Sample Letters   :)

Subject: Stop All Republican Conspiracies Wars, let's get out now!   :)

Dear Sirs,

Hello.  Let's not repeat Bush's mistakes in Afghanistan, instead, let's get out now!

Iraq has shown the danger of sending American troops to occupy a Muslim country. The experience of the British and Soviets in Afghanistan should tell us that the danger there is even greater, and includes the risk of failure. Terrorism cannot be defeated by military force.

Please use diplomacy, and working through the United Nations, instead of trying to defeat the Taliban with bullets and bombs.  Thank you.

Truly,

Subject: Save trillions of dollars and millions of lives, Stop All Republican wars   :)

Dear Sirs,

Hello.  If we stopped all Republican wars, we'd save trillions of dollars and millions of lives; let's get out now!  The U.S. spends more money on defense than all the other nations of the world combined. We spend more than half of our GDP paying for present and past wars. We waste billions of dollars on complex weapons systems that serve no military purpose now that the Cold War is over. We cannot afford to continue our wasteful ways.

For the economic health of our country, we must drastically reduce the military budget and divert the funds to productive domestic programs such as rebuilding infrastructure and creating an equitable health care system.

President Obama and the Congress must reduce the defense budget by at least $75 billion this year, with continuing reductions in future years.  Thank you.

Truly,
