20/20 Moral Vision Initiative
Senators, great deference is due a President in his choice of a Cabinet.
However, no deference is due to torture or to those who enable it and
those who condone it. Alberto Gonzales is unfit for the office of
Attorney General because he has enabled and condoned torture, making it
an official policy of the United States. The stain on our country
remains from the actions of the President, Mr. Gonzales - from whence
Abu Ghraib sprung. Yet you chose to appeal to the "political center" by ignoring the "Moral Center". Simply stated your "Yes Vote On Gonzales Condones Torture."
As you chose safety, others chose justice. My future support in terms of time and money, a commitment of 20 hours of time and $20, will go first to those candidates and causes who unequivocally oppose torture. I will continue to vote for all Democrats, but my active support in terms of you six will be another matter.

Please send your name and location to twenty20moralvision@yahoo.com. Feel free to pass this on.
I will forward this initiative and names to Salazar Six.
