2. Thanks -- I don't know if this will hit Obama's radar, but the other day when
I heard a clip from his CBS interview I THINK he was saying he feels he's lost part of his base because of the economy, jobs, etc. I don't know if it gets to him that we're disappointed when he seemingly (to us) doesn't fight for what we think is fair. This might serve to show him that's a part of the 'backlash from the base', too. :shrug:

When I signed there were twenty-some thousand sigs.

4. i didn't look to see how many signatures they're were,
but i'm sure there's a lot.

these petitions help. look how fast we got olbermann reinstated. don't know if you signed the petitions last year to the advertisers to drop glenn beck. last count 87 had dropped him. unfortunately he's still around.

7. i do too. guess that's why
every democrat, leftist group and animal charity all have my e-mail.

a few years ago i got an e-mail from barbra streisand on behalf of a candidate.

since i've been on facebook (almost 2 years) i post the petitions on my page. also send e-mails with petitions to my family and friends.

3. I got that email and unsubscribed because Adam Green was on MSNBC
spreading the LIE that Obama wants to permanently extend the tax cuts for the top 1%.

5. Yeah - there's a lot of that knee-jerk reacting and it makes me nuts. They don't
listen to what he's actually saying, OR decide in advance what he'll "really do". :eyes:

I was happy to sign this petition, though, because I'm against this extension. It continues to hurt us because of the lost revenue it represents.

:hi:
