Brothers and sisters – my fellow military veterans:

We need to come together and create a presence in the Houston area for the great national Veterans for Peace organization you have been reading so much about in conjunction with the growing anti-Iraq war movement and the amazing Cindy Sheehan stand to hold Bush accountable for his reasons in taking our young people into Iraq to be slaughtered and maimed. Are you as outraged and inspired as myself to speak up with the authority reserved only for those like us who have served our country? Then come to this meeting and let's get it going.

Body:

Targeted to activists, political club members and those newly involved in the political process, this workshop focuses on quality of life issues such as environment, transportation, and education important to Democratic and independent voters in suburban and urban areas campaigns.

To win elections in our region, Democrats need to communicate about issues important to Democrats and a segment of "independent" voters. We can't just shout at George W. Bush and complain about Republicans, we need to speak out about issues that a majority of voters care about.
