If you get a DCCC survey - Send them Justice is Comin's Pledge
I just filled out the idiotic Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee's 2006 New Directions Survey:

Sample questions:
"Do you think the Republicans are committed to umproving public schools?"

"What is your outlook for America during the second term of George W. Bush?"

"Which of the two parties do you trust most when it comes to protecting our environment?"


What value can these questions possibly have?

I sent our Justice is Comin's Pledge inside the survey envelope.

Pledge To America

We pledge to you that if Democrats are privileged to return to majority in Congress:

The American people will be our priority, not politics.

Budget funding will provide for America's needs, not foreign nation building.

Indictments will be replaced by integrity. Ethical wrongdoing whoever, or wherever, it is found, will be exposed, investigated, and prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law.

We will fully preserve tax cuts for the middle class. It will be the millionaire tax cuts left behind, not the schools, teachers, children, veterans, poor, college students and the elderly.

Real innovations for energy independence and new fuel technologies will be policy, not rhetoric.

Immediate legislation will be introduced to raise the minimum wage, and relentlessly pressured until signed into law.

America will no longer be the only industrialized nation without Health care coverage for the uninsured. Health care coverage shall finally be a right and Democrats will lead the way vigorously to make it law.

Immediate legislation will be introduced to halt our raging deficit and foreign debt. Pay as you go measures will be proposed and fought for until adopted.

Homeland Security will be known for measures of increased security, not for red, orange and green threat alerts. Democrats will insist on extraordinary Homeland Security safeguards which will result in grades of A’s, not F’s.

Lastly and our most solemn pledge, Democrats in Congress will insure war is unequivocally and without exception only a last resort, not a Presidential choice of regime change, and never without a plan to first, secure the peace.

Yet, let no aggressor misinterpret our resolve. Any aggression against the United States, whether it be individual, group or organization, Democrats will insure the aggression is met with the swiftest full force and might of the entire United States Military and all it’s technologies. We shall place no higher priority than United States citizens being safe in their homes, their possessions and their lives.


We ask that you believe in us, challenge us, and together, let us bring America back to greatness !


Signed and sworn by affidavit,
