Bloggers (and non-bloggers) Wanted!
Edited on Fri Jun-03-05 06:56 PM by Ronbrynaert
Hundreds and hundreds of bloggers - large, medium and small - make up the community at Democratic Underground.

We need every single one of you.

The Big Brass Alliance ( http://www.bigbrassblog.com/bba.html ) was formed less than a week ago and it is now up to 283 bloggers who have banded together to get some answers to all of the questions that have been raised because of the minutes that have come to be known as the Downing Street Memo.

When was the invasion planned? When did it start? Was evidence fixed? When did they know that much of the proof was based on lies from a single untrustworty source? Why was this more important than hunting down the ones behind September 11th?

These are just a few of the many questions that the American public and the world deserve to know the answers to.

The mainstream media is not doing the job. We need to prove that this should be the number one story on every network and in every newspaper until some real answers are given.

If we all band together and push this campaign...

If we all devote a little time each day to do something toward getting this story the coverage it deserves...

If we all do what we can to inform everyone we can by internet and by (uhh)real life....

If we all become one on this incredibly important issue...

The larger we become, the louder we shout, the more organized we get the more chance that there won't be anymore ifs involved.

Send an e-mail to mail@bigbrassblog.com if you'd like to join us, and send an e-mail to bigbrassalliance-request@bigbrassblog.com with the subject line containing subscribe to get on the mailing list.

If you don't have a blog...START ONE TODAY!...or write every blogger you can think of and tell them why it's important to do this.

1. I have a related question.
Are you saying that the Downing street memo (minutes) were written about a meeting at the Crawford Ranch? I thought it was a meeting in London which reviewed events that happened in Washington.

It would be interesting to know know more about the location, time and people at the meeting.
With a name like Downing Street is make it seem so foreign.

4. whoops
no...that was a mistake...I took out a sentence that included "crawford ranch" ...it WAS partly based on meetings in Washington.

sorry...i'm sure glad you asked about it so I could fix it

but this link tells you who was at the meeting and more info:

6. blog away
I just began this recently, and am really feeling good about it. It is a nice way to concentrate and keep track of what YOU feel is most important, and express yourself too. NoBU**SH**zone <http://jarnocan.blogspot.com> on the top right side there is a link that says get your won blog and it's free.
You will catch on quickly. I know little about templates and html but you don't need to know anything. E-blogger also hooks you up with Picasso/hello software which is great for adding your favorite protest photos and pics.
I have mostly petitions- right now links for Downing St. memo, demanding our right to learn the truth, and have it reported by a free and fair media, verified voting and elction FRAUD investigations and of course IMPEACH BU**SH**!
Also the orange post card beyond virtual march on WDC!

People are getting flooded with emails that don't pertain to them or Big Brass Blogging.

13. and i take it
you received my response by email concerning how much i care about that

priorities, people

anyway....it's been fixed so your inmail box is safe...(but as I note below...I'm not the one that started this wonderful alliance)

and the only emails that anyone received that didn't pertain to them or big brass blogging were the ones sent by people who complained about getting too much email....how ironic
