Are you calling for a nationwide general strike? When you say "lets get to work" - what exactly are you suggesting? I'm there. I know I'm not alone. What is your plan?

6. I hear you demwing....

The only choice we have is to organize outside of the usual methods and vote them out. We have to
get all Dems to vote every time, without fail. We need to ride the current wave from Wisconsin into
the 2012 elections. Now that everyone can see what the rethugs are about so clearly we need to
keep the movement going. Talk to your friends an neighbors, I know it sounds trite, but thats what we have to do. We need to be the Anti Tea Party!!! Now is the time to strike while the iron's hot.
It wont be easy and it might take 20 years, but we must fight. Or give up and move to Europe. :scared:

Fuck that!! This is my country. I wont let the likes of rush, sean, bill and glen take it w/o a fight.
:hippie: :kick: :patriot: :bluebox:

4. Well said yet again!

Thom you are doing some great educational pieces lately,. keep it up, way up!

If the USA is full of passive corporate automatons then we get what we deserve,. otherwise more people should be up in arms and fighting this last push for the fascist corpo-feudal non-democratic wet-dream of the obscenely wealthy.

Where are the people in the streets and the general strikes? Please report some more historic precedence soon, the history of general strikes in europe for example, as it seems many people here in America have little to no knowledge of successful general strikes in recent history. The truckers and farmers in France for example will bring the cities to a full stop, when ever they are pushed around. But alas, the media in america has had a campaign of anti-french propaganda for as long as I can remember,. sad given the french history in the creating of modern America.
