If you bitched regularly, you should give him 100. If you bitched daily, I think 500. is about right. If you bitch constantly, I think the max is 2400.

If DU honors this request, Russ Feingold's money woes are just a memory. That and 20 Hail Marys and you're good to go. http://www.russfeingold.org/about/biography.html

1. Saying someone is whining, is whining.
Edited on Sat Oct-02-10 02:35 AM by RandomThoughts
If you assume some statement from someone is that, then could they not say that could be the same for that comment about a view of what they are saying?

And I will have beer and travel money and many great experiences.


Saying someone is whining is a claim to know what a person should have or will have. It shows thoughts of parent thought, and thinking other people are children, a superiority claim also.

3. I didn't say 'whining', I said 'bitching'.
I'm too busy diagramming the first sentance in the body of your post to do much else for a while.

You write in beautiful Norwegian.

14. It'll be close
because the wingers are dumping mega bucks into tv ads. Also, the big churches are organizing for Aiona, the republican candidate.

There are layers of support in different communities too. Hawaii, so complex yeah?

Anyway, have a great night, hope you sleep well. aloha.

16. A possible explanation:
Some decisions that have been made poorly, being the beacon of light for this problem that America is facing today.

It has been overwhelming to me that confirmation of who are hell bent proving that he can work both sides of the aisle.

As Senator McCain has said, about solutions and wishing for and hoping for solutions, not as competitive, scary thing, but one in five jobs being created in the trade sector today.

A 'word salad' generator? Certainly is 'random.'

21. According to your criteria, I figure I'm not obligated to cough up any dough
as I've always been a staunch supporter of Russ Feingold - going so far as to participate in 'draft Feingold' efforts in '08. Besides, I've got my hands full trying to get the guy in my avatar elected: Joe Sestak (R-PA). If I were financially able, however, I would be donating to ALL the close races Hanover Pfist.

22. hey thanks for helping as you are able.
Seriously though, you haven't grumbled? Not about Russ, but about Obama, the Democrats, etc.?

23. In that regard, my conscience is clear
I haven't so much as mumbled a cross word in the quest to win/retain Democrats into elected office. I even came perilously close to earning the dreaded granite cookie when I posted a thread expressing my disgust with so-called 'purists' who advocate staying home on election day or voting against the Democratic candidate to 'teach party leadership a lesson.'

8. Rec for no other reason then you're trying to raise money for Feingold
But...earlier today I kicked in 20 for Russ, De Fazio and McAdams.
Earlier in the week in was Sestak
Last week Phil Hare (My congressman Ill)

Wish I could give a lot more, but there are so many candidates that deserve my money and I need it for me too.

11. I hear you!
We've cut way back on everything but are learning to grow our own veggies and do without things we never thought possible.

We're each doing what we can, main thing right?

9. I'll give Russ something $25 can't buy from me--my vote.
It's priceless, or should be, but it is all I can afford now.

10. I'm back to work after 17 months of unemployment
Russ is getting $25 from this New Englander today.

Russ VOTED AGAINST THE PATRIOT ACT! Back in those dark ignorant days of Bush playing the fear card on America to justify his treasonous unnecessary war of aggression.

That makes him a Dem worthy of this progressive Democrat's support.

Maybe you can write an appeal to DU next week. Congratulations on getting back to work- it's been a long dark night, for sure.

aloha.

15. Your OP makes no sense but Russ does!
I'm busy here keeping Peter DeFazio in Congress, but I'd help Russ if there was money to do so, even if the OP is confusing as hell. First the perjorative 'bitch' is an editorial choice I'd not make, second, bitch about what? Show me the person who has not complained ever in life, righteously or otherwise, and we can talk.
I think anyone who has ever said anything even slightly homophobic owes at least $5,000 to the Trevor Project or another organization that assists gay youth and prevents the suicides and suffering that is created by the vicious lexicon of the heterosexualist community.

17. ok
If you think that is confusing, then I'm sure you're right. ;)

We have a bumper sticker here: No help, no grumble.
