Send * a christmas card
Dear Mr. President,
A holiday greeting from some voters who care,
About things like land and water and air.
We don't mean to spoil the good holiday cheer,
But your election has prompted some Christmastime fear.
In your first term, you had a bad hobby,
You'd bow and you'd scrape to the energy lobby.
You'd follow the plans of Vice President Dick,
And the fumes that resulted made our children sick.
The Senate, so wise, called your plan full-of-gas,
But now you're determined to make it all pass.
Like a big Christmas dinner, you'll keep adding more pork,
Till every last Member has some on their fork.
Your bill is not wise (indeed, couldn't be dumber),
It endangers our nation, to fill up the Hummer.
Yes, you won (by 2 mighty per-cent),
But do not misread the message we sent.
None of us voted for dirtier air,
Or payouts to Oil, so grossly unfair.
So please check your list, and consider one thought,
That might clear the air, and help us a lot:
A holiday gift that you give to the nation…
An energy plan, with REAL conservation.

Sincerely,

This card was created at www.lcv.org and if you donate $10 they will add your name to it. Unfortunately, a short time ago their website seemed to be down. Hmmm, imagine that.

1. Maybe the site was down due to heavy traffic. Let's hope anyway.

2. It had to be the work of Homeland Security, your an ass
"Unfortunately, a short time ago their website seemed to be down. Hmmm, imagine that."

Have we lost all common sense? Did you ever hear of bandwidth?
Why must everything be a sinister plot? The site is up as of this writing, we must have spoiled their plot.

Conspiracy theories at every turn, won't get us votes in 2008. Let's get back in the mainstream.

3. He didn't say ANYTHING about that.
Now you're the one seeing things that aren't there... seeing what you want to see? Jumping to conclusions? Perhaps "theorizing"?

All he said was "hmmm". That could mean a number of things. So, my advice is to just take a deep breath before you go off on "conspiracy theorists" in the future.

4. Awww, what's amatter there mnbiker
did someone say bad things about your favorite pres? Make you a little grumpy? I recommend you take a long look at where you are here. And you might want to work on your spelling skills a bit.

5. What are the misspelled words? There are none.
Were you insinuating the Gov shut down the site in your post? YES or NO?.....When we go around with conspiracy on our lips, we shut our party out of the chance for the mainstream voter. We have the conspiracy kook vote locked up. I would rather win the White House.

6. Do you understand the difference
between your and you're? People who go around calling others rude names are not gonna win back the country. And I was not insinuating anything. You seem to be the one seeing boogey men around every corner.
