Last month, the House of Representatives passed a non-binding resolution opposing George Bush's plan to escalate American involvement in Iraq. But we need to do more to bring the troops home.

It's time to hold the Democrats' feet to the fire.

Non-binding resolutions are not enough. And it's a mistake to continue to let Bush and Cheney have their way.

Tell your U.S. Representative to limit the use of funds to protecting our troops' safety and bringing them home now. Then ask your friends and family to help end this war by forwarding this email to them.

Iraq is in utter chaos. It's a civil war, with American troops caught in the crossfire. The Bush Doctrine of "preemptive war" was morally and strategically stupid, and the dead and wounded are the visible result of his hubris. It's past time for the Democrats running Congress to force Bush to change strategy and bring the troops home.

President Bush and his team are responsible for decades worth of damage to America's reputation in the world. After 9/11, our country had support and sympathy from nearly every nation in the world. Millions of people marched in solidarity with America, and against terror. Today, that support is gone, squandered by Bush/Cheney. And they have wasted $2 trillion in the bargain, money that would be better spent on universal health care, good jobs and better schools here at home.

Next up: A vote on funding for the war. This war won't end until Congress uses its power of the purse to limit the use of funds to protecting our troops' safety and bringing them home. But for that to happen, our Representatives need to know that we demand action.

Tell your U.S. Representative that you want Congress to start bringing our troops home now. Limit the use of funds to protecting our troops' safety and bringing them home. Then ask your friends and family to take action by forwarding this email to them.
