TOMORROW WE CONFRONT THE SENATORS WHO LOVE THE WAR AND HATE THE TROOPS
>
Tomorrow the Senate will again take up the Webb Amendment that mandates that frontline troops be given as much time away from battle as they've spent fighting. The House has already passed it and a majority of senators favor this approach as well. Again, Bush vows to veto the bill if his stooge Miss McConnell fails to obstruct it to death. Last time it came up there were 56 votes for it. It needs 60 to get by McConnell's Cheney-mandated filibuster. One of those votes will be Tim Johnson (D-SD) who is back in the Senate. The Republicans who are wavering and could be pushed into a position to support the troops instead of supporting the failed policies of this Regime include:
Lisa Murkowski (R-Alaska)
DC: 202-224-6665
Anchorage: 907-271-3735
George Voinovich (R-Ohio)
DC: (202) 224-3353
Cleveland: (216) 522-7095
Elizabeth Dole (R-North Carolina)
DC: 202-224-6342
Raleigh: 866-420-6083
John Warner (R-Virginia)
DC: (202) 224-2023
Roanoke: (540) 857-2676
Arlen Specter (R-Pennsylvania)
DC: 202-224-4254
Harrisburg: (717) 782-3951
