To DUer's
I noticed I BIG drop off in donations after the Democrats in Congress and the Senate folded on Iraq, maybe it's just a midweek waiting for payday thing but don't punish DU for what a bunch of politicians have not done, please

1. Friday, more will kick in

3. As of now,
My last paycheck will arrive on August 1. I have enough saved to get by for a month or so after that.

When I do land that "real job," I will donate bigtime. As of now, I can't take the risk.

13. So did I
Today's events really proved to me how much I need DU, what a resource it is and a place to run when the rest of the world seems to have gone insane.

:hug:s to Skinner and everyone who keeps DU available to us rabble.

8. Whether or not DUers like him, Kos has been excellent on keeping-our- eye-on-the-ball....
... this week.

"Unless you care more about George W.'s ego than the safety and welfare of our troops, you are pissed right now. But there is productive pissed, and destructive pissed. The productive stuff has us redoubling our efforts to clean house in Congress, clearing out the dead weight, the corporatists, and the Republicans. There's the taking over our local parties, bringing new blood and a cohesive sense of purpose to often moribund organizations."


Donate! Fight!

I can't afford to donate whether or not the dems dropped the ball
or not. Aged mom on SS and my own small retirement check doesn't allow for any extras, not even for worthy causes.

12. I think it has more to do
with that *fabulous* Bush economy than it does with Congress.
