A One-Week reprive for the Guy James Show! MIRACLE NEEDED!!!
In spite of my earlier posting;

http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=show_mesg&forum=104&topic_id=4943942&mesg_id=4943942

It looks like Guy has ONE MORE WEEK for a miracle to occur.

What about it? Anybody here have a miracle to spare?

6. This CAN all be done $3 at a time.
If we had merely 4000 people out of the 350,000,000 in the USA who would send $3, we'd be done with this problem.

3. if I had the money
I would send it to Guy James. I contribute almost every month.

Come on you people out there with a few bucks.

If I can contribute and I am a disabled person trying to live at poverty level income, so can you.

If everyone contributed $5.00, it would make a difference!

Please, help Guy James stay on the air!

:kick:

11. ok, here's $50 more...
amazon was able to put through my last contri.... with so little media available to progressives, it's stunning that Guy James is scratching for funds, just stunning(?)
(i'm thinking get rid of telephone, computer and any further involvement in this bush extravaganza: 'nothing fail like success when working for the devil' says that fighting the busheviks and losing really isn't losing at all, as the busheviks themselves will be the most frantic actors in the drama when it's clear who the devil really is, and what his victory means....we've become a loathesome culture and swine swim in pearls; maybe hunter s thompson knew it just isn't worth fighting for, or living for)

8. I challenge all DUers to give something to Guy this week
Edited on Sat Oct-01-05 04:55 PM by Utah_liberal
I am also a guy who does not have money to throw around. I'm in debt, my family is outgrowing my small apartment, and we need a house. I sent in a small amount to Guy two months ago, yet I heard my named mentioned when Guy's producer was reading a list of donors to the show two weeks ago. If I got a mention from my little donation, then I know there's not all that many who donate. Again I will contribute a small amount today, and hope that my fellow DUers will give whatever they can afford. Thanks Ben Burch for spearheading the funding for Guy. As a subscriber to Ben's Thom Hartman archives, I really appreciate all he does for liberal radio.

15. Sent $10.00 this afternoon.
Just need a bunch of people to do the same - or more sending in $5.00.

Do not want to lose Guy's show. Speaking of - I'm tuning in now.

If you've never listened, do it. You'll hear what we're talking about.

25. Well, I don't know if $50 is a miracle
but I sent it anyway.

C'mon folks, Guy is the real deal, and the longer we keep him on the air the greater his chances are to be picked up via syndication.

31. That area
of Florida really, really needs a liberal voice on their airwaves. I love Guy's show. I sent a few bucks a few days back. Wish I could afford more. Good luck.

32. Donated.
Guy has a way with deluded RW callers that I would like to see continue. This reprieve is good news. Thanks for letting everyone know, benburch.

33. Thanks to you and EVERYBODY.
If we all give a little, it can do so much.

Sort of like FDR's "March Of Dimes", but adjusted for inflation!

35. I love Guy too, but I have a question.
I sent a small amt. but it's the best I can do. I want to know a bit more about why Guy can't get on at a better time? I remember listening to him starting at 3PM I think, now it's Sat night??? That's got too be the worst time slot I can think of!

Can't we get him on a different station at a better time?

Have we contacted AAR? He'd fit in GREAT!

It just seems that we are fighting a losing battle with this stupid station in Fla.

Sorry if I sound like an idiot here, but I really want to keep Guy on the air where lots of people will actually hear him!

37. Here's my guess. He's on a pretty RW station in Florida. They
probably TOLD him what slot he could buy.

Apparently he sent a resume or something to AAR and didn't get a response.

Now, with AAR picking up Hartman and having some new syndication service, it might be time for us DUers to start an email campaign to get him picked up.

38. I am all for that.
This guy (no pun intended) is really something. He hits home to me. Like you said, maybe we should organize a campaign to get him picked up...
