      Dear Mrs. Woolsley I am writing to you as a very concerned US citizen. With the tragedy that Happened in Libya And with all of the Troubling information about how it is a cover-up. I am so angry with our government right now that I want to scream from the rooftops. I feel that what is going on in our White House Is a scandal at the highest level including casualties. Worse than Watergate Because of the Election President Barack Obama has decided not to talk about this topic. I feel this is a fatal error and I believe that the information that has transpired should equal impeachment. I would love to able to contact all of my representatives in California however because I do not have the correct ZIP Code I am only able to Contact you. I do not understand that either. . We need to stand up for the brave Young Men and our Ambassador that lost their lives in Libya this should not have happened the White House was warned a month before the attack. A cable was sent to the secretary of state Hillary Clinton stating that the ambassador Felt the pressure of terrorist moving in and did not feel safe and requested more help and was denied. During the fire fight on our consulate three times the forces asked for more help and were denied. I am a very angry citizen I am concerned that the media is leaving this alone Congress is leaving this alone. AND WORST OF ALL OUR COMMANDER AND CHEIF LEAVING THIS ALONE. it needs to change SO I PLAN ON CONTACTING ANYONE BY ANY MEANS TO BREAK THIS STORY OPEN. I cannot tolerate being lied to by my US government this is a travesty I will be posting this letter on your Facebook site and mine.

    Rep. Woolsey: "George McGovern stood for peace, decency, and compassion for the most vulnerable among us. And he did so regardless of which way the political winds were blowing. From his opposition to immoral foreign wars to his lead role in creating nutrition and anti-hunger programs, he was one of the great humanitarians of the 20th and 21st centuries. America has lost a great statesman and a true gentleman."

    The momentum for marriage equality marches on! A federal judge declares the discriminatory Defense of Marriage Act unconstitutional. It’s time to let people who love each other marry each other.
