No question about it, Edwards is saying the right things
"This is the critical moment in our effort to end the war.

Congress is considering abandoning it's plan to end the war in favor of yet another "extension" for President Bush that doesn't bring a single soldier home. We have to turn up the heat—and we have to move fast.

As of this morning, 101180 Americans have joined our call for Congress to stand up to Bush and end the war. We have a plan to get these names onto every desk and doorstep in Washington D.C., but we need your help.

Last night, my staff put the signatures into a full page ad for The Washington Post and now we need to raise $29,559 to rush it into print and keep the pressure on. We need 1,000 people to contribute $29.56 to make it happen. Can you chip in your $29.56 today?

Here's what the ad looks like:






Ultimately, it's up to the people to decide our nation's course. And at crucial moments like this, it's our duty to step up and lead.

...add to a couple days ago and they mostly flatly refused saying something like "petitions are slacktivism!" The post sunk like a rock. I didn't bother bumping it. Huh.

5. Sorry, sometimes DUers are real boors. :(
I think we've all experienced that kind of pettyness.

Sorry it happened to you. :hi:

6. Yes, and the same as this one:
http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=view_all&address=389x848867

Why would someone try to discourage an effort to end the war? And post the same comment to more than one thread?

btw, did you see this thread? Poll question: When someone trashes & bashes a Democratic candidate...: http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=view_all&address=389x864778
