Give peace a chance
To the editors,
Please let your readers be aware of the peace rally and march
against the war in Iraq. It takes place this Saturday (10/26)
at noon at Rotary Park, with a march down Main Avenue at 1:30
p.m.
I in no way endorse (or want) any action against Iraq and will
not vote for any candidate/politician who is for it. The personal
agenda of CEO George W. Bush, and the rest of the oil company
in the White House, must be stopped. It’s a shame that
the people of the United States’ democratically elected
representatives have made a choice to forego their constituencies’
voices and are following the personal agenda of George W. Bush.
Let’s make sure our voices are heard this weekend, on
Nov. 5 and during the next presidential election.
I hope our leaders and those who support this war (for the record:
McInnis and Campbell voted for the war) are able to sleep soundly
when innocent Americans are fighting a war that no one wants.
In addition, our leaders should be extremely ashamed of themselves
using Sept. 11 as a rally call.
It’s time to get off your couches and do something. Don’t
sit back idly and let it happen. We can make a difference. Remember:
1) If you don’t vote (and speak up), you can’t complain;
and 2) Vote with your conscience, not with your fears!
