Well, this is interesting...
Edited on Fri Sep-21-07 05:04 PM by Mythsaje
I posted my "We aren't just going to dry up and blow away" on the Edwards blog and it received its first vote...to the negative. I know there are freeper types hanging out there. How couldn't there be? They're always quick to vote down some of my more pointed posts.

This one? I would expect as much of anti free speech freaks.

I can live with it, I suppose.


In case you haven't seen it (it's on the Greatest Page), here's a teaser...

--snip--

Since the beginning of the Bush Administration, several different political organizations have sprung up, ones dedicated to telling the truth about what's going on out there in the wide, wild world that the corporate media cannot or will not. This latest debacle with MoveOn.org is a prime example of how Americans will rise to the challenge and support any organization that has the courage and the foresight to raise a ruckus when confronted with deception and doublespeak.

But the list is rather long. Some organizations are older than the Bush Administration, and perhaps they don't get as much press, but they're just as vigilant, just as serious, and at least as competent in ferreting out the truth behind the pretty lies.

Sometimes truth is harsh. Sometimes it's dirty, smelly, and sometimes it just lies there on the front lawn reeking. Those of us on the left (and, no, we're not, by any means, "far-left--unless, of course, you're so far to the right that you're hanging off the edge of reality by your fingernails), are not going to be silenced by the condemnation of the Republicans and Democratic quislings in Congress.

Here's the link to the whole thing.

2. I just gave you a thumbs up and a comment.
I see no reason your entry should have received a negative vote. It is great. Hmmm.....
