here is what i was contacting them about:

http://thomas.loc.gov/cgi-bin/query/z?c110:H.CON.RES.362:

here is the letter i sent:

I am strongly against resolution H.J. Res 362; dealing with tremendous sanctions, and boycotts and embargoes on the Iranians. I do not think the United States has the authority or the resources to carry out this resolution.

As inflation looms, I do not think it is wise for the government to exponentially add to the national debt. We have added 4 trillion dollar in the last 3 years. What kind of country are we leaving for our children? What does peace in the Middle-East mean if America's greatest asset, the middle class, is being wiped out.

Is it moral to support preemptive war? This seems very familiar to Iraq, where we had sanctions for ten years and then went in under false pre-tenses. Remembering that we never found weapons of mass destruction; the CIA in 2006 and the NIE in 2007 are both saying they do not have conclusive evidence that Iran is pursuing nuclear weapons.

H.J. Res 362 has very serious implications and could have unintended consequences. I greatly fear our future as we continually meddle in the Middle East.

In support of Liberty,

Robert Nogler
