BarackObama.com | 16 Votes to End This War
The Iraq war should never have been started, and it's long past time to end it.
We were one signature away from ending this war, but President Bush
defied the majority of Americans and vetoed the legislation. He has
shown, again and again, since the invasion began, that he will not
listen.
But the will of the American people must be followed. If President
Bush won't end the war, it's up to Congress -- the representatives of
the people -- to end it instead. We need 16 Republican Senators to
override a veto -- any 16 of the 49 Republicans can choose the people
over their party and decide to end this war.
In 20 states, an incumbent Republican Senator faces re-election in
2008. They will have to make clear very soon whether they will
continue to defy the will of the American people.
Now is the time to hold them accountable for their choices on the war.
Barack Obama is doing just that, and you can, too. Make sure they hear
your voice too.
