Help support the Senator’s anti-torture amendment by visiting the following sites: Torture Is Not Us and True Majority.


Banning Alito

Alito’s past is mired with controversial issues that should make any concerned citizen worry. Learn more about his record and let your voice be heard by visiting Alito's America or write to your senator.


Exiting Iraq
Apparently, Congress still has to be convinced of withdrawing U.S. troops from Iraq. Visit the MoveOn web site and send them a clear message:


Joe Lieberman on Not Questioning Bush on Iraq

Urge Senators to Filibuster the Patriot Act

Some senators had threatened to filibuster the Patriot Act if this happened, so it’s time to encourage these senators to follow through. Visit the People for the American Way web site to sign the petition requesting a filibuster.

Upshot of our Nov. 9th group discussion on current politics:

It wasn't the Russians that got us Trump. Or Comey. Or even the massive GOP election fraud. It was the DNC.*

Iraq Deaths Estimator
Did someone tell you that U.S. military intervention in Iraq was over? Not true: we're at it again. This time the pretext to drop bombs is "curbing ISIS" (which was created by the U.S. in the first place, to overturn al-Malaki in Iraq and then Assad in Syria, and is now out of hand. Like what happened to "our" creature al Qaeda in Afghanistan). And the death toll continues to rise...
Write your senators and tell them: "Enough! U.S. out!! Iraq has shown it can curb ISIS by itself!"
