Reply #29: It is very important to support Jim in this case..(with video links) [View All]

One reason is the precedent that would be set if the exposing the lies of cons like Gingrich is found to be illegal.

The other is just the simple matter of "Which side are you on?" McDermott served during Vietnam as a doctor, and saw the raw truth of that war, and he has been a staunch believer that we as a nation can be, and must be, better than that. He ran for office believing that people of good will have to be be in politics, and he has been attacked by the fascist right precisely because he stands against their schemes and their goals, he knows who they are, and he fights them.

Anyone who doesn't know who he is or what he stands for can see for themselves by using DUer liveoaktx's CanOFun video links. Just enter McDermott in the search engine at http://www.canofun.com/blog/default.asp and you will understand why they want to silence him and why it is important that we do not let their attack succeed.

I donated a small amount, not much, less than a day's pay (last year it would have been a half day's pay) but consider giving just one hour's pay, or even less. Every bit matters.
