Hello. I'm Staying At DU
I will keep fighting this immoral, incompetent, intransigent administration with every ounce of strength I can muster. It's the least I can do for my fellow Americans and for the country that I love.

I am humbled by the presence here of those who stay and fight every day.

We will never, ever give up, even after the tide has turned.

6. Me, too.
And, I have the following goals:

One, get Jeeni Criscenzo elected to Congress (we have to take back Congress in '06);

2) Maintain two Democratic Senators from California in D.C. (hopefully, DiFi will retire, and we can elect a REAL Democrat; and

3) continue raising $ for PFLAG, NARAL Pro-Choice America, Americans United for Separation of Church and State and Independent Media, such as Free Speech TV.

Sometimes our arguments get heated, sometimes we will not be able to all agree but we all have the same main goal.

Take Back Our Country!

13. Good deal! Bravo! However, don't be too hard....
on those who feel like giving up and vent on the DU. This space is also a safe place to do that.

The way the spin is so constant even when YOU KNOW what reality is, it's hard to fathom that so many others are drinking the koolaid and if you aren't hyper aware it's easy to do some simple thing that makes you feel like you aren't doing enough and then soon it's the slippery slide down the slope into who-gives-a-shit? The amount of spin that is out there on any given day is like falling into Lake Superior - it's almost always cold enough to give you hyperthermia before you can battle your way out unless you have someone to throw you a line.

So if you have some fighting spirit left, help those who feel like giving up to find their way back.

15. Count me in
with every force there is an equal and opposite reaction. resistance is futile. I stopped fighting, but not stopped giving. peace.
