Public Opposes Wars, Will Our Representatives?
Submitted by davidswanson on Fri, 2009-10-23 04:10.
Here's background and the basics. Here are the 32 who voted No on funding in June 2009. Here's a way to reward them. Here's a flyer on ending the war in Vietghanistan: PDF. Here's how to step up your activism. Here's what's needed instead of bombs and guns. Here's a way to nonviolently resist. Here's a list of top targets and multiple ways to contact them.
Please phone your Representative and post below what they tell you. Thanks!

My elected Representative
Jim Cooper, is nothing short of being just another FRAUD. He supports and votes the way Nancy Pelosi tells him to vote. Always has, always will.
He was not available, didn't know when. {I tell you, he will not commit until he receives directions from Pelosi.
He voted No in June as a real representative when it didn't really matter. But when the REAL vote mattered, he voted with Pelosi as he was instructed. He's DOES NOT represent the majority of district TN05. As I've said, he's a Pelosi man.
Frank Wolf, R-VA
Last Friday I spoke with a woman in Wolf's DC office and asked for his positions on the four issues in the Stop Funding War table. She said she'd have to get back to me.
She hadn't called back by that afternoon so I called back to find out why. She said she had passed my comments on to the Congressman, but I clarified that they were not meant to be comments, rather questions and I really wanted to know his positions.
This afternoon someone from Wolf's office called and spoke with my husband who related to me that Wolf's answers to all four questions were No on HR2404; No on HR3699; No on restricting troop/mercenary levels; No on ceasing funding other than for withdrawing troops.
Guess I'd have been pretty surprised if it had been otherwise!
War funding.
Lois Capp's office rep said that she will not support any more funding for the wars. Gallegly's office said he supports funding. That's Ca. for you--split.
