SomeoneDiedForMeToday.com
through MG Paul Vallely (US Army, Ret.), Scott Winchell,
Chalice Jackson, and Patriot’s Heart Network wish to correct an error
relating to Minority Leader John Boehner and any interaction his office
has had with our cause.

Minority Leader Boehner’s office is aware of this petition drive, and in
a phone conversation today, the office conveyed to us that they were
asked by a concerned citizen to review a demand resignation petition,
but never agreed to transmit or support the petitions. The Minority
Leader’s office reports any claims made that they would aid in
presenting petitions anywhere, were inaccurate.

This issue arose last week after the original We Demand Resignation
Petition Letter was first posted. The original petition asked that 4
parties were to receive the petitions; The House and Senate Judiciary
Committees, the White House, and Patriot’s Heart Network. A request by
one of our new partners to add another location to send the petition was
made. The reason for the request was that this individual felt that
the Senate and House Judiciary committees would not be accountable for
the petitions. This key individual stated that Mr. Boehner’s office had
consented to bringing these petitions to the floor of the House, and
after careful deliberation by management of this project, the decision
was made to change the petition and add Mr. Boehner’s name as a
recipient.

The management team at SomeoneDiedForMeToday.com
has now spoken with the responsible party at Mr. Boehner’s office
on several occasions and learned there was a misconception between this
key individual and Mr. Boehner’s Office. The contact in Mr. Boehner’s
Office had not given any such inclination, nor did they convey any
intention of being a partner in the petition.

We believe truly, that all parties acted in good faith and that this is a
minor public relations issue which has now been addressed and rectified
to the satisfaction of all parties. However, SomeoneDiedForMeToday.com
has decided not to remove Mr. Boehner’s name from the petition because
he is the Minority Leader of the House, and is therefore a key figure in
all actions within the House of Representatives. Based on web site
statistics to date, there have already been over 13,000 copies
downloaded. We don’t know how anyone will react, but we look forward
to working with the Minority Leader’s office if they so chose in the
future to champion our cause or otherwise.
