 Dear Phillip, Are you as fed up as I am? The Democratic majority in the House and Senate stood with the American people. They passed a bill that would fund our troops and begin the process to bring them home. President Bush's impending veto of the Iraq War supplemental bill is an insult to Congress, to the majority of Americans who voted for change in November, and to the brave men and women who risk their lives every day we remain in Iraq. One thing is for certain: A Democratic president wouldn't veto that bill. But that's not all that President Bush is doing. He's defending Alberto Gonzales for firing eight U.S. Attorneys, claiming he has "100 percent confidence in the Attorney General." And he's apologizing for the conditions of Walter Reed Medical Center six weeks after the conditions were exposed -- making promises to "fix the problem" that sound eerily similar to those he made to Hurricane Katrina victims. The days of a do-nothing Congress are over, but the days of a do-nothing President are still going strong. So are you ready to take action? Get started now: http://www.democrats.org/50StateCanvass On April 28th, the Democratic Party is organizing a national "Take Action" canvassing day. Thousands of people across the country are meeting up to let their neighbors know that there's a solution to the endless lies, corruption and scandal coming from the White House -- and that solution is a Democratic victory in 2008. Using our PartyBuilder system, you can search for a canvassing event in your neighborhood. If you don't see one, you can set one up yourself. Once you've signed up to attend or host an event, we'll make sure you have the materials you need to make your canvassing day a success. It isn't too early to start knocking on doors for a Democratic victory in 2008. Will you volunteer for the Democratic Party on April 28th? http://www.democrats.org/50StateCanvass Not ready to commit to hitting the streets in a couple weeks? Then help out those who can. By making a donation to the Democratic Party, you can help fund the April 28th canvassing day and other critical programs in the 50-state strategy. We need your help to pay for the tens of thousands of door hangers that volunteers will distribute, as well as our team of field organizers who will make sure the day goes off without a hitch. The American people are tired of President Bush's antics, and we need to make sure they hear the Democratic alternative. Make a donation to the Democratic Party today: http://www.democrats.org/FundTheCanvass President Bush won't fight for anyone but himself. You can join our Democratic leadership in fighting for a new direction in Iraq -- as well as here at home. Sincerely, Governor Howard Dean, M.D. P.S. -- A few state parties are working beyond April 28. If you're interested, check in with your own state party to see how they're organizing locally. | ||||
