			<description>&lt;P&gt;&lt;STRONG&gt;&lt;U&gt;HELP HARRY GIVE THEM HELL!!&lt;/U&gt;&lt;/STRONG&gt;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&lt;EM&gt;From the office of Senator Reid:&lt;/EM&gt;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;BLOCKQUOTE dir=ltr style=&quot;MARGIN-RIGHT: 0px&quot;&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&lt;FONT face=Verdana,Geneva,Arial,Helvetica,Sans-Serif&gt;Dear friend,&lt;/FONT&gt;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&lt;FONT face=Verdana,Geneva,Arial,Helvetica,Sans-Serif&gt;I shouldn&apos;t have to write an email like this. It shouldn&apos;t even cross George Bush&apos;s mind to pardon Scooter Libby. Yet George Bush refuses to come out and just plainly tell the American people, if Scooter Libby or anyone else is found guilty of a crime in connection with Patrick Fitzgerald&apos;s investigation, he will not pardon them.&lt;/FONT&gt;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&lt;FONT face=Verdana,Geneva,Arial,Helvetica,Sans-Serif&gt;Last week, myself, and Senators Durbin, Schumer and Biden, sent a letter to George Bush asking him not to pardon Scooter Libby. So far the White House has not responded. Now it&apos;s your turn.&lt;/FONT&gt;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&lt;FONT face=Verdana,Geneva,Arial,Helvetica,Sans-Serif&gt;Sign our emergency petition telling George Bush: You must pledge not to pardon Scooter Libby or anyone else convicted as part of Patrick Fitzgerald&apos;s investigation:&lt;/FONT&gt;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&lt;A title=http://www.giveemhellharry.com/page/m/4wd4gmtfpcx/ZSiggW href=&quot;http://www.giveemhellharry.com/page/m/4wd4gmtfpcx/ZSiggW&quot;&gt;&lt;FONT face=Verdana,Geneva,Arial,Helvetica,Sans-Serif&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://giveemhellharry.com/page/petition/libby&quot;&gt;http://giveemhellharry.com/page/petition/libby&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/FONT&gt;&lt;/A&gt;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&lt;FONT face=Verdana,Geneva,Arial,Helvetica,Sans-Serif&gt;Scooter Libby cannot rely on his close relationship with George Bush or Dick Cheney to obtain the kind of extraordinarily special treatment unavailable to ordinary Americans. To put it simply, a pardon in these circumstances would signal that this White House considers itself above the law. Only swift public action by George Bush will make clear that he takes seriously perjury and obstruction of justice at the highest levels of our government and that he meant what he said about bringing honor and dignity to the White House. &lt;/FONT&gt;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&lt;FONT face=Verdana,Geneva,Arial,Helvetica,Sans-Serif&gt;Sign the emergency petition by visiting:&lt;/FONT&gt;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&lt;A title=http://www.giveemhellharry.com/page/m/4wd4gmtfpcx/ZSiggW href=&quot;http://www.giveemhellharry.com/page/m/4wd4gmtfpcx/ZSiggW&quot;&gt;&lt;FONT face=Verdana,Geneva,Arial,Helvetica,Sans-Serif&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://giveemhellharry.com/page/petition/libby&quot;&gt;http://giveemhellharry.com/page/petition/libby&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/FONT&gt;&lt;/A&gt;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&lt;FONT face=Verdana,Geneva,Arial,Helvetica,Sans-Serif&gt;Thank you,&lt;/FONT&gt;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&lt;FONT face=Verdana,Geneva,Arial,Helvetica,Sans-Serif&gt;Harry Reid&lt;/FONT&gt;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;/BLOCKQUOTE&gt;</description>
