Entire House to Debate Iraq

This piece from TrueMajorityACTION.org came through the great Havasu Evolutionary Diane McCarthy.

We've just learned that House Majority Leader John Boehner (R-OH) has privately told Republican colleagues he will allow a "lengthy debate" on America's Iraq war policy. According to Congressman Wayne Gilchrest (R-MD), the announcement "caused a hush to fall over the audience."1

IT'S WORKING. You and other TrueMajorityACTION members have been pushing Congress for this debate for months. After three years of silence, it's about time our representatives start considering alternatives to "staying the course" in Iraq.

More big news: you'll be able to hear the new, surprise Neil Young antiwar album, "Living With War" on the TrueMajorityACTION website.

Neil's "most powerful album in years"2 will be available for FREE on Friday. This is a great chance to bring more people into the growing movement for sanity in Iraq. Be sure to forward this e-mail widely and send your friends .

Along with the free album tracks, we'll have a petition supporting Sen. Russ Feingold's (D-WI) new move to bring the troops home by New Year's.3

We'll send you another message tomorrow with more details. But tell your friends tonight about the new album: "A fierce, comprehensive indictment of the Bush administration and all its failures, at home and abroad."2
