***On September 30 join the National Call-in Day and tell your Senators and Congressional Representatives to vote against the 2010 Defense Appropriations bill. When making this call, tell them to stand firmly against escalation and to co-sponsor Congressman James McGovern’s H.R. 2404 that would require President Obama to provide an “exit plan” from Afghanistan. For list of co-sponsors:

Growing numbers of Senators and Congressional Representatives have expressed concerns over US policy in Afghanistan. It is hypocritical to publicly raise so many questions, while funding the Pentagon for another year of war.

1. Kick

It is really disgusting that Polanski threads dominate the board and this post is about to fall off the front page.

2. Yep, I've got 2 'take action' posts up and haven't had a single person type in 'done'.

3. This is the first I have heard of this National Call-In Day. Piss-poor advance notice to

those of us who would love to have gotten the word out.

I'm going to call now. Thanks for the notice, sinkingfeeling.

4. Thanks. I received about 6 emails from the various participating groups about it, just didn't

post here until today.
