Sample Letter Submitted by Anthony, Author Unknown
Dear Senator,
Though some time has passed, I wanted to let you know that I am among the many citizens who are grateful to you for opposing the nomination of John Ashcroft for US Attorney General. You and the other 41 brave and concerned Senators gave me a small sense of hope for the future. Of course, I would have preferred a filibuster, and that you had collectively blocked the confirmation, but the ultimate failure of our cause does not invalidate your efforts. Thank you for your courageous and principled stand on the Ashcroft matter. Mr. Ashcroft is a dangerous extremist who deserves no public post at all.
But this letter is mainly to encourage you to fight George W. Bush on every count, no matter how trivial. Mr. Bush was selected by the Supreme Court, having lost the popular vote. He was not elected by the people and would not have received Florida's electoral votes without the machinery of his brother's state government and the intervention of his daddy's cronies on the Court. No matter - the votes will be counted. Barring the application of martial law, the truth about Florida will come out despite the "new" administration's attempts to stuff it down the memory hole.
I am deeply concerned, and, frankly, worried about the next four years with Mr. Bush in the White House. I am strongly opposed to tax cuts that not only prevent paying off the national debt but increase it. I do not want one single penny of "tax relief" until this nation is debt-free, all its children have abundant food and medical care, and no one lives on the streets.
I am opposed to any "faith-based initiatives" that would give government funds to religious groups to provide social services. This would destroy the separation of church and state - if churches want to provide social services, let them find their own private funding. The "faith-based initiatives" idea is just another example of Mr. Bush paying off his special-interest groups, in this case the Christian right. Keep churches out of the pork barrel - no compromise.
I have deep concerns about the need for protecting Social Security and Medicare, as well as for providing prescription coverage for the disabled and our elders who need them.
By voting against Mr. Ashcroft, you have shown a genuine interest in the rights of the people. I trust that you will continue to consider the will of the majority by opposing all of the attempts by Mr. Bush to drag this nation back to the days of trickle-down economics and the cold war.
Mr. Bush was not elected. He has no right to appoint anyone at all to any court or office. Please do whatever you can to cripple his every initiative and prevent the half-baked ideas his advisors have been feeding him from ever seeing the light of day.
Not one nominee, not one initiative, not one step, not one compromise. If you stick to our guns, then we the people can still beat the Bush political crime family. If you do not, then America is lost.
Sincerely,
Anthony
