You missed the whole point of my post. Which was, to DO SOMETHING. I took a personal holiday and donated money to the cause to show my support. I handed out flyers to get people interested in taking part and supporting the protest, to at least come to the rally at Cal Anderson Park, if they could not come to the protest. I encouraged people to excercise their civil liberities against their government, which has waged an illegal war against a country which posed no conceivable threat to our nation.
This is why I joined Democratic Underground. When it became clear to me that our government was lying, I started taking notes and paying attention.

What did you do?

I am writing to my representatives and senators. I will support any political group or cause that will work for the impeachment and removal from office of the current administration.
The mere fact that our nation invaded another country under false pretenses should enrage every American. Recent revelations from Bob Woodward and the CIA point out that our government knew before 9-11 that airplanes could be used to attack the World Trade Center are even more diabolically evil. It is no longer just a conspiracy from some left wing waco group of socialists or communists or hippie free lovers, now it is established as fact from the Main Stream Media, and further verified by Condoleeza Rice's own spokespeople.
This should get everyone to call their senators and congresspeople and demand a resignation of the entire Bush regime. It is no longer about politics. Now it is about morality, now it is about ethics, and a complete abuse of power, far worse than anything Nixon could even have dreamed.
Can anyone imagine what Eisenhower would have done, if people in his cabinet knew about such a threat? Or Roosevelt, Nixon, Kennedy, Bush Sr, Reagan? Can you imagine what anyone but Bush would have done if news came to light that their administrations had violated the Geneva Convention?
Why is Rumsfeld still there? Why has our government turned back the clock 800 years on jurisprudence by throwing Habeous Corpus out the window? Why do columnists across the country call for Rumsfelds resignation? Why is it that anyone in the military knew we were going to Iraq before Bush was even elected? (If you know anyone in the military above the rank of a sargent, you too would know they were talking about this.)
In a related thread, I said that Reagan would have sent planes and special forces after anyone who posed a threat to the US. Does anyone honestly beleive any president in the last forty years would have sat on their hands and done virtually nothing with the case for 9-11 so plainly laid bare?

I support DU. I support the White Rose Society. I support World Can't Wait, and the Nation, and Mother Jones, to name a few. I donate my time, and I will continue to do so. If I have the strength and the time, I will work toward Justice and democracy and the values of civilized nations worldwide. I am the working poor. And I vote.
