Kerry, Clinton and Gore! The Big Three...call us to ACTIVISM!!!
Edited on Tue Jan-17-06 08:31 PM by KoKo01
Get your "one page news reports, signs and banners and bumper stickers, your library drop offs and your demonstrations together!" THIS IS A CALL TO ARMS!

Whatever you can do out there this week and weekend to support "OVERTHROWING BUSH" .....please DO IT!

I know that "ACTIVISM" on DU has been strong for years, and all of you have been "faxing, phoning and e-mailing your House and Senate Reps and you've purchased those "magnetic bumper stickers from CAFE PRESS and other sites and you've been out there working your butts off.

But...maybe it's time to RAMP IT UP? More flyers to the Library "outside stacks where the Community Info sits in bins before you walk in...and what about CD's of Gore's Speech in Starbucks or "one page flyers with IMPEACH BUSH INFO?"

Think about where you "frequent" and wear "latex or rubber gloves when you use your printer and "staple gun" to "tack up the BUSH LIES" all over your neighborhood. Use Precautions...like Condoms and they can't trace your fingerprints. But, write up one page SUMMARIES of TALKING POINTS and DISTRIBUTE!

What do we have to lose? We have SO MUCH TO GAIN???

This WEEKEND COMING...we need the BIG MO for GORE'S SPEECH and COUNTER ACTIVITIES! Think about using the proper precautions like you would for "Safe Sex" and you won't go wrong.

Just GET THE MESSAGE OUT! Think of Tom Paine and Paul Revere! Our DEMOCRACY IS AT STAKE! GET THE MESSAGE OUT! (but take precautions, because in BushWorld we can't be "too" careful.)

6. TRUE! We have a WEEK to "pull Down Alito" on his own LIES!
And, already Roberts has voted with Scalia and Thomas...how much longer before Bushie's MAJORITY is in place with the "Supremes?" It ALL STARTED WITH Clarence Thomas...rammed through when Anita Hill was dissed and trashed and ground under their jack boots way back just before Clinton took office.

It's been "DOWNHILL" since. Give a FACT SHEET about ROBERTS...it can't hurt.

8. Great Point...to see them all on the SAME PAGE! Fight BACK...it's all we
asked of them. The differences could have always been fought over in the "back rooms" if they JUST HAD ALL STOOD TOGETHER BEFORE!

Thanks!

3. I think there are a number of Demcs who would call for resistance
to Bush's agenda to corrupt the rule of law and the Constitution. We know that Sen. Feingold has courageously and tirelessly spoken out against the Patriot Act and the attempt by this Administration and certain Repubs in Congress to take away civil liberties. He is another good Dem who is fighting for us.

I am proud of Vice Pres Gore, Sens Kerry & Clinton for speaking out. We need a reminder every now and then that there are people who understand that you don't fight repression and suppression of liberty abroad by getting rid of it at home. Kudos to them all.

9. Events on Tues Jan 31 and Sat Feb 4th/World Can't Wait
I was ready to march in the streets today, but the rain put a little damper on my enthusiasim.

I listened to Gore's speech through the telephone last night (my BF held his phone up to his TV), this is one of the few times I missed having unplugged my TV 4 years ago.

Looks like World Can't Wait is organizing some marches, time to start emailing this to everyone/every group I know:

http://www.worldcantwait.net/

BUSH STEP DOWN, and take your program with you!

If you heard Al Gore’s speech Monday, and feel the gravity of what he is describing


TUESDAY, JANUARY 31, 8pm EST:
In large cities and town squares across the country, we will rally one hour before Bush's address. At 9:00 PM let the world hear us as we symbolically drown out Bush's lies bring your own noise - drums, pots and pans, musical instruments - your voice. Let taxi horns blare and church bells ring, as we bring our own state of the union message: BUSH STEP DOWN! Find a protest in your area.

SATURDAY, FEBRUARY 4, 11:00 AM, Washington, DC:
We will take our demand to the White House. This regime is immoral, dangerous, and criminally indictable. Bush Lied. Bush Spied. Bush Step Down. 2006. 2008. Too late. Turn your outrage into mass political action. Buy a bus ticket now.
