Dwight Pelz: "Help us launch the McCain Plane"

Dwight Pelz:

John McCain will be in Washington next Tuesday, and we want to give him a special welcome.

Five years ago, George Bush stood in front of a banner saying "Mission Accomplished" in Iraq. And John McCain has stood with Bush in this disastrous war every step of the way. Now - five years, 4,000 lost lives, and at least $500 billion later - John McCain says keeping our troops in Iraq for 100 years would be fine with him.

McCain is bringing his campaign to give Americans a 3rd Bush term to our state next week, and when he steps out of his limo on May 13th, we're planning to make sure "it's written in the skies" that his views are out of step with those of Washington voters. The plan is to hire an airplane that will carry a special message to Republican John McCain, and everybody else who is paying attention. Can you help us by donating just $25?

McCain and the Republicans have been tight-lipped about his plans in the Puget Sound area, but we believe he'll be landing at Boeing Field around lunchtime, doing a mid-afternoon event in Seattle, and headlining a 5 pm fundraiser in Bellevue where people are being charged as much as $33,100 per person.

What are you doing this Tuesday afternoon? Are you interested in joining your fellow Democrats to demonstrate and personally let John McCain know you disapprove of his campaign to give Americans a 3rd Bush term in the White House? If so, please RSVP at 100years@wa-democrats.org, and we will send you times and locations once McCain and the Republicans finally disclose his schedule.

I know that this Democratic nomination process is taking longer than any of us imagined - or would have hoped. Thank you for your continued support. I know that we can all join together in the belief that a Democratic president - whoever he or she may be - is much better than John "100 Years in Iraq" McCain.

All the best,



Dwight Pelz
Washington State Democrats Chair

p.s. The Democrats don't have a nominee yet, but we do know what the alternative is - a 3rd Bush term with Republican John McCain. Let's join together on May 13th to remind voters what John McCain really stands for - perpetuation of this war by someone who's "fine" with 100 more years in Iraq.
