My everlasting thanks goes to you for taking such a courageous position on the House vote (H J RES 64) authorizing the use of United States Armed Forces against those responsible for the recent attacks launched against the United States. 

It is my firm belief that we must respond to this terrible event in a manner that considers the conditions from which it arose and does not lead us into a downward spiral of retribution and revenge. 

You will probably not hear from everyone who supports you on this issue, but know that there are many of us.
