Dear friend,
In an attempt to escape responsibility for the misleading statements that
led the nation to war, President Bush has announced plans to form an
independent inquiry to look into what went wrong. An inquiry would serve
the Bush administration well: it would envelop the issue in a fog of
uncertainty, deflect blame onto the intelligence services, and push any
political damage into 2005, after the upcoming election.
But the facts need no clarification. Despite repeated warnings from the
CIA and Defense Intelligence Agency, President Bush and his
administration hyped and distorted the threat that Iraq posed. And now
that reality is setting in, the President seeks to pin the blame on
someone else. We can't let him.
Congress has the power to censure the President -- to formally reprimand
him for his betrayal of the nation's trust. If ever there was a time to
use this function, it is now. Join the call for Congress to censure
President Bush now at:
Go There Now!
Thanks.
