CODEPINK MEMPHIS: Dear Mr. President

Tuesday, April 17, 2007

Dear Mr. President

The singer Pink has a song that has very moving lyrics, that reflect, I think, the reasons we all are fed up with the Bush Administration. This is our country, our reputation in the world as to what Americans are all about. It is time to let our cities, states, country, and the world know, that We the People are not about greed, war, and intolerance. Get involved!
