you helped DU now help Texas!!
we've all been reading about the killer B's down in Texas standingup to the atttempted republican power grab. Well, moveon.org is organizing to do something. Please contribute to them, and email this thread to a friend or two.

Dear Friends,

Something shocking is happening in Texas. Republican Majority Leader Tom DeLay is pushing an out-of-the-blue redistricting plan that will remove up to 7 Democrats from congress. This is an unabashed power grab, and MoveOn.org is trying to stop it. For the full story on what's going on, click here:

<http://moveon.org/texasads>

DeLay has never been shy about his goals: "I'm the majority leader, and we want more seats." (New York Times, July 1, 2003). But now he and other Texas leaders are showing that they're willing to interfere the rules of Democracy and with the rule of law itself to achieve their short-term goals.

MoveOn.org is trying to fund an ad campaign in Texas to try to stop the redistricting and to hold the politicians behind it accountable.

To contribute to the ad campaign, or to read a shocking letter from one of the State Senators involved in this fight, click here:

Thanks,

1. I'm thrilled MoveOn...
has entered the fray. Dems across the country have got to stop the GOP ANYWHERE they try their bullshit, be it Florida, California or Texas.

2. You Mean Killer "D's"
Killer B's makes it sound like an insect invasion. But, then again, didn't Tom DeLay own a pest control company before he ran for Congress?

On second thought maybe DeLay DOES think he's going after the killer B's ...}(
