 Dear Phillip, After a week of trying to control the damage from his trip to Baghdad, John McCain admits that he "disagree[s] with the majority of the American people." He claims that "we are making progress" in Iraq. He's not the only one. Rudy Giuliani, Mitt Romney and John McCain, the GOP 2008 presidential frontrunners, all stand behind the actions of an administration incapable of admitting its failures and changing course in Iraq. Last week we asked you to become a spokesperson for the Democratic Party and respond to the Republicans' ridiculous claims about the war. You came through, spoke out, and we created our first ad of the 2008 presidential race -- starring you. Take a look, and help us fund more ads starring people just like you: http://www.democrats.org/IraqAd The Iraq War won't end because of Washington D.C. consultants' 30-second sound bites; it will end because of the strength and determination of the American people. You made that point last fall when you voted the Republican Congress out of office -- and you're making that point now. Tens of thousands of Americans let us know just how fed up they are with an administration that ignores their concerns just to advance a political agenda. Here's what Edwin had to say in his comments to us: "The issue of the Iraq war goes way beyond partisan politics. The Republican Party has lost touch with the will of the American people. The time has come for a change. The people spoke during the mid-term elections, and I know we will make a positive change for the coming presidential election." I couldn't have said it better myself. That's why we need more opportunities for people like you to speak out for our party, and let the voices of our members speak for the Democratic majority. You can make that happen. By making an investment in the Democratic Party, you can help us fund future ads like this one, and other projects that put political power in the hands of the American people. Watch our newest ad, and make a contribution now: http://www.democrats.org/IraqAd We'll continue hold the Republican 2008 candidates accountable for everything they say on the campaign trail. This is just the first way that you can be a part of the action. Sincerely, Governor Howard Dean, M.D. | ||||
