As you know, our nation's leadership is split on whether to go to war.
While Donald Rumsfeld and President Bush wish to launch a "preemptive
strike," Colin Powell and even many of the top generals are against
a war.
They know that the conflict will be dangerous and bloody, and that it
could
take years.

Many Senators would like to speak up on this issue, but they're
nervous that
their constituents will think they're being unpatriotic or "soft on
terrorism." We can help them realize that we want them to ask hard
questions about the costs of this conflict.

Our country will decide soon whether or not it's going to war. By
participating in a meeting with your Senator, you can help tip the
balance.

Register for a meeting in your state at:



We look forward to seeing you at the meetings.

Sincerely,

--Eli Pariser
