Big baby.
Us old f**ks have been fighting, and ....<br />Big baby.<br /><br />Us old f**ks have been fighting, and losing, this battle since my Mom was a kid! <i>(And she died twenty years ago.)</i><br /><br />It's closer now than it was then. When you're up against All The Money In The World, you have to be prepared for a long hard struggle.<br /><br />To me, the problem is the system: We need to get corporate money out of it. That means taking over the Democratic Party from the ground up. Bring ten friends to the next meeting of your local Party organization. You'll be the majority. Work your way up.<br /><br />Look, we won Round One in NOV 2008. Round Two is NOV 2010, then Round Three is NOV 2012. We have to let the Dems know that they don't own our votes: Do the right thing or you're OUT! Single-payer universal national healthcare is the number one issue. If they can't do that, we fire them.<br /><br />Democracy is not a spectator sport. Ya done good with that petition. Thank you! Every little bit helps build momentum. I posted some links to groups that are on the front lines on this. Also, how to email Obama & your Congresspersons:<br /><br />"Demand Single-Payer Healthcare Now" 5/8/09<br />"Swiftboating National Healthcare" 5/11/09<br />"Whoring Health Care" 5/30/09<br /><br />Look how long it took for child labor laws, women's suffrage, gay rights <i>(still workin' on that one),</i> civil rights --They JUST apologized for slavery!<br /><br />The important thing is to always try to do the right thing, and don't let the bastards grind you down. You're the Good Guy. Don't forget it!<br /><br />Carry on, soldier.<br />.Cosa Nostradamushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07025789936148098576noreply@blogger.com
