Not So Strange Bedfellows

Dear Friend,

Provide Jim the resources to win. Contribute Today!

Today, I ask you to join me in supporting Jim Webb's campaign for U.S. Senate.

Jim has dedicated most of his adult life to issues surrounding our national security. He has never backed away from a fight, whether it has been in combat, or in the all-important political arena in which our nation's future is being resolved. In addition, as a Vietnam veteran I have always been grateful to Jim for the thousands of hours he has spent, pro bono, helping those who served in Vietnam. He is just the kind of leader the Senate needs.

I would like nothing more than to work side-by-side with Jim Webb in the U.S. Congress. But to do this, Jim must win the June 13th primary, and what is sure to be a bruising general election against George Allen.Please provide Jim the resources he needs to win in June and this November. Contribute today!

I spent 37 years in the Marine Corps, joining military service during the Korean and Vietnam Wars. I've represented the people of Pennsylvania's 12th congressional district since 1974. I've dedicated my entire life to public service, to fighting for the issues to ensure our country is safe.

As some of you may know, I have been very critical of the war in Iraq. The Administration has pursued bad policy wrapped in an illusion.

And Jim called it before most of us. He wrote the first article in a major newspaper, five months before the war, predicting exactly what was going to happen if we invaded Iraq. Imagine what the debate would have looked like in the Senate if Jim Webb had been there instead of George Allen.

Because we in Congress are charged with overseeing the safety of our sons and daughters when the president sends them into battle, it is our responsibility, our obligation to speak out for them.

It's time to add Jim to ongress.

Contribute today. Give Jim the funds he needs to get his message out to all Virginians.

Jim Webb, through his charisma and leadership, can bring a wide array of voters back to the Democratic party. Thank you for helping him.

Sincerely,

Congressman John Murtha
