FReepers: Now's the time. Stand up and be counted. The C-in-C needs our help…

URGENT: The Commander-in-Chief needs our help. Our brave military needs our support. Heck, America needs our leadership.

We’re in a very real, potentially very hot war not of our choosing, but one that each one of us has a responsibility to help win. We on the center-Right to Right side of the political spectrum cannot afford to cede the public relations aspects of this war to the Left — and to the terrorists and tyrants the Leftists coddle with their stupid protests. Unlike the 1960’s, if we sit back and don’t respond to the Left, this time we may very well sign our own death warrants — and those of our children and grandchildren. We simply cannot let the enemy win.

Yesterday, Hollywood Leftist mouthpiece, Mike Farrell, was on the Sean Hannity radio program. In response to a caller who tried her best to tell him off, he issued a challenge. In his most condescending, scornful, smug manner, he essentially told her to go out and organize her own protests if she didn’t like what he and his fellow travelers were doing.

OK! Fine. For the last several days I’ve been having a little debate with myself as to whether or not to try to start what I would call the "Six Little Words" campaign. Finally decided that, instead of "grumbling in my beer" about the likes of Mr. Farrell, or taking my anger out on the family and dogs, I decided he’s right. It’s time to take up Farrell’s challenge. Perhaps he unwittingly awoke a sleeping giant: Americans everywhere who oppose the Left’s agenda. Or perhaps not. We shall see.

We on the Right tend not to go out in the streets and protest. But can we at least rouse ourselves to do something very easy, very inexpensive, and very quick to make OUR voices heard? How, you ask? With "Six Little Words" that just may help save our civilization.

It’s time for you, and I, and everyone who understands the danger, to stand up and be counted. It’s time to see what we're really made of — after all, if the hijackings and anthrax atrocities of Sept. and Oct. 2001, and the sniper attacks last year, have taught us anything, it is that we are all on the front lines in this war.

Pick up a pen or pencil, take a piece of paper and write: IRAQ: I SUPPORT YOU, MR. PRESIDENT. Put the paper in an envelope, seal it, slap a stamp on it, and mail it to:

President George W. Bush
The White House
1600 Pennsylvania Avenue NW
Washington, DC 20500

DO NOT USE EMAIL TO CONTACT THE WHITE HOUSE. Handwritten letters are still the most effective way to contact our elected officials. Volume emails (spam) just pile up and often are deleted without being read. There is still no substitute for millions of pieces of mail arriving at the Presidential offices.

Be sure to send the letters to the WHITE HOUSE, not Congress. Congress is out of this now, since they already authorized the President to take all necessary action. They are not likely to take up another resolution. However, if you’re in the mood, make COPIES of your "Six Little Words" letter to the President and send ONE EACH to your member of Congress and your state’s two senators. If you don’t know who they are or where to address the envelopes, look here: House. and Senate.

Then talk to, phone and/or email your family, friends, business associates, neighbors, local political clubs, and anyone else you can think of, and urge them to do the same. It should not be one letter per household, but one letter for each person in the household old enough to sign their own name.

So what if the Left can turn out millions in the streets. Each and every one of us has the power to counter them. We FReepers should be able to generate millions of "Six Little Words" letters to the President with even a small effort.

BTT Just sent mine.

[Wolfstar]

Thanks for all your effort, Ragtime Cowgirl. Somehow, someway, we've got to pour it on to counterbalance the Left's street power.

[Wolfstar]

Great brochure, "HRtoC." Did you design it?

[firewalk]

Please don't yell at us!

Coolguy pinged me already....what is your problem?!??...

</*mischievous grin*>

hope you have a nice weekend Nic (-:

Write GOD BLESS AMERICA on the back of the envelope : )

Excellent idea! {{{{{{{{{{{The Mayor}}}}}}}}}}}

[demosthenes the elder]

I don't have a pinglist.
I don't know how to construct one.
I don' need no steenkin' pinglist... all I need is a couple of names: THEY have pinglists.

Write GOD BLESS AMERICA on the back of the envelope : )

Great idea, Mayor!

The Ladie's can do the S.W.A.K. thingy. : )

[Wolfstar]

Great, MGHinTN. God bless you. I have learned the hard way over years spent in public communications that simple is best. But folks like you who want to put more effort into it are terrific. I couldn't be more proud of the FReepers who are making ANY effort to support the President and our military. If not now, when 9/11 showed us in no uncertain terms that we are on the front lines in a very real war, then when?

[cgk]

thanks for the head's up. bookmarked & following orders.

I just got mad one Thursday and started to do this in Word and Voila! (Oops, I am boycotting the Frenchies, too).

[conservativemusician]

Consider it done, nic.

It's the least we can do.

[cgk]

I respectfully disagree with this particular thread being an abuse of the state lists. This does apply to ALL of us in every state, as it has to do with a call for action involving the President of ALL of us.

The abuse of state lists I most often see are local stories in a particular state that are bumped to the whole nation, or stories about members of congress bumped to the wrong states.

:)

[Wolfstar]

Not meant that way, OldFriend. Nor were Rush, Sean, and Bennett offering advice to the President. Instead, they were expressing concern about two things: [1] The Left has used this year-long build-up period to organize and build strong opposition. In the UK and other countries that have been staunch allies, the political leaders are under considerable pressure to withdraw support to us or risk their political careers. [2] Going to the UN for what amounts to permission to defend ourselves has been a mistake.

[Wolfstar]

Re your post #53: wink and grin!

[Paulie]

Letter written, will mail tonight. I will also be urging others to do likewise.

Thanks for the ping, nicmarlo

[nicmarlo]

Thanks for not getting mad!! : )

Three letters will be going out from my home tomorrow!!

[Wolfstar]

Great work. I noticed in another post that you are concerned about emailing the file due to the size of the file. Do you have Photoshop or a comparable package? If so, you may be able to compress some of the images to reduce overall file size. Feel free to use FR email to let me know. Perhaps there's a way I can help with this.

[Wolfstar]

Thank you for your support, cgk. I had the same take on use of the states list for this post as you did. I even made a point of pinging Jim Robinson, so if he has a concern, I'm sure he'll let me know.

[Wolfstar]

Very cute ani graphic. Where did you acquire it?

[conservativemusician]

Pings don't get me mad.;)
