This is the latest from the "World Can't Wait" campaign. Sorry if this is a dupe.

Join Code Pink, Katheen Hanna, Bill T. Jones, Michael Eric Dyson, Sunsara Taylor Studs Terkel, Cornell West, Howard Zinn and 5000 others in signing the World Can't Wait Call to Drive Out the Bush Regime!

19 Days Until the Beginning of the End of the Bush Regime! Wednesday November 2, we launch a movement to Drive OUT this regime!
Friends: There is new reason every day that Bush and his whole crew should be driven from office. Bob Herbert, in the New York Times yesterday, referred to them as a "regime" and excoriated Bush for relentlessly punishing the victims in the wake of Hurricane Katrina. While the evidence piles up, the moment for us to act is NOW.

I posted a letter to organizers this week, speaking frankly. "There have been a lot of positive elements coming forward in response to our call, but we are still not yet in the ball park of being able to realize our vision. And yet, as we all know, it is urgently required of us to do just that...Let's remember that we have set out to do the seemingly impossible because it is the only thing that is at all realistic. Only political action that repudiates Bush and his whole program, and that wins millions to this stand, has any chance of stopping a fascist, theocratic remaking of society. This is not rhetoric but a very sober assessment of the stakes of our times..."

New Air America Radio Ads Resume Nationally Monday October 17...Funds Needed Immediately! In addition to the ad recorded by Jessica Blank, creator of "The Exonerated" for stage and HBO which ran last week, Boots Riley of The Coup, Koba of Kontrast, and Suheir Hammad, a poet nationally known from Def Poetry Jam on HBO have recorded ads that will run every hour next week on Air America.

The donations you sent funded ads last week that accomplished this:

We reached people who were waiting a plan to drive out this regime. Visits to worldcantwait.org went up 800%. A thousand more signed the World Can't Wait Call. We have almost doubled the places (to more than 50) where organizers have plans for November 2 underway, and hundreds more people have contacted us to get organized. A very important conversation on Air America has begun, with callers are asking what they can do on November 2, and host Michael Malloy has linked to the website. World Can't Wait initiator Sunsara Taylor has been a guest to great response.

With the Bush Regime engaging in new outrages every day, with our new website, and more plans being announced every day for November 2, the new ads will be even more influential and even more urgently necessary to make November 2 the mass repudiation of the Bush Regime that we need. We have plans to advertise on Comedy Central before November 2, which will take hundreds of thousands of dollars. Your donation -- and that of the friends you forward this email to -- will take responsibility for making this happen.
