How Will You Act If Immunity Is Granted To The Telecoms?
Simple question, if the Democrats in the House cave in and allow the Senate's immunity for Telecoms (for Bush actually) to go through how will you feel about it, what will you do about it? Do you seen much importance in the matter or do you?

1. I'll be pissed...
I see a lot of importance in the matter on a number of levels. Constitutionally....in terms of corporations being given cover by our government for illegal activity....in terms of democrats caving to fear mongering.

What will I do about it? Flat out I won't vote for any Dem who votes for any bill that has it in it. Period.

It's a major issue for me.

7. Gosh! Don't know? I may never be able to go on stage again. Alas!
There's simply no way we can stop the sold out corporatist politicians at the controls.

We've been doing everything we can think of to give our Dems a spine for years now.

Short of natural disaster, martial law or armed revolution, I see no options

Sorry

9. Remind My Repugnican Acquaintances...
...that soon we now can listen into their phone calls. Of course they have nothing to hide...sure they don't. Ya know, Hillary sure would like to know how much money they bet with Sportsbook or what you were chatting about in that Instant Message with some 15 year old (not sure what gender)...and that Obama definitely wants to check those emails and dues payments to the NRA cause he's gonna take your guns away and force you to become a Muslim.

This game can be played two ways...might not be bad to scare the GOOPers with what could be....

10. My disgust level will just increase.
I'm almost numb to inaction and incompetence. As I see it, the only thing that will work anymore is for the people to march on the capitol and take control. It's obvious there aren't enough left in Congress who haven't sold their soul to feed their egos who can still make their vote count...Democrats and Republicans.

Where's Mr. Smith when you need him?

14. Their are a couple of things we can do.
First, we need to find out who voted against the Constitution. Knowledge is power. Then we need to show those people that they will regret their vote. How embarrass them, picket their local offices,apply light to their shady dealings. Second, if we have their name we can tell anyone who will listen what a unpatriotic american they are, how they have circumvented the "Bill of Rights". Third, we can boycott their supporters, and hit them in their pocketbook. How important is this, It's the difference between a democracy and a totalitarian dictatorship. It's the difference between Right and Wrong.
