1. if we already signed at Conyers site - we shouldn't also sign here, right?
I don't want to cheat like the Republicans do.

3. Yes, I'd like to know this as well.
Edited on Thu Jun-09-05 02:44 PM by clydefrand
Just went back to read the site above. It does say your name will be added to Conyers' letter. So I would say we shouldn't sign the moveon.org also.

Please let us know if you know otherwise.

It went forward zgain, but when it goes up shouldn't it stay up?

21. maybe they are auditing as they go
On Conyers Blog I read where freeptards were bragging about signing multiple times, they are attempting to corrupt the petition. It makes sense that all of the names and signatures will be gone through to remove 'contamination'. Anyway, that is my best guess,

5. I'd say if you've signed it at Conyers site...
probably not a good idea to sign it on MoveOn...don't want to appear to be stacking the vote like Rethugs do, now do we :)

17. The MoveOn site links you to Conyer's so people should
remember if they already signed it.

ok. I'm getting excited. Finally, all the groups are organizing where it counts. Right on the floor of the house, with the black caucus leader.

I feel like this week I got my country back. GOd bless these dems.

39. 62 mill voted for B***, and we've got half a mil right here!
Edited on Sat Jun-11-05 03:13 PM by jazzjunkysue
How cool would it be if we could get it to a million? Wouldn't that sound good? If we could get 500,000 in 15 days, we should be able to clear a mil by the end of June, right? After all, when it started, 500,000 people didn't know about it, and now they do, and they are spreading it around.

Let's watch the Senate and house ignore 1,000,000 signatures!

Go, Go, Go, Johnny, Go, Go, Go!
