"The World Can't Wait"
“If not now, when? If not us, who?
11 days until Bush's State of the Union address.
15 days before we protest at the White House.”

A full page ad appeared in the NY Times this morning signed by all sorts of wonderful people.

2. This movement really needs our support.
They are providing us with an opportunity to speak out loudly. To the extent that we ignore this call we are acting as silent passive bystanders complicit in the crimes being committed before our very eyes - exactly the response this criminal administration hopes for and has been getting thus far. Silence is consent. Lets get noisy.

We have been dutifully contacting our would-be representatives in this would-be democracy to what effect? We are confronted with one outrage atop another. Now we're looking at decades of Alito and responding with the usual compliant impotence. Our efforts to work within the system like good little citizens seem to be getting us nowhere. I really think it's past time for us to get,shall I say,ORANGE.

4. Thanks to WCW for spending the big bucks on advertising
in the NYT and on Air America. We really ARE in a state of EMERGENCY.
