Congress - You Better Be Paying Attention

[ThomWV]

Democracy flexed its muscles yesterday. A half a million people took the time and made the effort to give you a clear message you better be paying attention. This damned war the Republicans started has to end, our troops have to come home, that bastard Bush has to go. That is the message. Congress, you had better be paying attention.

Democracy flexed its muscles yesterday and you were notable in your absence. We are strong enough and we want Representatives who will stand up for us. Congress, you had better be paying attention.

Democracy flexed its muscles yesterday with only 14 months to go before the mid term elections. There is time for new voices willing to do the people's work to rise up and take your place. Congress, you had better be paying attention.
