AGGGHHHH!!!! I hate how good the right is and how bad the media is.
I was talking to like-minded folks this afternoon. I mean people who can't stand Bush, have compassion for those less fortunate, believe taxes are an investment not a burden, etc.

And they had no clue what Nagin had tried to do prior to the storm. They were vaguely aware of some of FEMA's fuck ups but clueless about most of them. They knew the federal government screwed up but they didn't know how badly and how horrific it is.

In other words, they would probably read the Rovian Talking Points and not understand the context or the ramifications. Why can't we have a highly skilled powerful political operative --- with a conscience --- working for the Democrats???

1. Get into the activism thread here and
write that email. Blitz your reps, the media, all your friends and family.

Get the word out about what is really going on!

4. Way ahead of you. My LTTE was published this morning!
Already spoken to one of my senators and blitzed major media outlets. Just venting.

2. It's gonna have to be YOU.
If your friends don't know what is going on, YOU tell them.

Tell them about DU.
