67. Well.....Write you wimpy representatives
And then tell them you won't vote for them if they vote for that. Write them and tell them how you feel about Bush. Send them articles that show how bad he is perceived. When they get the idea that they are going down with him....then they won't vote with him.

You see, the real problem isn't conservative Dems. Its the system. Its lobbyists. Its money in elections. Its Corporate power. And its the mad desire of those in office to stay in office.

THOSE are the things we have to change. Regulate Lobbyists. Get public elections. Regulate these fucking corporations. And if people have to take to the streets to demand it then it will just have to be done. We got rid of the Vietnam war that way. We got civil rights rules imposed that way. And we can get fairness between government and its citizens that way. But first the citizens have to realize how much trouble they are really in. They don't yet. They need to be educated. And that is a long, difficult, grass=roots struggle. Hell, most people don't even vote because they are so disgusted by the present system.
