Living in Wyoming is wonderful except for the fact that most of the citizens are republicans. I received this email today from Barbara (I love to bake cookies) Cubin:

Dear Darleen:
Thank you for sharing your thoughts with me regarding our action in Iraq. I appreciate your comments.
There have arisen claims that the Administration, or President Bush, were intentionally misleading regarding reports of Weapons of Mass Destruction (WMD) in Iraq. These claims are absent any factual evidence. On the contrary, in Iraq we have found mobile bio-weapon labs, Atropine stocks and chemical suits -- all harbingers of WMD programs. There is no question of Saddam Hussein's history of developing WMDs, his use of WMDs against his own people, his sponsorship of terrorism, and his continued intentions to develop WMD capabilities. Additionally, the published findings of the 9-11 Commission have confirmed that Iraq and al Qaeda had friendly ties. Iraqi officials even offered Osama Bin Laden safe haven in 1999.
We must also keep in mind our action was provoked by Saddam's continued violation of the United Nations Security Council's numerous resolutions and his violation of the terms of the cease-fire that ended hostilities after the Gulf War. And the mass graves, torture chambers and stories of brutality that have come to light are even more barbaric than we could have imagined. Clearly, the president was right to oust Saddam.
I nonetheless have serious concerns about shortcomings in our intelligence community, which is in need of updating if we are to face new and dangerous threats to national security and the safety of the American people. In December of 2004 Congress enacted the most comprehensive intelligence overhaul package since World War II. The law will improve intelligence sharing and coordination among federal agencies, without which we cannot expect to produce accurate intelligence estimates. Be assured I will keep your views in mind as Congress oversees the implementation of this law and considers any additional intelligence reform measures in the 109th Congress.
Thanks again for sharing your thought with me. Please keep in touch should you have any additional questions or concerns.
With warm regards,
Barbara Cubin Member of Congress
I don't even know where to begin. I am so irate that all I'm doing is calling her names.
Some help addressing this pack of lies would be greatly appreciated.
thanks.
