Congressman Robert Wexler is serving his sixth term in the United States House of Representatives, where he has proudly represented Florida's 19th Congressional District since 1996. In the past ten years, he has become one of the most articulate and influential Members of Congress, advocating passionately for issues such as improving public education, fighting for a meaningful Medicare prescription drug plan for America's seniors, working to make America safer against terror and enhancing peace and security around the globe.
Congressman Wexler has introduced legislation on a wide array of issues, ranging from strengthening gun control, freezing President Bush's 2001 tax cuts to pay for a Medicare prescription drug plan, comprehensively reforming Florida's electoral system, ensuring that reservists receive adequate compensation while fighting overseas, and protecting the environment, to calling for an investigation into pre-war intelligence regarding Iraq's alleged weapons of mass destruction (WMD). Congressman Wexler has advocated for these issues at both the local and national level, including appearances on numerous television programs such as CNN's Crossfire, Larry King Live, NBC's Meet the Press and the Today Show and ABC's Nightline. Congressman Wexler's reputation as a "rhetorical warrior" and active lawmaker earned him the title of "50 Most Effective Legislators in Congress" by the influential magazine Congressional Quarterly.
Directly following the aftermath of the 2000 Presidential election, Congressman Wexler initiated comprehensive election reforms nationwide and was a leading sponsor of legislation that would modernize Florida's election system; he helped to increase resources for training poll workers and enhanced voter education. Wexler is also working closely with Florida Governor Charlie Crist on his proposal to mandate a voter verified "paper trail" for every vote cast in Florida.
Congressman Wexler also serves as Chairman of the Europe Subcomitee on the Committee on Foreign Affairs, and is a co-founder and co-chairman of the Congressional Caucus on U.S.-Turkish Relations, the Congressional Taiwan Caucus and the Indonesia Caucus. He is also an active member of the India Caucus and the Serbia Caucus. Congressman Wexler has traveled extensively throughout Europe, Asia and the Middle East in an effort to deepen America's economic, military and political alliances throughout the world. He also serves on the Taskforce on Anti-Semitism and has been one of the most influential members of Congress in urging the European Union to fight anti-Semitism and promote an atmosphere of religious tolerance in all EU Member States.
Congressman Wexler has also been actively involved in the Middle East and Israel, where he has been a strong supporter of U.S. engagement in the region as a means of finding a lasting and sustainable peace. As the only Member of the House to attend the signing of the Wye River Peace Agreement and one of two U.S. lawmakers to travel to the International Court of Justice at The Hague, Congressman Wexler has been an outspoken advocate of Middle East peace and Israel's right to self-defense.
Congressman Wexler serves on the House Judiciary Committee as well as the Internet and Intellectual Property Subcommittee. He is the co-founder and co-chairman of the Congressional Caucus on Intellectual Property and Piracy Prevention, and serves as one of the leading voices in Washington for combating piracy and intellectual property violations domestically and abroad. Wexler was also recently appointed by Speaker Pelosi to serve on the House Financial Services Committee where he will focus on finding solutions to the insurance crisis occuring in Florida.
Prior to being elected to Congress, Wexler served as a State Senator in the Florida Legislature for six years. He moved to South Florida with his family at 10 years of age from Queens, New York. Wexler has a B.A. in Political Science from the University of Florida and earned his law degree from George Washington University. Congressman Wexler and his wife, Laurie, have three children.
You are one of my 12. When you have a moment to yourself, read this, and please know that I am so grateful to have each of you in my life. It was difficult for me to decide who I thought would DO this because many people claim to pray, but not everyone does. I hope I chose the right twelve. Please send this back to me (You'll see why). May everyone who received this message be blessed. There are 12 months/ 12 disciples / 12 tribes of Israel / Jesus' birth celebrated in the 12th month.. There is nothing attached. Just send this to twelve others. Prayer is one of the best free gifts we receive. There is no cost, just a lot of reward. Make sure you pray, and pray believing God will answer. May today be all you need it to be. May the peace of God and the freshness of the Holy Spirit rest in your thoughts, rule in your dreams tonight, and conquer all your fears.. May God manifest himself today in ways you have never experienced. May your joys be fulfilled, your dreams be closer, and your prayers be answered.. I pray that faith enters a new height for you; I pray that your territory is enlarged. I pray for peace, healing, health, happiness, prosperity, joy, true and undying love for God. In Jesus Christ's name amen
http://georgewashington2.blogspot.com/ learn about the war crimes Cheney authorized! Pelosi Says CIA withheld info on Acts of Torture http://www.peace.tv/viewVideo.php?video_id=MTEzMg As a leader in congress back in September of 2002 Pelosi did not live up to her leadership responsibilities. If what she saying is true that an aide was briefed months later. The fact is she then had knowledge of war crimes.Ever wonder why she did not support impeachment of Bush or Cheney it is because they were holding this failure of hers over her head. http://wexlerwantshearings.com http://indictbushnow.org 202 225 3001 http://commissiononaccountability.org Please sign the petitions in the websites listed above!Interviewing people like former CIA Europe CIA Operations chief Tyler Drumheller and Former Navy War Veteran Donald Vance will give most of the evidence necessary to hold many of the people mentioned below for war crimes committed! More than 2 dozen warrants for CIA agents exist in Italy (more than 1 dozen exist In Germany) for acts of rendition. 800 828 0498 call congress and tell them you signed the petitions! For some time now it has been an open secret that the CIA has flown terror suspects across the globe and handed them over to governments notorious for their poor human rights record. Critics see this as a ruse to outsource torture seeking to avoid legal responsibility. But not all 'delicate' questioning is delegated to foreign governments. In cooperative countries so-called 'black sites' were set up where US agents had full control but due to fact that the sites were nominally under foreign jurisdiction (like Guantanamo Bay) human rights guaranteed by US law were considered not applicable by the administration. Yet still the agents would assume typically governmental activities like arresting, detaining and interrogating suspects, even under foreign jurisdiction. call congress 800 828 0498 Email Nancy Pelosi at americanvoices@mail.house.

Before I provide the link for the video, let me remind you: * Torture doesn't work in providing information which will keep us safe * Torture actually reduces our national security * Most of those tortured were innocent * They were not tortured in order to prevent terrorist attacks, but to create a false justification for the war in Iraq (by creating a false linkage between Iraq and Al Qaeda) (and http://georgewashington2.blogspot.com/ http://georgewashington2.blogspot.com/ visit the above link to view some of the CIA war crimes authorized by Dick Cheney http://indictbushnow.org http://commissiononaccountability.org http://wexlerwantshearings.com please sign petitions at above websites to help hold war criminal cheney accountabile.

LP III needs witness to bring its video cameras to New York City, to video the "black demonic rain" (a satanic evil spiritual force) that THE FBI caused upon our nation, which plighted our generation.
Brief yourself on our LP III Case, and come with your video cameras, and bring us witness for our generations Cause+
Gratitude unlocks the fullness of life. It turns what we have into enough, and more. It turns denial into acceptance, chaos to order, confusion to clarity. It can turn a meal into a feast, a house into a home, a stranger into a friend. Gratitude makes sense of our past, brings peace for today and creates a vision for tomorrow. ~Melody Beattie
