As of today my political money goes to the
ACLU, the only ones that I can count on to protect the Constitution and the rights of Americans. I can no longer financially support the lame Democrats who have abandoned Russ Feingold. So, DNC, stop calling. :cry:

problem with.

The DNC is a WHOLE DIFFERENT ANIMAL. They fund the grassroots, so we can get NEW senators in the future.

3. I would also consider investing your money locally where you live.
Washington, which is doing little other than working to eliminate our rights as citizens are simply not concerned with what their laws are doing to us that have to live them.

Locally is the only way to take our country back. I would steer away from national organizations that are taking your money and using it in Washington and quite often for their own benefit, and placing your money where you can strengthen your location locally. If everyone did that, we would actually increase our power as citizens and not be as beholden to the Washington D.C. machine.

11. I have given to the county dem party in the past and
always support local dems...there just aren't many of them. I have donated to Barbara Radnofsky's Senate bid against Kay Bailey Hutchison.

4. Good choice. The ACLU actually does something.
We've been contributing to them for about 15 years.

9. Me too. Instead of spreading the $ around - it's all
going to ACLU and the other causes I support.

7. Hold Clinton accountable - Tasini in NY!
Remember, we get to choose our Democratic reps - and Tasini is a progressive, anti-war, pro-censure and impeachment candidate who wants to use New York's liberal tradition to advance a progressive agenda. You can contribute at tasininfornewyork.org!

13. Courage for Congress
Help us defeat DeLay's lackey Lamar Smith!

John Courage won Russ Feingold's first Progressive Patriot award and is Democracy for America's Grassroots All-Star. This is a seat we can win and when we do we'll be replacing a racist thug with a real progressive.
