I live in two states, but i vote in fla but also live in nj...
i went to a Democratic meeting last night ..in the most conservative area in the state of nj...
the Democratic group was formed 4 months ago in a very republican area...
the group was formed 4 months ago with 9 members! they only had one meeting until last night...
Last night over 200 people showed up!! as well as two Congressmen!
Never before could they have even thought of getting one congressman to show up!! Its that republican of an area!
well Not only were over 200 in attendance..they were over 200 and very vocal!!!!!!!! and very engaged!!
Cindy Sheehan has awakened the beast!!..people are coming out now and saying what they think...
I went hard at the two congressmen about getting involved, and said to them both..they will not stop this movement, so they better get involved or move out of the way..and they will be in our dust!
I was very calm and very sincere..i told the one congressman ..the train has left the station..get on board, or be left behind! i gave them both the resolution for the DSM inquiry i had written down and said they better get on board with that as well...i was very forceful and said it in front of many so they had to respond to the resolution and inquiry....they promised they would get involved in the inquiry! One of the Congressman said he wanted to sincerely get involved with Cindy and Camp Casey..he even said he would fly down to Crawford if they were there next weekend...well Camp Casey will be broken up wednesday..so i said they will be doing the bus tour..and he said he wanted to help them anyway he can...
well this morning the congressman had his right hand person call my home to get the Phone info for Cindy's people in Crawford..
So the good congressman followed through in his promise to me!!
The reason i am writing this is..we need to personally engage these Democratic congress people..they need to know we are behind them and we mean business..and they will not be deserted if they stand up to the plate..we need to get out in our communities..and talk and be heard..we all have so much knowledge..and truth is knowledge..
This computer is great..we have all learned so much, but now we need to take what we know to the people!
i stood with about 30 people last night and asked if any of them had heard of PNAC..there were blank stares from all, so with a reporter next to me ( whom i educated last week on PNAC) i spend 1 1/2 hours educating these fine folks..
People are awakening..now we need to take our knowledge to them... Like someone once said( ha!)
IT TAKES A VILLAGE!!
well it does...
go find your village..and spread your knowledge...Cindy opened the door for all of us..she planted the seed...now we must water and care for the seeds and spread them far and wide!!
