    Surely you can find a stronger Anti-War organization than the well-named but parochially-Princeton "Peace Voter 2010". 


    Try Googling:


    United for Peace and Justice,


    AntiWar.com,


    Iraq and Afghanistan Veterans Against War,


    for starters.  Each of these is nation-wide, truely anti-war, and in dire need of publicity and support. 


    Let Karzai talk to the Taliban, and let's get our a$$es out of Afghanistan, now!


    "...power alone cannot protect us, nor does it entitle us to do as we please. Instead, [our Founding Fathers] knew that our power grows through its prudent use; our security emanates from the justness of our cause, the force of our example, the tempering qualities of humility and restraint."

     United States v. Reynolds (345 U.S. 1). STATE SECRETS PRIVILEGE
    Just yesterday 2/9/09 the OBAMA administration gave the same secretive argument given by the Bush administration, in a lawsuit against the company that was the 'travel agent' performing 'disappearances' of innocents to 'secret prisons' and to countries that would torture these poor victims.

    FYI - The entire States Secrets privilege is based on a fraud perpetrated on the Supreme Court; both the Secretary of the Army and the Army's top lawyer lied in the sworn affidavit that the Court used to grant the 'privilege'.

    see Wikipedia:
    http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/State_Secrets_Privilege

    excerpt:
    "As a footnote to the founding case establishing the privilege, in 2000, the accident reports were declassified and released, and it was found that the argument was fraudulent, and there was no secret information. The reports did, however, contain information about the poor state of condition of the aircraft itself, which would have been very compromising to the Air Force's case. Many commentators have alleged government misuse of secrecy in the landmark case."

    Obama said in his inaugural speech:
    "Our Founding Fathers, faced with perils we can scarcely imagine, drafted a charter to assure the rule of law and the rights of man, a charter expanded by the blood of generations. Those ideals still light the world, and we will not give them up for expedience's sake."
