The people revolt: Americans tell 22 lawmakers 'no' to military action

Published: 12 hours ago
By Garth Kant and Chelsea Schilling

Americans are slamming at least 22 members of Congress with thousands of phone calls and emails, urging lawmakers not to approve a military strike on Syria – by a margin of as much as 499 to 1.

A national debate is raging on Twitter. Tweets and statements from members of Congress – both Democrat and Republican – show tremendously strong opposition to President Obama’s call for an air strike on Syria:
Rep. Jim McDermott, D-Wash., tweeted, “Calls and emails from my constituents is 100 to 1 AGAINST getting involved in Syria. The American people are speaking.”

Rep. Elijah Cummings, D-Md., said 99 percent of the calls his office oppose an attack.

Rep. Andy Harris, R-Md., said, “Constituents who have contacted my office by phone or mail oppose action in Syria 523-4 so far.”

Rep. Thomas Massie, R-Ky., tweeted, “My phones are blowing up, and an overwhelming amount of constituents oppose U.S. military intervention in Syria.”

Rep. Matt Salmon, R-Ariz., tweeted, “Syria constituent calls 489-2 against.”

Rep. Shelley Capito, R-W.V., said of “about 1,000 calls to my office, maybe 5 are for.”

Rep. Vern Buchanan, R-Fla., said calls and emails to his offices are 600 to 9 against striking Syria.

Contact Congress and let your lawmakers know how you feel about authorizing President Obama to strike Syria.

Rep. Tim Griffin, R-Ark., tweeted, “FYI: Received 75 calls/emails from constituents today so far on Syria. All 75 opposed to military action.”

Rep. Steve Chabot, R-Ohio, said he is getting swamped with phone calls and on-the-street comments from constituents telling him to oppose a strike on Syria.

Rep. Rand Paul, R-Ky., said, “I’m told the phone calls are 9 out of 10 against a strike in Syria, from my constituents in Kentucky.”

Rep. Ralph Hall, R-Texas: “I have received hundreds of calls and letters from constituents expressing strong opposition.”

Rep. Michele Bachmann, R-Minn., tweeted, “My office has been inundated with constituent phone calls and emails about Syria. Virtually unanimous opposition to military intervention.”

Rep. Jason Chaffetz, R-Utah, tweeted, “So far about 500 emails regarding Syria. 499 say NO and 1 say YES go to war” and “Hundreds of calls to our Provo and Washington, D.C., office. So far not a single call in favor of bombing Syria.”

Rep. Paul Gosar, R-Ariz., tweeted, “The phones in my office are ringing off the hook and mail is flowing in. Almost all of the people are opposed to intervention in Syria.”

Sen. Mike Lee, R-Utah, tells WND his office is hearing the same overwhelming opposition to intervention.

Rep. Brad Sherman, D-Calif., said, “I don’t know a member of Congress whose e-mails and phone calls are in favor of [bombing Syria.]”

Rep. Steve Southerland, R-Fla., said 96 percent of his emails and phone calls are from constituents who want to express their opposition to military action. He said, “Overwhelmingly, we are hearing pushback from our citizens against military intervention in Syria.”

Rep. Jeff Duncan, R-S.C., said he’s heard no support from his constituents for striking Syria: “I have not had a single person, not a single person, in over 92 Facebook posts just a little while ago in a question we posed, having a single constituent or a South Carolinian saying let’s go to war in Syria.”

Sen. Angus King, I-Maine, said “a very high percentage” of the constituents contacting his office have been against U.S. involvement in Syria. He estimated that 90 percent of more than 1,000 calls and emails from Americans have been urging him not to support intervention.

Sen. Bernie Sanders, I-Vt., said, “I can tell you that in my office, the phones are bopping off the hook there. And almost unanimously people are opposed to what the president is talking about.”

Rep. Ted Yoho, R-Fla., told the House Foreign Affairs Committee hearing he and his constituents say “not just no, but heck no!” to Syria intervention.

Rep. Justin Amash, R-Mich., tweeted, “I’ve been hearing a lot from members of our armed forces. The message I consistently hear: Please vote no on military action against Syria.”

Meanwhile, U.S. men and women in the military are taking to social media to anonymously demand that the Obama administration refrain from sending them to fight Syria.

Uniformed military members posted photos of themselves on Facebook with paper messages covering their faces, declaring:

• “I didn’t join the Marine Corps to fight for al-Qaida in a Syrian civil war.”
• “I didn’t sign up to kill the poor for the rich. No war in Syria!”
• “Obama, I will not deploy to fight for your al-Qaida rebels in Syria. WAKE UP, PEOPLE!”
• “I didn’t join the Navy to fight for al-Qaida in a Syrian civil war.”

WND’s own unscientific poll now shows Americans are overwhelmingly opposed to military action in Syria by a 78 to 1 ratio.

SHOULD CONGRESS GIVE OBAMA AUTHORITY TO ATTACK SYRIA?

• Yes, the U.S. should do everything possible to topple Bashar Assad's regime

• Yes, House Speaker John Boehner is right: Only the U.S. has the capability to stop Assad

• No, there are no vital national security interests at stake in Syria
  
• No, the U.S. had more support going into the Iraq war, and look how that turned out

• No, both sides are evil – but the current regime is better than what's coming if it's overthrown
  
• No, Americans are overwhelmingly opposed to new overseas military intervention
  
• No, let's pick our fights intelligently. This would be a weak, ineffective, face-saving, limited bombing of Syrians to maintain our credibility
  
• No, Obama still hasn't provided proof it was Assad who used chemical weapons
  
• No, this Syrian misadventure threatens to put the U.S. on a very perilous collision course with Russia, China and Iran
  
• No, this will be the beginning of World War III

Syria: Calling Out Congress Posted by Joe Wurzelbacher on Sep 4, 2013
We at JoeForAmerica are dedicated to advancing cutting-edge issues, news, reports and opinion in the world of conservative America – as well as the organization and promotion of aggressive grassroots activism. As a part of our always vigilant efforts to keep our readership fully informed, we’ve contacted House and Senate Republicans in an effort to determine where they stand on the president’s requested military intervention in Syria. This undertaking is a huge task, but we at JoeForAmerica believe a decision to use direct U.S. military force in the Syrian civil war as punishment for an alleged chemical weapons attack by the Syrian government, carries with it ramifications which deserve the country’s full participation. Here is the current tally of Republican Congressional members stated positions… The following House members are opposed (at the time of this notification) to the president’s request

We will keep this list updated as our Congress Critters continue to weigh in, but it takes a true groundswell to have an effect on our elected officials. This is where you come in: It is imperative you contact your Congressman or any Congressman – especially those on the fence in this matter – and urge them to join the side of caution and restraint where it concerns US military force in this region. Polls are consistently running five, six and as much as ten to one against the President directly intervening militarily in Syria. The chances of escalation are high and will at minimum exacerbate civilian suffering and embolden Al Qaeda – and in a much worse case, draw Iran, Russia or even China into active involvement in the conflict. First step is to be heard is by voting in the poll at JoeForAmerica: http://joeforamerica.com/ (scroll down on the right-side to vote) Then begin contacting members of Congress and urging their active resistance to this flawed and avoidable intervention. As this effort progresses, we’ll continue to bring you up-to-date reports and movements by the Administration and members of Congress where it concerns this critically important matter before us. And don’t forget to check in often during this 24-hour news cycle to www.JoeForAmerica.com to keep apprised of any new developments.

Thanks; The Staff at JoeForAmerica
