Moscow visa help....Media!!!

[zebrazeb]

Hello everyone,

As many of you know, Moscow has stopped issueing visa's for our loved ones....I am tired of this waiting, and no one writing to anyone in the governement is getting any results...

So I am hoping WE can use our free speech to it's fullest by starting a writing campaign to the media.  It real is a lot simplier then writing the government, and if we get enough people to start letting the media know what is happening, maybe we can actually get some publicity, and then who knows...

So all I am asking, is for people to log into CNN.com, and going to ask CNN, and simply ask them what is going on at the America Embassy in Moscow, and why are they not issueing visa's.  If enough of us start asking the question, then surely there will be some people at CNN (and elsewhere) getting interested..and who knows....

Thanks for reading, and helping..

Dennis

I made the mistake of replying to your message after the outrageous first reply which launched a justifiable tirade.  Consequently my reply to your apeal for assistance was buried in the deluge of condemnation of the bigoted reply.

I will repeat my reply.  If we let the effect of this tragic act of terrorism limit our rights than the terrorist have won.  It is our duty to fight to maintain the rights of Americans that make this the country that we love.   Keep writing your senators, congressperson, the Whitehouse, the State Department and the media...  

I have participated in citizen action campaigns in the past and they can work.  Just ask the NRA.  Whether you agree with them or not they have very effectively protected the unique right of Americans to bear arms.

Please for goodness sake let's not go off on an argument on the 2nd amendment.  The point is that citizen action can make the govt. listen.

If you provide the forum with a copy of your letter I for one would be happy to repeat a copy to my representatives.
