I'm sorry, but I just can't listen to any of them anymore . . .

[OneBlueSky]

pundits or politicians, Republicans or Democrats . . . I'm at the point where unless they're willing to stand up and tell the truth, the whole truth, and nothing but the truth, I just don't have the time or the interest . . . and right now, the only three who seem to warrant my attention are Democrats John Conyers and Dennis Kucinich and Republican Ron Paul . . .

as for Kerry, Clinton and the rest of them, until they start taking on BushCo head-on, with both guns blazing, nothing they say is of any interest to me whatsoever . . .

that's how bad it is, and that's how crucial it is for Democrats to stop playing politics and start getting real . . . this country is in one hell of a mess, and anyone who isn't pointing that out and trying to do something about it is a waste of time . . .

3. Gripe

Complain, loudly and often, by fax, email, phone call and letter. Force them, by your feedback and that of others, to adjust their stance so that they represent you, and not special interests.

Either that, or learn how to do the stiff-arm salute and OBEY.

There's no opting out in this battle, unless you leave the country. Either you fight back, or you submit.

4. Don't forget Tubb-Jones and Slaughter n/t

5. No need for the "sorry" part, OBS!

They've been sounding like the "grownups" in the Peanuts cartoons for years now. They are incapable of even "yes" or "no" answers. They've earned our scorn--and it was HARD WORK.

:hi:

6. I got a fund-raising call from the DNC a few weeks ago..

I always give (a little) when they call, but I'm so fed up now I just couldn't bring myself to do it. I told the caller that when the Dems in Congress get a spine, I'll start donating again.
