Re: troop escalation in Iraq... what can I do besides the online petition linked here?

[GaYellowDawg]

I am firmly against putting more troops into Iraq. I don't want more in, I want them OUT.

I have been absolutely scorched by some on here by admitting that I initally verbally supported going to war against Iraq, and saying that I would have signed the resolution. Of course, now that I've got a lot more information and I'm on the right side, I would like to do something besides argue with people on a bulletin board. My question is this:

As an average citizen with zero local, state, regional, or influence, what can I do to protest a troop increase in Iraq? The only think I could think of was to start an online petition that you can sign here:

1. We must wait until we take control of Congress in January

then Cut Off The Funding!!! It takes money to move troops.

2. Nothing anyone can do.

The Dems in Congress may complain but they will fund it.

3. Then why did we elect or re-elect them last month?
