"...it lets you "REVISE" the petition to have it say what you want - and they will go ahead and fax it and email it for you..."

Hmmmmmm, I did so but look at the return e-mail I gotin response.

The Virtual March on Washington is a first-of-its-kind group effort from the Win Without War coalition. Working together, we'll direct a steady stream of phone calls -- about one per minute, all day

-- to every Senate office in the country, while at the same time delivering a constant stream of emails and faxes. Think of it like a march

-- one by one, we'll be passing through our Senators' offices and the offices of the White House to let them know how we feel about this war.

Like a normal march, the success of this campaign depends on how many people participate. All you need to do is make three phone calls

-- it won't take more than 15 minutes of your time. But together with tens of thousands of others, it'll make a huge impression:

on February 26th, in every Senate office and in the White House, the phones will be ringing off their hooks. If you can't make calls on the 26th you can still register today to send free faxes. We'll hold them for you until the 26th

You can sign up for your time to call or place a free fax right now at: http://www.moveon.org/winwithoutwar/

Then forward this to everyone you know who might be interested.

Here's what Tom Andrews, a former Member of Congress and the National Director of the Win Without War Coalition has to say about the February 26th Virtual March: "Believe me, political leaders in Washington will get the message when their phones and fax machines light up -- and stay lit up -- from morning until night. They will know that there are a lot of us, that we care deeply about this unnecessary march to war, and that we are organized. Our message will be heard. But, we absolutely need you to make this work."

Last Saturday, millions of us in hundreds of cities around the world voiced our opposition to a war on Iraq. Please help us bring this dissent to Washington on February 26th, by taking part in the Virtual March.

Sincerely,
Ben

Here's a copy of the letter we'll send to your Senators:

Dear Senator:

I am a constituent of yours and I write today as a participant in Win Without War's Virtual March. I am one of the majority of Americans concerned that President Bush's rush to war is dangerous and unnecessary.

Our nation needs to support tough United Nations inspections. Going to war with Iraq will kill thousands of civilians and soldiers, create an atmosphere that breeds terrorists, and divert money from programs that can really create a safer and more just society.

Please do everything you can to support the inspections process and resist our nation rushing to war.

Sincerely,
(We'll add your name and address here)

Your message below was sent to:

Sen. Mike DeWine
140 Russell Senate Office Building Washington, DC 20510 Dear Senator DeWine,

Sen. George Victor Voinovich
317 Hart Senate Office Building
Washington, DC 20510
Dear Senator Voinovich,

I am a constituent of yours and I write today as a participant in Win the War and Kick out Saddam. I am one of the majority of Americans that supports President Bush and his policy to disarm Iraq.

Our nation needs to support our troops and our President. Going to war with Iraq will kill thousands of Iraq soldiers, which is too bad for them, they could surrender quickly like the French and save us all the trouble, but if they don't well then too bad for them.

Please do everything you can to support our President and our troops and tell Tom Daschle to shut up and get with the program. Oh yeah and tell Leahy to shut up and let's get on with the Estrada vote.

Sincerely,

Martin Sheensux

Guys,I am afraid maybe they will have thier message as well as your message in the fax! In other words we will be HELPING them. I do not think we should do this!

You are right about the faxes and even maybe the e-mails...after the first 20 or 50 they aren't going to keep reading, they'll just count them.....phone instead, make your voice heard.

A fax could be iffy (especially if they're not sending them in as edited), but a phone call should be fine - you are the one telling them what you want. I'd suggest if you're really worried about sending the wrong message to the White House, then you could join in the "turnabout" campaign and send your emails, faxes, and phone calls to the leftist contact numbers and addresses listed above...
