When and where is the "No Blank Check!" protest?!?


I tell you, I'd take time off work to go to DC to protest this thing! I'm mad (and frightened) as hell and I'm not gonna take it anymore!

This Paulson proposal is OUTRAGEOUS and what is scarier is that I think it's going to take a couple of million of us marching in the streets of Washington DC to give the Dem leadership enough backbone to stand up to this "Grand Theft Treasury" (as Du'er gin called it).

This is the scariest thing ever! It's a ginned-up attempt at a rushed BANK HEIST by a team of schmucks playing the big con. It's a coup. It's a complete takeover of the wealth of this nation by one person within one branch of government.

If you've ever hit the streets to protest any government action or policy or crime - well, they all PALE in comparison.

So, with with all sincerity, what would it take to organize a protest muy pronto?
