Send a message to your Senator: Don’t Bomb Iran!
May 21st, 2008 posted by 2CDC
The Jerusalem Post broke the news this morning: George Bush intends to attack Iran in his final months in office.
“The official claimed that a senior member of the president’s entourage, which concluded a trip to Israel last week, said during a closed meeting that Bush and Vice President Dick Cheney were of the opinion that military action was called for.”1
Congress has the power to stop him. There is a resolution already in the Senate called S. Res. 356. It’s a straightforward and simple resolution that says, “A resolution affirming that any offensive military action taken against Iran must be explicitly approved by Congress before such action may be initiated.”
Tell your Senator to support and fight for S. Res 356.
Today’s story is just the latest to discuss the increasingly belligerent rhetoric of the Bush administration towards Iran. Just last week, President Bush compared anyone who seeks to negotiate with Iran to those who appeased the Nazis prior to World War II.
We only have a few months until our long national nightmare of the Bush Administration comes to an end. But, it is abundantly clear that they intend on going out with a bang. It’s time for the Congress to embrace its role as a co-equal branch of government and stop them before it is too late.
Thanks for taking action to stop another war,
