I've posted this in the DU Activists group area as well as in the General Discussion. So far I've had one response on each board. I realized that some of those that post here, sometimes do so exclusively and don't post or read often in the other areas. So I am posting this here too, in the interest of finding others that may be interested in helping...

In other words, you ladies are special and get a post all to yourselves! :P


(This is also posted in the DU Activists corp--repeating here as I know everyone doesn't visit that board)...

We can see yet another example of who and what Roberts is. Are we going to just allow the MSM, as well as other media outlets to ignore or sit on this story? I don't think we should.

I would like to propose that we blast the media the same way we did when Sinclair was planning to air the negative documentary on Kerry. For those that have already given up and accepted Roberts as the newest member of the Supreme Court,may I offer that we still have an opportunity here to get the word out. Let's not give up yet, there's entirely too much at stake...

Please weigh in over the weekend with your thoughts on this and whether you would be willing to participate in a media blast, demanding coverage of Roberts memos.

Thanks--have a great weekend!

1. I feel like we've got to fight it

To paraphrase my fiancee in a post here, if Roberts is a middle-of-the-road guy whose first priority is the law rather than ideology, why the hell would Bush nominate him to begin with?

2. Wow--your fiancee makes an excellent point...

...one I wish more people would take notice of.

Thank you for responding, I appreciate your interest in this. As soon as I organize what we will do or at least a start date, I will be in touch with you!

3. Thank you!

All this "but he's not that bad" defending of him on this very board is really aggravating. Compared to what? He's a Bushbot, through and through. Yeah, so um, let me get this straight..We should let him get through without a fight, or with only some token resistance, so that we can conserve our energies for the REALLY BAD next appointment Shithead is going to get.....

NOOOOO!!!! :banghead: :argh:

Fight this one with gumption now so those assholes know that WE MEAN BUSINESS!! STOP MAKING DEALS WITH THESE FUCKERS!!! ESPECIALLY NOT WITH MY RIGHTS!!!!

Why is that so hard for some progressives to understand?

4. Sorry, I'm seeing this so late, ccbombs--

just had to compliment you and thank you. Thank you for expressing your support for us making our voices heard. Thank you for saying what you have here. My feelings through and through.

What many 'so called progressives have said here (on DU), in regard to this is beyond inexcusable.'

Thank you for your support. I will be in touch...
