BRING OUR MEN AND WOMEN HOME FROM FROM IRAQ, MORE AND MORE OF OUR TROOPS ARE DYING OVER THERE EVERYDAY AND FOR WHAT? OIL, REVANGE FOR YOUR DAD, WEAPONS OF MASS DISTRUCTION, TERRORISM? I FIND IT RATHER INTERESTING THAT WE DID NOT SEEM TO FIND ANY WEAPONS OF MASS DISTRUCTION YET AND REVANGE FOR YOUR DAD IS NO GOOD REASON TO GO TO WAR IN MIND AND TERRORISTS SEEM TO COME FROM EVERYWHERE. MOST OF THE IRAQI PEOPLE DO NOT SEEM TO WANT US THERE AT ALL. MY DAD HAD TO GO TO VIETNAM AS A YOUNG MAN, HE HAD TO SEE THINGS NO YOUNG SHOULD SEE AND DO THINGS NO YOUNG MAN SHOULD HAVE TO DO. HE FLEW PLANES IN NAM KNOW ANY DAY COULD BE HIS LAST. I AM HIS 33 YEAR OLD DISABLED DAUGHTER AND I AM PROUD OR MY DAD FOR NOT BOMBING NAM LIKE THEY ASKED HIM TO. I THINK THERE ARE THINGS ON HOMEFRONT THAT YOU COULD FOCUS ON: HEALTHCARE, HOMELESSNESS, THE POOR, MORE HOUSING FOR THE DISABLED AND OLDER PEOPLE, JOBS, GLOBAL WARMING, THE BUDGET AND MUCH MORE. IF YOU WANT TO HELP SOMEWHERE ABOARD HELP DARFUR IT VERY BAD AND THERE IS ALOT OF SENSELESS KILLING OVER THERE AND TIME IS RUNNING OUT FOR THEM. BUT PLEASE BRING THE TROOPS HOME OKAY. WE ARE NOT WINNING THE WAR LIKE YOU THINK WE ARE, THE VIOLENCE GETS WORSE EVERYDAY. SIGNED, KERRI LYNN MICELI |

(((((((Kerry)))))) Your heart speaks here and it speaks clearly. In war there are no winners. May voices like yours be heard, may leaders all over the world come to understand that there has to be an end to the senseless killing of each other. Humanity is One, we should have no enemies, we should learn to love and to care for each other. Yes Darfur! Dear Kerry, I reach out across the world and hold hands with you. I appreciate your work. Love and hugs. Margherita |
