12. it does matter - TAKE ACTION TODAY
it matters because they are going to spin it as 4th or 5th hand, they will spin us as conspiracy freaks, and while many of you fit that description, this is a serious legal memo.

go to www.downingstreetmemo.com and Take Action to do something about it.

We are running a email/call campaign that targets 3 outlets per day. These media outlets are flooded with polite emails and calls asking for fair coverage of the memo. please help our effort.

go to www.dailykos.com and check the recommended diaries section for more information.

5. They barely know about it
And their sites are void on it. The ONLY thing I could find about it being discussed by them I posted yesterday:

10. I think they pretty much ignore it
I haven't paid attention to their message boards, but in looking at the conservative media in general I think they are ignoring it in the hopes that it will go away. The rare times it is mentioned they play down the significance.

We do have one conservative who regularly posts comments at Light Up The Darkness to give his take on our posts. When the memo has come up he tried spinning it by ignoring what the memo really said and claiming it said something else. Actually that tactic is quite a bit like general GOP response to many issues.
