A challenge to all you DU'ers!!! (a DSM thread) My 73 signers. |
|
Edited on Fri Jun-03-05 04:54 PM by frictionlessO
Yesterday I added up and verified as well as I could the amount of people I emailed who said they had signed the letter and passed on the info and the amount of those that said they got confirmation responses... 73!!!!
73 garsh dang sigs just because my fat ass decided to email my Liberals list. 73 people who signed who may have never even known (well it looks like they were gonna find out soon anyway but....) 73 people now feel like they've done a little bit on their part to stop the fascism. 73 people braving their paranoia 73 people standing with over a 100,000 others speaking truth to insane powers. 73 people who might decide to get a little more active politically now that there is some hope. 73 people who know a smoking gun when they see one.
and 1 very very happy Lib who feels like a shiny new pink moonbat bubble!! (I absolutely Lurve being called a moonbat!)
My challenge for you all is to top that 73 and top it intensely. Redouble your efforts, every where you go everything you do someone is waiting to hear this news. So go on and spread some hope around. Go on and waken our sleeping progressive masses to battle (they hibernated after the thievery in November). Go on and find those still logical moderate republicans, they surely can't condone this and even if they do keep trying.
This is a moment coming into history, this is not a flash in the pan nor a teacup tempest. This is the moment we have all been waiting for, WE are the ones we have been waiting for, this is the smoking ICBM we have been waiting for.
Folks no more waiting, the time is now and the enemies from within know it. So again redouble your efforts because the more weight we give to that letter the more firepower those that fight for us will have. It really is that simple...
Please post numbers from your emailings if you have some.
Thank you for reading this and it is an honor to be going into battle the next week with this incredible crew called DU.
Peace!
and one last time....
WE ARE THE ONES WE HAVE BEEN WAITING FOR!!

Tireless efforts on your part did not go unnoticed by many DU'ers. I was proud watching you carry that torch day after day BigBear, I've done that a few times as well.
The heart swells to your activism, my brother!
Thank you for the nomination... I dont think I've had one on the Greatest yet, we'll see. Your vote means as much as anything though.
:hug:
edited for spelling again!! (rolling)

16. Awesome!!! Thats all it takes. |
|
The original group that I emailed had 27 addys. 15 of them signed (I haven't heard back from the other 12) and sent it off and between all of them they got another 58 sigs... who knows how many from that 58!! And this was all last weekend as well.
Amazing , eh?? You could be responsible for 100s of sigs by the time your original 20 get done emailing people who get email others.
Thank you for doing that...

That number of authentic and verified individual signers would just freak out a whole shit load of Reps and Sens... Not that 250.000 wouldn't either but, a patriot has to dream ya know!!
Ya know we've knocked the site down several times over the week right? hehehe, I think its all a matter of bandwidth and time.

15 of them signed and sent, and let me know how many they had that had signed. (I asked them to do that in the original email, its fun keeping track of thes things).. so yeah the 15 got another 58 between them pretty much by last Monday. I just didn't have the time to add em all up till yesterday.
Thanks again... hope you still think Im cool even if I dont know 73 people.:P :pals:

15. Now here's a bigger challenge |
|
Congressman's Conyer's House Judiciary office now has a tip line looking for a DSM "Deep Throat". The tip line can be found at: http://www.house.gov/judiciary_democrats/contact2.htmlBut if you can't come up with someone like that and you're getting as many people as you can to sign the letter--I've been trying to get people to agree to send 3 E-mails a day to various news outlets. This site is a great help: http://www.downingstreetmemo.com/takeaction.html#awaken

23. Like Seemslikeadream said, a most excellent first post!! |
|
Your name sounds familiar, like I went to school with you or something... Did you live in England in the mid 80's?
Boy o boy how 'bout that challenge?? If I could be a deepthroat I'd be running into the arms of John Conyers, (or some porn producer!!:) )
Long Live the DSM!!
