28. My 86 year old dad signed it!
He had read about the dsm and was telling me how pissed he was, so I asked him if he wanted to sign a petition:toast:

3. The number is growing rather too quickly and that worries me
I saw it around noon and they were around a 175,000. I hope no one is screwing around with it.

5. That is what happens when MoveOn picks up a cause.
They can get the word out like few other progressive orgs.

6. Didn't MoveOn just start sending it to thier people today?
That might explain why there are more signatures so quickly...

12. Hell yes and that's not really all either...
Both Conyers and Democracy for America are hosting thier own petitions so God only knows how many people truly support this line of questioning.

Amazing isn't it?

20. Conyers was on AirAmerica Today: The Randi Rhodes Show.
Everyone is pitching-in, not letting our wonderful statesman Congressman Conyers down... the Downing Street Minutes is not going to die anytime soon. Not by a long shot.

UGGGGGHHHHH!

27. How can anyone not love Conyers: Next Thursday Conyers,
along w/others will be walking to the White House to hand-over some documentations with regards to the Downing Street Minutes. He'll be accompanied by an ex-Ambassador, someone w/27 years experience on WMD and others.

Don't you luv Randi Rhodes! She really tells it like it is!

9. I hate to be a pessimist...
But I think the MSM are going to write this off as internet tricks or conspiracy kooks. The denial level of the faithful majority should not be underestimated. To be proven wrong would destroy their whole belief systems. Would you want to be held responsible for the mess we are in? I've grown a little skeptical in the last few years. Nothing has to be rational or make sense anymore.

10. Pessimism is the reality-based way to go these days. I never
thought I'd live to see this shit. Keep waiting for the shit to really hit the fan.

23. Did you sign the petition?
Have you written to the corporate media about this? Have you called your Senators and your representative? Have you sent the Conyers petition to those on your e-mail list?

As was stated earlier, it is up to us to keep the pressure on Bush and his media minions.

It's up to you ,you either let the media and Bushco get its way or you stand up and scream in their fucking faces until they're almost insane from hearing it.

It's simple, no need for pessimism. :shrug:

Or are you suggesting we just give up? Not here at DU my dear darling one, not here!

16. Holy internet(s) activism!
353K and counting!

When I left work about 45 mins ago it was just shy of 340K. I'm thinking 1M isn't out of the question.

24. Strange: refresh screen and numbers go DOWN
I hope nobody is messing with the signatures. If you open the window above and refresh the screen every few seconds, the numbers don't always go up each time. The numbers kind of bobble up and down. I wonder why that is.

Any ideas?

32. Randi called Conyers "Presidential"
Edited on Thu Jun-09-05 09:16 PM by tinfoilinfor2005
I wish he would run for president...it would be hilarious to see how the pugs would try to destroy him trying not to sound racist at the same time.
