We Have To Do Something, We can't Just Let Them Sell Our Port Security to Dubai! We, meaning DU and the Democratic Party HAVE to organize and DO something!

we were in the streets about 10 million strong to protest the Iraq invasion. Look at how much good that did. This is minutiae compared to that.
Ed: if the longshoremen strike, and that develops into a general strike, we MIGHT get their attention. Sadly, even in this event, the MSM will still be broadcasting Bush propaganda 24/7.

2. Call and write your Congresspeople |
|
I've done that. I've also talked about this with most folks I meet. Maybe we should encourage people who voted for Bush to call, too-I know that might make a difference to my conman, who is a repuke. If the ports deal DOES go through, I think it is vital that we start educating the former Bushbots on what is really happening-a lot of them are waking up to the fact that the repukes don't give a rat's behind for them, and they are mad.

3. Maybe Homeland Security will build a blast wall inland from our ports. |

I still live in the belief that this thing can be stopped. If not, I despair of being able to do ANYTHING to this bunch. I hope my Democrat reps can stay on the same page on this one.

5. I'm all for getting out in the streets en mass. I feel that this may |

just get pushed thru. This morning on CNN they had a long interview with Peter King and he kept saying that he wanted the Dubai P and O to do a investigation to demonstrate that there would be no breach of security...excuse me but, WTF- HOW IS THAT ANY BETTER???
This cannot go thru- 'HELL NO'!
