Open Email to Congress:
Dear Members
of Congress,
There is public talk that congressional voting on US
involvement in the Syrian war is starting to involve the usual political "pork"
situation. For those who may read this and are less conversant with political
maneuvering, it means that if you do a favor for me, I will do one for you. A
specific example would be a White House offer to a specific Sen. that if the
votes for US involvement in the Syrian war, he will receive in return some sort
of gravy, such as a construction grant to build a bridge going nowhere.
Let me assure you, Congress, that the public is not so gullible on this
situation, as they have in previously been for much less important congressional
actions. If you vote for US involvement in the Syrian war, no matter how many
local goodies you may hand out to voters, they will not support you for your
reelection.
