88. It would be totally useless
Edited on Mon Jun-27-05 08:51 AM by Mass
Screaming on Fox or MSnbc is a total loss of time. Anyway, if the better we can do is to expect our representatives to do the job for us, it is a total loss of time.

We need a multi-layered approach:

- House : done
- Senate : starting, needs to continue
- grassroots: needs to continue their work. Their work is NOT to get their senators to speak. It is to say to the world that they care. They have done a wonderful job with Conyers petition, but it is far from being finished.

Once these three elements will be in place for a while and will continue with an equivalent force, the media will be forced to follow. Right now, they do not feel the need and we should only blame ourselves.
