From NBC's Domenico Montanaro
The Democratic National Committee says it has raised online more than $1.1 million since President Obama's speech last night, according to Communications Director Brad Woodhouse.

In addition to the dollar figure, Woodhouse said 381,000 people had signed a letter in support of health reform to members of Congress.

Woodhouse said the money figure and letter were evidence of "momentum for health reform."

"We expect both numbers to continue to grow," Woodhouse said. "We are particularly pleased at the number of people who are signing the letter to demonstrate their support for the President's plan."

6. Well, they are not getting any contributions from me.

I'm not going to support GMO lovin Corporate America any more than I would support Sarah Palin.

They can both wither on the vine while I build an Alternate Economy to replaced the now totally exposed fraud that is the American Economy.

Good luck Dino's, see you at the archeological dig at the La Brea Tar Pits.

8. I like your user name! Cool n/t

10. I'm a mean one, there can be no doubt.

But I've been known to possess a big heart, and a life affirming spirit.

The Grinch is a creature that has somehow lost faith with Humanity and the staus quo. This is me all over when it comes to the Fraud which we call the American Economy, the wasteful, disproportional spending on the Military Industrial complex, the corrupt banking system that is in reality run by a few Good Old Boys, and a system that promotes the inexorable dumbing down of Americans through lack of education, distractions, the Rat Race, Debt, and manipulated consumption for the benefit of the big corporations.

The Disillusionment that I have experienced when it came to being slapped down for following the rules of Society, liking working hard, innovating software technology, taking on debt, which was in vogue in the past, developing a viable and productive organic farm, and then watching all that destroyed by the Dot Com bubble and Enron.

I vowed to never let the system take advantage of me again, and as my Alias I choose the mythical Dr. Seuss creature, the Grinch, and became Grinchie.

Thanks! I appreciate it.
