dusmcj has presented us an action plan, and I say let's get on board: BOYCOTT

BOYCOTT THE PARTY! When the DNC calls, or writes letters asking for donations, or the DSCC or the DCCC, or the DLC don't send a damned dime. Tell them you are boycotting the party until it becomes a real Democratic Party again.

Let's make a short list of Democrats whom we will support, on the provision that NOT ONE DIME of that money be sent from those Dems to any other Democrat seeking office.

I'm on board.

Not another dime.

Not another second of my time.

Not another sign in my yard.

Not another doorbell rung.

Not another gallon of gas spent driving people to polls.

No.more.

1. BAD Idea - the alternative is a million times worse...

:thumbsdown:

A MUCH better idea is to field more principled, progressive candidates.:thumbsup:

2. I boycotted 2000 - given the last 9 years I"m not sure that was wise....

I figured how much damage could one person do - we have checks and balances.

3. It's a start, but we can't stay in the wilderness forever.

I have a plan, but you're not going to enjoy it:

4. The GayTM certainly is closed. Don't ask, don't give.

5. A better idea is, tell them you won't do all of the above, until they amend the HRC act

after it becomes law
