What would have been different if President Nixon had remained in office for another 2 1/2 years – how much more damage will George W. Bush do if he is allowed to stay in office for another 1 1/2 years? What is at stake?

The future of our country – and the rule of law.

Since the “surge” to protect American freedoms began in February, 2007, about 100 U.S. soldiers are being killed every month in George W. Bush’s Wars – and probably ten times or more Iraqi and Afghani civilians are being slaughtered each month. By September, 2007, 200 more American soldiers will be dead. By February, 2008, the date of the Presidential primary elections, 700 more American soldiers will be dead. By November, 2008, the date of the Presidential election, 1,600 more American soldiers will be dead. By January, 2009, when our new President is sworn into office, another 1,800 more American soldiers will be dead – and possibly another 18,000 civilians. And this is if things don’t get worse. None of the leading Presidential candidates from either party has gone on the record in favor of removing “all” U.S. military forces from Iraq and Afghanistan. Why?

Can American citizens be expected to respect the laws of our land if the President of the United States is allowed to get away with murder?

And most importantly – what message are we sending to our children by allowing this injustice to continue? What will the world be like that we are making for them? Perpetual war?

That’s what some folks are banking on.
