(81,091 posts)Glad you're here! It's EXTREMELY and PROFOUNDLY well-deserved! And we have to work hard and long to KEEP it that way! Don't ever forget the machinery the bad guys have at their fingertips to turn the tide. They have ALL the hate radio from coast-to-coast (AND limbaugh on Armed Forces Radio around the globe), they have an entire 24-hour/seven-day-a week cable network that doesn't EVER break for prison documentaries throughout the night and all weekend, they have koch brothers money and US Chamber of Commerce money and shel adelson money and donald trump money and NRA money and kkkarl rove American Crossroads money and MEGATONS of financial and media TNT on their side to help reverse any trend they don't like.
We can NEVER let up. We can NEVER lull ourselves into thinking we've won this. The bad guys are always gonna be there trying to make a comeback. So we can NEVER let our guard down!!!
Now that we have the advantage, we have to go ALL OUT to make sure we keep it!!!! Please note the TOLL FREE Capitol Hill switchboard numbers in my sig line. Please also consider your Congresscritter's REGIONAL offices, where you might find it easier to get through. PUSH THE MESSAGING!!!
If they think you don't care, they won't either!!! They'll go with the teabaggers - who do not hesitate to let them know THEY care!
