[Peace-discuss] Re: Fwd: [Peace] Fwd: Protect Consular Rights; Live Web Chat 2p Mon 8/4 w/ CCR's Vince Warren

[Jenifer Cartwright]

Hi Folks,
This exchange belongs on peace-discuss. I sent it to peace b/c of the info about the web chat earlier today. I actually also sent it to peace-discuss but it bounced for some unknown reason. Will try again (I hadn't heard the joke. Good one, but all too true).

The old story is that a wrongfully imprisoned man in a foreign jail 
is demanding to talk with his Ambassador.

The jailer tells him that is easily accomplished, you can indeed talk to him,
since the Ambassador is being confined in the adjoining cell.

Dear Jenifer,
There are two important things we invite you to do today:
1. Contact Your Representative About Protecting Consular Rights
Contact your Representative immediately to protect your consular rights and the life of Jose Medellin, a Mexican national who will be executed by Texas authorities on August 5, 2008.  Jose Medellin and 50 other Mexican nationals were denied the right to visit with a Mexican consular official while in detention in the U.S.  This right has been routinely denied to many detained under the Bush Administration-including many of CCR's clients-and has prevented foreign authorities from protecting their own citizens from the Bush Administration's torture, rendition and other human rights violations of non-U.S. citizens.  Contact your Representative now with the easy to use form on our website.
2. Live Web Chat with CCR's Executive Director Vince Warren (Monday, August 4th at 3PM EST)
The Firedoglake website and the Alliance for Justice are coordinating a live web chat on Monday as a part of their series of discussions on the rule of law. Log in with your questions on Guantanamo, the U.S. government's abuse of power, the first 100 days of the next presidential administration, or other related issues and get live, first-hand responses from Vince Warren.
WHEN: Monday - August 4th 2008, 3PM EST.  
WHERE: Firedoglake Website
HOW: to participate in Mondays's chat, go to the Firedoglake website with this link and register for free.
