I finally did it...since I got my old network cable, I got back my credit at the UConn Co-Op, turned around...and bought Lies, and the Lying Liars that Tell Them, a F&BL@R.
I'm in love. I'm in Chapter Four and can't stop. This is incredible. It's everything I've been saying all these years; you can't defend thier positions when you actually get facts.
It's why I thank myself every day that I'm in the fact party rather than the fiction party.
Point/Betterpoint...OUTSTANDING!

that Al Franken stepped up to the plate when so many others were hiding in the dugout. The ball is rolling now, and lots of others are joining in. Good on Al!

12. Franken will be in Seattle tomorrow night with... |
|
...Molly Ivans. As much as I love Molly, I'd much rather see Franken rip that anti-christ, the Great Whore of Babyon Ann Coulter a new hole!

14. Get as many people as possible to read Al's book ! |
|
If there is one book out there that Joe Shmoe on the street should read to set him straight about the mess we're in, it's this one. Once you're done with your copy (provided it's not a l337 signed copy like mine), pass it around to your friends, and encourage them to buy their own copies to loan further. Really, I think this book by itself is good enough to be able to change someone's mind about the BFEE.

Jen -- You just quoted my absolute FAVORITE line out of the book!!! I swear I was on the floor LMAO for half an hour after I read that! I used to get so pissed off at those stupid rightwing bastards I could hardly speak. Until, like a gift from above, Al's words were delivered unto me O8) ...
"I fucking hate those Rightwing motherfuckers!" :evilgrin:
I've adopted this as my mantra ... I'm sure Al won't mind. :)
