I respect the men and women of conviction that are part of PNA.In a few areas,you have changed my mind.The Iraq War is a quagmire.It is draining our national treasury.The Iraq War is dividing our nation and alienating our allies.

Is this part of al'qaeda's strategy? Divide and conquer and to sap the United States economic base? I remember that hours following the September 11 2001 attack.The world was united in a voice of anger and resolve to deal with terrorism.G W Bush held in his hands,the good will and unity to align a true coalition to counter terrorism.He had the opportunity to take his seat amongst the giants of history.He chose the path that angels fear to tread and rushed in the neocon reactionary route.

I did yoemans work to help progressives get elected last year and truly believed that the new Congress would find a way to end our involvement in the Iraqi War and restore sanity to Washington DC.

The Democrats have done all they could.The Republicans have blocked them at every turn.They can continue the focus on the war with various resolutions and debates.Now is where you and I come in.Its time for a national debate on the Iraq War in all 435 House Districts across the U S A.Dare the Republicans to stifle this debate.They can't. Bin Laden and his operatives will see America it her best.They will see the will of 54% of Americans articulate a strategy to exist Iraq.They will see the best of what you and I have to offer in terms of security and stablility of the Middle East.They will see the sentiment return hours after the 9/11 attack,where a world is united under the auspices of the United Nations to combat global terrorism.

Security of my neighborhood is of paramount concern.Our communities are better served if our military is here to protect us from harm.Our first responders can better serve us if funding is adequate to do the job.The future generation is better served if they are not saddled with a national deficit.

---and a ton of salt.Did the police officer take a cue from Lon Chaney(oops-Dick Chaneys) rule book? Seems like nothing happens in Union City Georgia.The police officer that arrested a minimum wage McDonalds worker over-reacted.

Monday September 10th,10:00AM,Hyatt downtown.Here is your opportunity to meet Mr Richardson.What ideas would you offer Bill Richardson for the governance of our nation?

I challenge the Neighborhood Congress to inspire persons of color,women,and the Gay community to get involved.

An organized West Denver? A strong GOTV effort paved the way for Senator Ken Salazar to win his Senate seat.
