Dear President Bush
President Bush,
Day after day I am tortured by one question - how do we stop this President from plunging us headlong into another war? How do we get someone this stubborn, with these particular advisors, to actually listen to those whom he serves?
How do we get through that you are a public servant? How do we make you understand, that you are NOT the decider - we are. You work for us - not the other way around.
I demand that you stop the rush to war with Iran. I urge you to use every option available to defuse tensions with Iran -- diplomatic, political, and economic -- before even considering military force. Military force must be viewed as the last resort -- not the first option. War is not the answer.
I am one voice in the wilderness of what has become our country. Can you hear me at all? Can you hear me?
Open your heart. Open your mind. Listen to the people who do NOT any more war - not in Iraq, not in Iran, not at all.
Please. Before it's too late.
