Hi to Karizmua and Bana!

I will send the letter out from my email and to others. The more the better....even if it's from a bunch of Canadians who they think live in ice houses and eat seals.

As heated as this got sometimes and I wasn't ready for it, the banter was fine to deal with. I'm a teacher of foreign languages, so I always have cutlure clashes in my courses. Diplomacy is my way of dealing not breaking down into tears or screaming at anyone.

Thanks for helping me along with these threads however, as I'm still having a little challenge navigating. Ex. I go to reply to a forum and I end up in your profile...click on the wrong things often but I'm getting there. A little website challenged lol.

A big shout out and Bana your articles rock! You obviously are a journalist or have the natural abilities. Have a pleasant day and hope to hear from you, Krisanne

The latest:

Online petition: http://www.ipetitions.com/petition/Haiti/index.html please add your name in support of the Bill, forward the link to all your friends.

Thank you for the support. House is currently in recess, the next Session will be November 13, 2006. (We don?t have much time). We need to complete the iPetition by Monday November 6, 2006. The Bill will be brought up under Suspension of the Rules, which means it is a non controversial Bill; they will vote to suspend the Debate rule and amended by unanimous consent.

As you may already know, the Haiti Bill came out of the Subcommittee on the Western Hemisphere chair by Congressman Dan Burton and the House Committee on International Relations chair by Congressman Henry Hyde (Mr. Hyde is retiring this year) and I find out that Congressman Dan Burton will probably be the New Chair for the International Relations Committee in 2007.

In any event, we need to push so that the Bill can be passed this year because starting January 2007 there will be changes in leadership, so this Bill cannot wait.

The following is the site with names and websites of all the representatives http://www.house.gov/house/MemberWWW.shtml

L'Union fait la force,
