American Torture

American Torture: From the Cold War to Abu Ghraib and Beyond, by Michael Otterman

Upcoming Senate Vote on Climate Change

Dear Senator Kerry,

I just read the article in today's Washington Post about the upcoming Senate vote on the climate change bill. Please, please, please vote no on this bill. Do not approve a cap and trade system. It is a bad idea, and bad for your constituents.

I admire the stand you took against the Vietnam war when it was not such a popular stand to take. I hope you'll show similar courage in the debate about the climate change bill.

Clean energy, such as wind power generated off the Cape, is a good idea. A cap and trade system is poor public policy from beginning to end. Please do whatever you can to prevent it.

Thank you,

Steven Greffenius
