Contract for the American Dream - MoveOn.org
Just received from MoveOn.org. You can sign and\or read the contract at the link.


Hi,

Are you fed up with Washington too? They've been protecting the rich, punishing everyone else, and obsessing about the deficit, when what we need is Jobs, Not Cuts.

That's why I just signed A Contract for the American Dream. It was created by over 130,000 Americans considering over 25,000 ideas. It's a Contract to create jobs, invest in America, and put the American Dream in reach of all.

It's time to make sure Washington starts listening to us. That's why, if we get enough citizen signers on the Contract, it will go in a full page ad in the New York Times. So, please join me in signing today by clicking on the link below.

Thanks!

1. It is way too complicated, and "dream" is way too wishy-washy.
It will never beat "no new taxes".

5. Progress and Freedon
Progress -- jobs for everyone who wants to work, education for everyone who wants to learn, advancement for those who excel, communities that are liveable and attractive, and opportunity for a fair return on savings and investments.

Freedom -- freedom from bloody foreign wars, freedom from attacks at home, freedom from untreated sicknes and injury, freedom from poverty in old age, and freedom from government interference in personal decisions.

Just signed and that's where the number was when I did.

Doubt the numbnuts in Washington will care, but you have to keep trying.
