More Than Half the Country does Not Have Representation
Oh.... things will get ugly on so many levels.

One positive word for DU, its administrators and members: I AM PROUD OF YOU ALL!

KEEP FIGHTING!

6. Yesterday I suggested a tax revolt by the blue states
but was shouted down becauseit would be "illegal" :-(. Don't think we;re in the revolutionary mood these days.

7. We're still too comfy. When we get desperate enough then more people will
act. :(

8. dumping a tanker of oil on the TX coast
That is what it would take to get their attention. Not a good plan from my point of view. I still want to fight but don't want to wreck the environment to do it.

4. Way over half is not represented.....
Do not forget there are many Republican moderates that are in the boat with us.
