Randi Rhodes just asked her 4 million listeners to donate $1.00

[jean]

to Black Box Voting - http://blackboxvoting.org/

Randi said she gives her listeners live stream for FREE (yes she was kind of yelling) and this is all she asks of us today - go give ONE DOLLAR to BBV.

Over, and out.

[benburch]

1. Doing it now!

Get off your asses and do this folks.

4. Hell, even I can afford a buck!

... more if my budget can muster it! Come one folks, step up!

[BlueEyedSon]

5. Actually she asked for $5 per, she figures only 1/5 of us will do it.

:)

BTW, don't just give $1. If their processing fee is high, they won't get to keep much of it!

[jean]

10. she started at five bucks and ended a a buck after recalling she has

4 million listeners - = $4 million bucks

[Gloria]

22. Actually,,,that's 4 million listeners on the INTERNET, she said...

So, her total must be really great!!

[jean]

25. isn't that profound? And the internet makes it so easy to get the money

to BBV - time is of the essence!

[tech3149]

6. I might be poor but

it was worth $10 to me.

[City Lights]

MzPip

[skypilot]

14. GOOOOOOODDD question!!!!!!!!

[luaneryder]

26. Didn't she post earlier that it was a chance it

would be hacked? Soon's it's back up I'm in for at least $25.

[rainy]

17. HELL yeah. this is great!

sometimes Randi can be good to us.

[Chiyo-chichi]

19. I guess mine went through. Error = transaction approved?

An error occurred while trying to report this transaction to the Merchant. An e-mail has been sent to the merchant informing them of the error. The following is the result of the attempt to charge your credit card.

This transaction has been approved.

[Irishladdie]

21. You should get email saying it was approved!

[Imalittleteapot]

29. Just gave $25. Mods - please

put this thread on the front page.

:yourock:

[Gloria]

20. Caller helping Bev says they need $50,000 NOW to start actions...

Randi said that while Limpball charges, she doesn't. BEGGING people to give $5 or even $1.....Just announced that blackboxvoting.org is either being hacked or is on overload....

Keep trying!!!!!

[keith the dem]

23. THIS NEEDS TO BE PUT ON FRONT PAGE

It's gettin hit hard and will not work now. Everyone must do this in the next day!

[in_cog_ni_to]

24. Nominated! Everyone! Nominate this for the Homepage!!!! n/t

[Suziq]

27. I Gave $25

I just can't sit here and do nothing!

[Talisyn]

28. Done! Gave $25

Count the vote!

[smirkymonkey]

30. Donated $25 and e-mailed to friends.

Every little bit helps - this is important!

[jean]

31. while bush joyously bombards Fallujah today and all weekend WE

can be pounding this issue and get some results!

[jobycom]

36. No kidding, eh? Does he remind anyone else of that guy

in Reservoir Dogs, getting off to cutting people up while old music is playing in the background?

Let's bomb him (figuratively, SS) while he slaughters another generations of kids and creates a new generation of terrorists.

Hey, we'll lose, but at this point I just want a fight. I'm tired of watching our candidates fight and lose against this guy, I want to get involved in this one. Let's see him take on DU and Bev Harris.

And Will Pitt, and Skinner.

And Jobycom! (Fill in your own name!)

[SammyWinstonJack]

47. Maybe we won't lose

In any case, we have to try, which we are! They awaken a sleeping giant with this election.

[jobycom]

50. No, you're right. We'll win, either way

Whether we get the presidency, or just make it harder for Bush next time, we will accomplish something. Before or after the election. We might wind up with President Hastert if we are slow about it, but I have a feeling about this. This may be the Watergate we all knew was waiting for us.

[SammyWinstonJack]

59. President Hastert

Oh no!

[wiggs]

32. I gave 25 this morning. nt

[vademocrat]

34. I'll give later tonight - can't get in right now...

"A little patience, and we shall see the reign of witches pass over, their spells dissolve, and the people, recovering their true sight, restore their government to it's true principles. It is true that in the meantime we are suffering deeply in spirit, and incurring the horrors of a war and long oppressions of enormous public debt......If the game runs sometimes against us at home we must have patience till luck turns, and then we shall have an opportunity of winning back the principles we have lost, for this is a game where principles are at stake." Thomas Jefferson

[jean]

49. thanks for your sig line - Elizabeth Edwards provided us with inspiring

words today. I sent this all over the place and printed it out as a small poster on cardstock.

[vademocrat]

52. You're welcome - it's kept me sane this week...

I missed Elizabeth Edwards message - can you post it for me or give a link? I love her & can't imagine that she can be thinking of all of us with what's going on in her life right now. She truly is an amazing person! Thanks

[jean]

53. she posted a short message with this very quote - I don't have the link

[vademocrat]

57. Wow! That's pretty cool - I got it from a biography of Jefferson -

it's from a letter he wrote after the Sedition Act was passed in 1798. The witches he's referring to are the puritan fundamentalists from MA & CT. Funny how times change... :shrug: Thanks again!

A little patience, and we shall see the reign of witches pass over, their spells dissolve, and the people, recovering their true sight, restore their government to it's true principles.

[jean]

61. let me search for it . . . here's her post

http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=show_topic&forum=104&topic_id=2604461

You are on the same wave length she is - the same bio, I think!

[Nana]

90. How do you send by Paypal? n/t

[jmatthan]

35. Cannot someone contact Michael Moore

to back Bev and Randy in this fantastic mission.

I am sure the Black Caucus will also get out a huge support for this, if asked.

Also will somone get Dennis Kucinch behind this. He will articulate it best of all American politicians and it concerns his Honme State.

Howard Dean must also be pitched into this battle as he was supporting Bev in her battle.

I think Kerry should be given a clear message that his actions are WRONG!!!

Money is not the only thing - it is the strength of the voices who are shouting. The money and Bev's organisation will ensure that they do their job with the right fervour.

Some of you may remember my post to the Forum just before the election which I sent to the Kerry campaign and many leading organisations to organise the exit poll at every electronic voting machine precinct - not one responded to it!!

That was not hindsiight but foresight!!

[flpoljunkie]

37. Hell, contact George Soros!

[jean]

38. someone just asked if it is true Soros is offering a reward for info

on computer voting fraud - in the neighborhood of $10 million. I don't know if it's true - let's find out.

[mcg]

81. A link for emailing George Soros:

http://georgesoros.com/index.cfm?Fuseaction=SiteMailForm

[SammyWinstonJack]

48. Kerry's actions were wrong!

We turned out for him, he promised to fight, we believed him. Now this is our fight.

[DS1]

39. Most stations provide streaming for free, it's just about a requirement

before legitimacy can be obtained. Randi can go jam it. I'm tired of hearing about her yelling at her listeners.

[PittLib]

45. Right ...

why yell? There is no reason.

[Dem2theMax]

86. There is no reason to yell?

Wanna bet? His name is *.

;)


Forgot to add: $10.00 in snail mail going out tomorrow. It's all I can afford. Actually, can't afford it, then again, can't afford not to. Know what I mean? :)

[PittLib]

92. Hell yeah!

Thanks for getting my sarcasm! Oh! I'm still yelling! Can't stop! ;)

[Booster]

40. Done & kick. I said I wasn't going to donate another dime to

anybody, but I think this is important. We'll see.

[txindy]

41. I just donated

Rather more than $1, although her suggestion is an excellent one. Only a buck from each of her listeners and BBV.org is set!

[leesa]

42. I just gave a hundred today. It is tax deductable if that helps.

She also needs volunteers.

[4MoreYearsOfHell]

43. Done...

Go get em, Bev...

[tinrobot]

44. I sent $50 last night

We need to take back the system

[PittLib]

46. Gave $50 - small price for a little honesty in this so-called democracy nt

[Shopaholic]

51. Bump

Come on DU--pony up the dough.

[Renew Deal]

54. I sent $20

It's worth it for this country.

[samwisefoxburr]

55. Just donated $25!

[TexasSissy]

56. To investigate the black box voting fraud thing?

Does that mean the DNC with all that $$$$ we contributed is not going to help w/that?

[JPace]

58. Already made my check out but just how many

listeners does Randi have?

Nice to know something is being done about this,
I feel better already.

[jean]

62. I think she just explained that her radio listeners alone, not including

the live streamers, number more than those for CNN and MSNMB combined - she mentioned 4 million. But I'm not clear if this number is internet listeners or radio listeners

on edit - okay she just said she thinks there must be at least 10 million listeners...needs to get the numbers for us

[myomy]

67. 4 million

.

[awgoodkitty]

60. just sent 'em $25

Thanks, Randi Rhodes! You rock.

[Poll_Blind]

63. I kicked in my $10- please donate RIGHT NOW! n/t

[prof_science]

64. They got my $23

stoopid transaction fee. I would have snail mailed it, but I want them to have money now. We'll see what they do with it, I'll send a check later...

66. Mailed my $25 about an hour ago.

[RobertDevereaux]

69. Gave $50, kick!

[AngryHoosier]

70. Thanks, just sent $2 for us through PayPal. n/t

[FighttheFuture]

71. Sent $40, I hope they find the shit to smear on these criminals...

I have no illusions of it unseating Bush or the redshirts, but if it can show to more and more the taint, and the theft of this country, maybe things can change without a civil war.

then again... there are a lot of fools out there!

Wouldn't it be interesting if 56 million people decided to not pay taxes?

[DemoTex]

72. $1: BIG BIG MISTAKE BY RANDI. I TRIED TO CALL HER.

Randi said donate a dollar by credit card. When I logged on www.blackboxvoting.org to donate $100, I found out that every credit card donation, no matter what the amount, incurs a $4 "convenience fee" that is paid by BBV. So it takes a $5 donation for BBV to make one dollar. There is an address for checks (and cash?), but Randi was talking credit card donations.

I don't know if BBV takes a loss on $1 donations by credit card, or if their fund handler blocks those donations, but it bears looking into.

[sleepyhead]

73. Just sent $50. n/t

[Generator]

74. It's tax deductible,baby!

$50-in the mail tomorrow.

[Digit]

75. I am behind this....going to grab my cc and hit the site.

A VERY good cause!
Bev, you are awesome!

[Bread and Circus]

76. I'm in for a $100 !

[OneTwentyoNine]

77. The hell with that....I'll send $25.00

Ok look,we can't sit still on this. This investigation into these machines needs to go full ahead. I'll gladly accept whatever findings they come up with but I DON'T want to be in doubt after every election.

David

[JSG]

78. Done for $30

[Bluebear]

79. I did $25.00 myself

[bushwarcriminal]

80. Another...

$25 just added.

[magnoliamouth]

82. NO JOB, but gave $10

OK, y'all -- I have NO JOB and my unemployment ran out LAST MONTH. And yet I found $10 to give.

If you're lucky enough to still have a job, then you can give MORE.

[wiley]

106. $50 because you care

They are already trying to take down Specter in the Senate because he said it might be hard to get a rabid right wing ideologue confirmed as a Supreme Court justice to overturn Roe v. Wade. These people have nothing else to do but steal votes, change textbooks and make everyone think that 55 million or more votes is insignificant.

How come hundreds of thousands of people can call their Senators and Specter's office complaining and WE DON't HAVE something similar? What are we waiting for? We have to be all over them NOW!

I'm a moral Christian and I voted for Kerry. Don't believe the hype of the big business evangelical movement. Jesus' vote is not for sale either!

Yet another stolen election?

:mad:

[Hoosier]

83. Done for $10 --- KICK

KICK THIS FUCKER!!!

[Insider]

84. done for 25

great cause. i was thinking the same thing yesterday. turn the rage into money for a true cause. this might be monthly donation...

democracy ain't free.

[TheDebbieDee]

85. I gave $10.00 : ^ )

I would like to post on Randi's Message Board that I gave, but for some reason her board tells me I'm not allowed to make a post or start a thread.

[fairyduster]

88. Hi

I have been a RRMB member for several months. I had to go through all the registration, email, etc, confirmation before I was allowed on the board.
Alot of neocon trolls have been able to get on the board lately to gloat after the second theft of an election but, it's interesting some times.

[TheDebbieDee]

94. Thanks for the info, Fairyduster.

My name over on Randi's board will be TheDebbie. Please say "Hello" if you read one of my posts.

[mistertrickster]

87. I'm sending in 25--and don't forget to mention DU

96. Already did it at the urging of my man Mike: $25. nt

[Kenergy]

98. I gave 15.00

Sorry, I would've given more, but Bushnomics hasn't been kind to me.

[StrongbadTehAwesome]

99. I've never listened to AAR, but this was worth $20 to me. n/t

[neonplaque]

100. **** Uh, wait-- did anyone notice ***

If you only donate $1 via the website, that entire $1 is eaten by the 'convience fee' of the credit card processor!!!!

So give $2 to ensure BBV get's a buck!

[riffraff_va]

101. DEMOCRATS LISTEN UP!

If you don't force the media to report this nonsense, and allow George W. Bush to cheat democracy again, then YOU ALL ARE PUSSIES!!! YOU ALL ARE COWARDS AND DESERVE EVERY SECOND OF HELL THAT GEORGE BUSH IS GOING TO GIVE YOU! DO YA'LL THINK THAT A REPUBLICAN WOULD ALLOW JOHN KERRY TO CHEAT DEMOCRACY AND STAND BY SILENTLY! NO! RIOT! MARCH! PROTEST! DO SOMETHING BESIDES COMPLAIN ON THE INTERNET! REPUBLICANS ARE LAUGHING AT YALL! THEY ARE CALLING YALL "WEAK"!

WHAT ARE YALL WAITING FOR?!! ANOTHER MICHAEL MOORE MOVIE BEFORE YOU DO SOMETHING! I'M NOT JUST ASKING, I'M BEGGING TO YALL TO GET A BACKBONE!!!

[amazona]

102. i'll mail my donation

I realize the value of sending the dollar today online for effect but it's easier for me to just mail it. From their page:

If you want to save us this fee, you can mail a check to:
Black Box Voting
330 SW 43rd St
PMB K-547
Renton, WA 98055

Let's all do what we can to get this ball rolling.

[Kurovski]

103. sent more than $1 the minute after

she brought it up on her show, and the servor was already overloaded.

Donating to blackboxvoting is the single most important thing we can do this very minute.

[peekaloo]
