Petition Demanding the Immediate Resignation of U.S. Senator Dick Durbin
June 17, 2005

On June 14, 2005, while speaking from the floor of the United States Senate in Washington D.C. U.S. Senator Dick Durbin of Illinois unjustly compared the United States military forces in charge of Gitmo to the brutal, murderous, and barbaric regimes of Hitler, Stalin, and Pol Pot.
We, the undersigned, strongly disagree with Senator Durbin’s disgraceful characterization of our U.S troops. We believe that Mr. Durbin’s disparaging statements were patently false, and not representative of the overwhelmingly heroic and courageous behavior of our military forces at Gitmo, and elsewhere in the world. We believe that our troops are the finest and the most courageous military force that has ever existed in the history of the world.
Mr. Durbin, through his original remarks, and his subsequent refusals to modify his statements, or apologize to our troops, has committed a blatant act of treason in a time of war, is guilty of sedition, and has openly taken sides with the enemy combatants, with whom we are now at war, thereby endangering our troops, and emboldening the enemy that seeks to destroy our nation.
For all of these reasons, we the undersigned do hereby demand that Dick Durbin immediately resign from his position as United States Senator of Illinois.

Lake Villa, IL 60046

Sincerely,

The Undersigned
