Dear Mr. Bush,
The campaign is over. And despite my feelings about the outcome, the "stump" speeches supporting the war can now cease. Those who support your mission will continue to do so...and those who do not will not be swayed.
Today, several Americans lost their lives while having lunch in Iraq. It will be a few days before we know their names...and several days before they will return home. People on both sides of the world will grieve for them.
Families and friends don't need to hear about the mission. I can guarantee that in the days to come, a democratic Iraq on the cusp of freedom will be far from their thoughts as they prepare to grieve the loss of their son or daughter, husband or wife, mother or father, lover, or friend.
So, stop campaigning and simply express sorrow at the loss of these extraordinary people who died "on your orders."
