Fewer than 10,000 to go to get to 500,000 !
MoveOnPac says, "We've achieved 98% of our 500,000 goal (490,126)!"

Of course, we want to go higher than 500,000 -- but, hey, let's have a :grouphug:

:woohoo: :woohoo: :woohoo: :woohoo: :woohoo:

Good news indeed. What if by the end of the weekend the whole number is gotten? Will they move everything up or will it still be Thursday? Oh and have they made sure everything is legit?

:woohoo:

6. I think they have been dropping some illegit signatures in real
time. I've seen the counter on MoveOnPac go down several times.

4. That means only 510,000 to a Million!
I checked Guiness, world record is 19.6 Million...

5. I like the way you think!
Exactly what record is 19.6 Million -- signatures to an online petition or any petition? Over what period of time? I'm curious.

7. Keep pressure on the Mainstream Media

Just a reminder of some very, very important links:

To sign Congressman Conyers’ letter

To put and keep pressure on the Mainstream Media:

http://www.downingstreetmemo.com/takeaction.html#awaken


http://www.afterdowningstreet.org


LISTEN TO THE RANDI RHODES SHOW-to keep up daily with what’s going on with--THE DOWNING STREET MEMO:

We should all write the media using our own words. But this is my letter--in case it might be useful to someone:


Dear Sir/Madam:

As you know, on May 1 of this year a document now commonly referred to as “|The Downing Street Memo” was released into the British Press. This document raises serious question about how the administration was handling intelligence related to Iraq and appears to suggest that the Bush Administration had already decided on war when publicly it was claiming that no such decision had been made.

This document suggest that the Bush administration was determined to “fix intelligence” around a predetermined policy.

It is most disturbing that there has been a virtual media blackout regarding “The Downing Street Memo”. Even more disturbing is the absence in the America media of any credible discussion or coverage regarding strong, credible and independent evidence that the Bush Administration intentionally mislead the U.S. Congress, the media and the American people.

I do hope you will accept the responsibility to address this issue and provide serious investigative journalism into this matter.

Furthermore, on Thursday June 16, 2005, Rep. John Conyers, Jr., ranking minority member of the House Judiciary Committee, and other House members will hold a hearing to consider testimony concerning the Downing Street minutes and questions of possible fixing of prewar intelligence. I do hope you will be giving full coverage to these events.


Sincerely,
