It's so easy for me or anyone else to sit here and just demand that someone do something. So easy and so convenient.

I look at it a little differently. I think posters are justifiably angry that people who have the power to do something won't do it. Freepers in Florida and Indiana don't have any power. They wouldn't make it to the hospice door.

Our politicians, on the other hand, have at least some measure of power, and yet they are refusing to use it. Not at the risk of going to jail--as a Freeper surely would--but at the risk of looking bad or getting a judicial slap on the wrist. I'm angry at those who could do something and won't, not at posters who express understandable frustration.

Yes, but 30,000 people with water bottles in a line would make one hell of a statement.

I agree with you as well. However, I also think it is a really stupid thing for a poster to sit here and advocate civil disobedience and, in some cases, acts that would amount to or lead to something akin to civil war and not be a participant in what they are advocating. That, IMO, is cowardice.

Those that are making calls, faxing and emailing are trying. Those that aren't but who are insulting Jeb Bush are deplorable.
