While most of the country opposes the Iraq war, Congressman Rahm Emanuel has steadfastly supported it, voting for every single one of Bush's war funding bills. Worse, this Karl Rove "fixer" of the Democratic Party was the principal architect of a strategy to diss anti-war candidates and instead field pro-war Democrats in last year's Congressional elections.

The result: after 4-1/2 years and hundreds of thousands dead, the war continues on despite the overwhelming sentiments of both the Iraqi and American peoples.

Help us take this message to Rahm Emanuel's doorstep:

NOT ONE MORE DIME for the Iraq War
U.S. Out of the Middle East!

12 Noon, Saturday, Sept. 8
In front of Rahm Emanuel's Congressional Office
3742 W. Irving Park Road, Chicago
