Hellooooooo? Is there anybody out there?

jeesh... the fights between Bush supporters and Bush critics attract 1000+ posts...

Yesterday, FR was full of infighting about CFR, and how Bush screwed up, the SCOTUS screwed up, etc.

I saw a lot of passion yesterday. Where's the passion today, when we have a plan?

I've pinged everyone I can think of but no one seems to care, beyond the people that have responded here.

Pretty sad...

I know there a lot of people who love GW because of his love for the military. As a person who has military family--who got spit on in O'Hare airport, btw, upon returning from Vietnam--I understand that. I love how GW supports th troops.

And after 8 years of Clinton corruption, I can tell you that GW's inauguration was the happiest day of my life (ahem, besides the birth of my children and my wedding day).

:)

But we--and I'm talking to ANYONE who reads this, DU members or not--MUST realize that we have just given up a huge--well, not so huge, after all, it's just sixty days, right?--right.

We all, as Americans, MUST stand up for the First Amendment. And we should ALL, as Americans first, Democrats and Republicans second, demand that this law be repealed.

Why do you think the Founders put the First Amendment first? It is because they knew that without freedom of speech, and ESPECIALLY without freedom of political speech, the rest falls like a house of cards.

We--Republicans, Democrats, Libertarians, Greens, Communists, whatever--cannot tolerate the first "brick in the wall" in stopping the freedom to express political opinions.

/end plea. Goodnight...
