9. You should write or email them and tell them why you will.

If they think we don't care, they won't, either. We've seen an abundance of proof of this. Let them know what they just did to re-earn your wavering trust.

For example, I JUST got this reply from Mick Youther, a reporter who wrote "The Uglyiest American" - in Intervention Magazine.


Thank you for the kind email. It is up to all concerned citizens to
keep spreading the word about what the Bush Administration is doing to
America and the world. Spread the word to everyone you know.

Here's what I originally wrote to him:

I understand that comment on this has been cut off because most of it deteriorated into stupid name-calling. And that's too bad. Because I, for one, think this essay is TERRIFIC! I wish it were required reading for EVERY American voter, at least once per day.

Shall I call you names for it? Yes. How about "brave"? How about
"realistic"? How about "truth-teller"? Your article is exactly correct and unfortunately, tells it like it is. Bush has reduced America to derision and mistrust. He has singlehandedly squandered EVERY LAST SHARD of sympathy and support that was engendered for our country, world-wide, after 9/11. He has turned us into an international pariah. He has made us more enemies and alienated more allies. He has done anything BUT make us safer and more secure - we're now at greater risk. Gee, THANKS, George. Great job.

NOT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

And no, he can't spell it, nor does he give a you-know-what (gotta remember I'm in GD, not the Lounge). :evilgrin:

10. Excellent!

It's also good to see the words "Bush" and "accountability" in the same sentence.
