Dear Congresswoman Pelosi:
You are obviously one of the key figures among a growing number of representatives in the United States who have been speaking out against the policies of the Bush administration. Being so acutely aware of the lies and manipulation in Washington, you must be puzzled as to why the American people are not out in the streets demanding just leadership. No one seems quite sure why this is.
I am inspired by a story from Mexico, where lawmakers have apparently barred the president from delivering his state of the union address for the first time in history. I don’t know whether Mr. Fox has behaved as poorly as some have claimed, but I would love to see the same thing happen here. Since the citizens of this ailing country have apparently been lulled into complacency, what would it take to get lawmakers in the U.S. to stir things up a bit more?
Truly,
Liz Mann
