Thank you for the lovely Christmas Card. I hung it on my refrigerator next to those from my closest friends and family. I put it on my refrigerator because I was really, really proud of you this week for standing up and speaking your conscience.

I was thrilled that you found the courage not only to label the “security fence” in Israel an apartheid wall, but to call the war in Iraq the greatest blunder ever made by an American President.

See, at one point in time, I was pretty upset with you, so upset, in fact, that I took a civil disobedience arrest to protest the naming of a $4 billion nuclear submarine after you. So when I read of your latest adventures in conscientious objection, I wondered about that arrest, and if things like that affect you.

I’ve attached a story that the Connecticut Law Tribune wrote about it, and I wanted to send it to you as my Christmas card, to inspire us both that there are still so many more words of truth that need voicing.

So, from the deepest part of my American soul, I wish you gratitude and fortitude.

Peace,

Pimpin' Presidents refrigerator magnet of Preznit JC currently holds up the lovely Christmas Card he sent me, (below), trying to hit me up for a donation. Sorry, I'm flat busted.
