January 6th is D-day for us Democrats.
If the election is not challenged, we will never win again. There will always be a close vote, but we will always lose. Rove will tell all his repuke insider buddies that they got away with the electronic vote stealing and they are never going to change the voting process again. They will laugh that they can stay in power forever because no Democrat Senator had the balls to stand up and challenge them. These criminals want to undo the entire New Deal. They want to bankrupt Social Security(privatization) so they can scrap the whole program.

D-day is fast approaching. We have to have a Senator stand up with Conyers or our way of life is changed forever.

20. I will be there standing tall and proud!!!
Thanks to my right-wingnut partner I can go to DC Jan. 6th.. He said that if I believe in this fraud issue as much as I do, I belong in the fight.. WHATS WITH THAT???? He will even take a day off from work to help my mom with our kids.. Sometimes he makes me nuts, making fun of me/us, other times he sits and talks to me about our differences in our view of things, and seems to try to reconcile our differences. Other times I believe we will never see eye to eye on anything.. go figure.

13. You can try
Hilltop Hostel
http://www.hostels.com/en/availability.php
2 nights in a 6 bed mixed dorm is $20.

Or you might try The Washington Peace Center (http://www.washingtonpeacecenter.org/).

Or you might contact the DC Unitarian Universalist church (http://www.all-souls.org/). They were very socially active in GOTV before the election, I'm pretty sure they have members still involved and might know of a network of people hosting (or know somebody who knows). They're not Christian and will not try to convert you to anything.

Good luck!

3. January 6th is the beginning of the Second American Revolution.
Let's just hope that the Revolution is resolved Constitutionally on the floor of the House and Senate. If it isn't I fear that it will be resolved in blood.

7. It's not even a matter of winning, is it?
If they keep cheating the system...regardless of who gets more votes, they will keep stealing it, and yes you are right. They have done a BANG up job of taking over, and if no one has the coconuts to stand up and scream from the rafters, then we can say hello to a one-party fascist, neo-conservative, fundamentalist, dictatorship America.

Or goodbye to it, and hello to Canada/England/Holland/Australia/New Zealand...etc.

Kerry comes with me.

Edited on Wed Dec-29-04 07:39 PM by GetTheRightVote
government that they answer to us always, we will win because that is how our government is structured, for the people to over come all things or persons who would stand in their way.

It is our right as American citizens to run this country not * or any other person who believes their welfare comes before that of the American Public.

We will march with strength and faith because that is how it works in this country of ours, >> We Are American <<, the People, that is why those first 3 words are written first on the THE UNITED STATES CONSTITUTION, "WE THE PEOPLE".

We rule this country yet there are those who have forgotten this golden rule, it is time to take her back as we are guided by this rule. She is ours to rule and command together by the majority not the loud minority. March with Me on Jan 3 & 6 as we take back our home, our land, our country.

10. Eisenhower warned us way back then
to beware when the militry industrial complex becomes more powerful than the government itself. That is exactly what we have now.

Edited on Wed Dec-29-04 07:46 PM by Shalom
because in history, people who became absolute despots, such as Hitler, Mussolini, and George Walker Bushitler, gather so much power for a period of time that they cannot be removed by the populace.

But, as history has shown, Hitler commited suicide and his remains were burnt like infected meat, while Mussolini was hung by his heels like a carcass, and murdered by an angry mob.

17. There is more than one way to skin an elephant
don't you know?

After January 6th, comes the 7th, then the 8th...and every day for the rest of my life while I hold breath!

We can all begin working on *'s impeachment.

We can all begin working at the local level for fair and transparent elections.

18. The 6th isn't the be all end all for me
If nothing earth shattering occurs on the 6th I will continue the fight as will the people investigating and litigating this case.

I hope that Senators will join i the challenge but I understand that that may not occur.It won't be over if they don't challenge.Not by a long shot.

Happy New year

22. We are Recruiting - for Jan 3rd, 4th, and 5th...
If you can be in DC on any of those days and are willing to try to meet with Senators (or more likely staff), please contact us:

thedeanpeople@comcast.net

We are trying to get citizen-lobbyists to have face-to-face meetings in as many Senate offices as possible.

We will provide talking points, materials, and any other assistance we can. Also, no one will be expected to "go it alone."

You can also visit local Senate offices if you can't get to DC. Just contact us and we can advise you on how to get a meeting and what to say once there.
