I’m sure I’ll get my underwear torched for saying this... but what do those who are screaming “NO DEAL!” expect? We made great progress in 2010, but the reality is, folks, we don’t have enough influence or control yet to implement the change we need. To be honest with you, I have greater fear over a collapse of our system and the immediate power grab that Zero would implement than I do over making some progress in this battle like we have while keeping the issues in front of the public.
So we call our leaders — tell them “NO”. They comply. The deal falls apart. Are you REALLY welcoming what might follow in the wake?? The reality is Zero and Harry are NEVER EVER EVER going to give us what we really want. The key comes next November...
This fight needs to be fought. If not now, when? If not by us, who?
