Chad Castagana, thanks for reminding me of the importance of donating to DU.
Edited on Mon Nov-13-06 09:55 PM by BleedingHeartPatriot
I could have waited. My gold star was good for several more months.

I could have been happily complacent after last week's election.

I donated today because of you. Your philosophy, your actions, your life, is the antithesis of American values.

You committed a terrorist act against fellow citizens. And, because the cabal in power told you it was OK to break the law, you believed them. You wanted so much for your hate to mean something.

And you reminded me that, even though those of your ilk are in the minority, the cabal is actively doing whatever is necessary to make sure all of you blinkered, gullible, low self-esteem folks equate patriotism with killing other Americans, if they happen to hold a different view from yours, and theirs.

The timing of your arrest is exquisitely perfect, in true freeper form. You have just kicked our DU fund raising up a notch, by being exactly the cliche to which we believe most freepers adhere.

Just like we can credit Rush with McCaskill's win, we may be able to credit you with providing the catalyst to the best DU Fundraiser ever.

edited because I forgot the word "view".

2. This fundraiser is moving quickly...
Perhaps many others feel the same way you do. I donated a lump sum on top of my monthly last night... DU has kept me semi-sane for a few years now.

5. Yup, I'm strapped until Thursday
The fundraiser is going so fast this time that it may not still be up by Thursday but even if I don't personally get to contribute to the socking that the Chimpster is going to get real soon, I'm still going to add a bit to my monthly. This is such an important site for me and since I can, I do want to monetarily help out DU.

got inspired all over again! MKJ
