Your Chance to Speak Out Patriots!
by Tina Grazier
Hugh Hewitt offers a great way to let our congressmen know we will not tolerate their support of resolutions against the war!
What does it mean to “encourage the enemy?� It means to increase their will to fight on, and their courage to do so even in the face of the arrival of reinforcements.*** In response to a direct question from Senator Lieberman, General Petraeus testified under oath that any resolution denouncing the strategy in Iraq would encourage the enemy.
General Petraeus was confirmed by the Senate on Wednesday --which has to mean that the senators who voted for him have confidence in his military judgment.
Many Democrats are willing to encourage the enemy if it means hurting George W. Bush. They are willing to disregard the advice of the general they have just sent to do a mission if it serves their political purposes.
Because the troops and the war trump any partisan calculation, I have helped organize a campaign to alert Republican senators that a vote for the Warner resolution, or any other similar resolution, is a deal breaker for me. I will not contribute to any senator who so votes, and I will not work for any senator who so votes.***Further, I will withhold all funds from the NRSC if the NRSC supports in the ’07-’08 cycle any Republican senator who voted for the Warner amendment.
Go Vote Now The NRSC Pledge to join with Hugh in his refusal to support republicans who vote for the Warner resolution. It is particularly important this week-end. The radical left anti-war crowd is organizing a march on Washington to press for legislative action against the war (and probably impeachment as well). This is an easy and effective way to make your voice heard in Congress and to trump the anti-war crowd at the same time.

I would ask all who can, to take adavntage of this opportunity for the benefit of those in the service.
If we are willing to sacrifice for this war, and we have the greatest to lose in its execution, than perhaps others should be willing to stand by our determination through political action such as this.

I have spoken out and I expect everyone with an ounce of patriotism and concern for our service men and women to speak out too! It only takes 1 minute...surely you can do this much to make a difference, can't you?
