2. we are actually going to fight them on this
now that Schiavo is (nearly) over, the Pukkes plan to take over the last exit out of Dodge.

Send your dollars to Ralph Neas; they are buying ad time!

3. I just saw the ad
They had it on at the beginning of the press conference. I'm glad they used the Jimmy stewart movie. People will long for the day when it actually meant something to state your cause.

4. Notice who the sponor is, it is not "we"
It's Normal Lear's "people for the american way", not the DNC.

6. That's true
and Ralph Neas being involved in this kind of surprised me. But he never was the prick that DeLay or Frist are.

5. The filibuster issue is going to get pushed thru the Senate
if we don't pay attention. People for the American Way stated in their ad "America works best when no one party has absolute power". Can you imagine what this nation would be like if the repukes got "absolute" power between now and the '06 elections?
