| Please Help Cynthia McKinney
Sons OF Afrika" From: "Junious Ricardo Stanton" Date: Sun, 16 Jul 2006 22:16:05 -0400 Subject: [SOA] Please Help Cynthia McKinney Dear Friend: I recently spoke on the House Floor about the $21 billion missing from the rebuild Iraq fund. As I stated on the House Floor, some of those funds were shipped to Baghdad in suitcases filled with $100 bills. As a result of questions that I posed to Secretary Rumsfeld and the Pentagon Comptroller, we now know that the Pentagon has spent $20 billion in an attempt to make its computers talk to each other. At the beginning of his tenure, Rumsfeld admitted that the Pentagon can't "track" $2.3 trillion dollars, but hastened to add that the United States could afford that and more. Finally, I recently submitted an amendment to the Pentagon funding bill to stop its purchases of Tamiflu as long as Rumsfeld is Defense Secretary and owns stock in the Tamiflu company. There was a time when these questions would be routine: a part of the normal oversight of the Executive Branch that Congress is charged with. But nowadays, too few Members of Congress are asking any of the tough questions that the American people deserve answers to. I will not stop asking the tough questions and I will not abdicate my responsibility of oversight. But I need your support in order to stay in Congress, asking the tough questions. The district I'm seeking to represent is a democratic performing district--yes, Georgia implemented a Tom DeLay mid-decennial redistricting and I have new territory to cover in my current campaign. That also means that the Primary Election is--the primary election! I need your help now--to overcome my two Democratic opponents who are running against me. I also have a Republican opponent, but I have to win the Primary on Tuesday in order to face her in November. That's why I need your help now. This will be my last solicitation for help before Tuesday's election. We must have a massive presence on the streets of my district on election day, especially in the new areas, and that's why I need your help now! If you have already given as much as you can give, please pass this on to your family and friends and ask them to help. I thank you for your help. If you have not yet given, this is the last solicitation that will help us make a difference before election day on Tuesday, July 18th. It's hot in Georgia and we need to feed, ice, water, t-shirt, pamphlet, gas up, and otherwise encourage our volunteers. Ours has been a volunteer effort, including the website that will process your e-donations. Please send what you can by snail mail to: Cynthia for Congress PO Box 371125 Decatur, GA 30037 or contribute online at www.cynthiaforcongress.com/donate.php A second shout out to the gentleman who had bottled water delivered to the headquarters. Hundreds of volunteers thank you, too. And thanks to NYC for a wonderful event Thursday night! As you can see, all contributions are welcome and needed. Thank you all on this e-list for your encouragement and support. I won't stop fighting and standing up for the values that represent us. Sincerely! YO~ YO~ YO~ YO~ YO~ YO~ YO! |
