open Letter To Senator Patty Murray

Dear Patty,

This letter is a special request, one I hope you'll heed. It is a request for your immediate resignation from the United States Senate.

Y'see, Patty, you've made a rather large mistake. You've praised a known terrorist and murder as "humanitarian". Worse, this terrorist has killed US citizens on US soil. This country is currently at war with this terrorist and his organisation, which is not in any way a charitable group. They do not build day care centres - there is no need for such a thing in a country where Taliban rules forced women to stay at home with the children. They did build schools, but only those which boys could attend - boys who were inculcated with hatred through a perversion of the Noble Qur'an by Usama bin Laden and his cohorts.

You stated in your comments to high school students that bin Laden has done more charitable works than the United States. Let's see - bin Laden blows up 3,000 people on September 11, 2001. While the United States sends BILLIONS to countries around the world, including Afghanistan (which received over $100 million in the past year, if memory serves). Unless you call the wanton murder of innocents a charitable act, I think you're barkin' up the wrong tree here.

Your words were not meant to "foster debate", madam. They were meant to harm the United States. You know this, although you'll never have the guts to admit it publicly. If you want to blame yourself for your failings, be my guest. But don't blame the United States for the evil acts of others, and then pretend that those evil actors are instead "humanitarians".

Oh, and when you tender your resignation, I suggest you read the Constitution of the United States. You know, the one you supposedly swore an oath to when you became a senator. The one you were supposed to defend. There's a specific passage I'd like you to focus on -

Article III, Section 3
"Treason against the United States, shall consist only in levying War against them, or in adhering to their Enemies, giving them Aid and Comfort."

You have, by your words, given aid and comfort to the enemies of the United States during a time of war. As a member of the leadership of this nation, your words are given much greater range and strength, thereby compounding your guilt.

I would say that you should be ashamed of yourself. But it seems obvious that you have no shame. Sad, really.

Please resign immediately.

BTW, the vote right now is 94% for resignation, 6% against...

DocFarmer,

Now all we need is to have a few republican senators, who have spines, deliver your letter to Murray and read it to the rest of this nation. I agree 100%..... oh yeah, and it wouldn't hurt to have GW chastise Murray on national television, TrentLott-style......

"I am astonished the Republican Party would try to spin out of control a conversation with high school students," she said. "Republicans have been trying for six months to use the war on terrorism for political purposes."

This is an exerpt from the from the Star Tribune Washington Bureau by Les Blumenthal.....

Murray believes that the war on terrorism is political and has nothing to do with an attack on the US where 3000+ lives were lost.

This lady has got to go......
