Reply #6: And a Great Article [View All]

(My first post - egad!)

The article "Against the House: Only Chumps and Compulsive Gamblers Keep on Playing a Rigged Game" recommended as "excellent" by the site is by a friend who is a long-time activist/documentary filmmaker.

Thanks, DUers, for all your good work, energy and enthusiasm - I've passed a lot of information from your site to many activist friends and organizations. Your excellent info and righteous rage helped inspire the steering committee (here in town) of the Mainstreet Moms Oppose Bush http://www.theMMOB.com to take national action.

FYI: The MMOB was one of the groups that started out as one small activist group in a small town in CA, spread into all 50 states. Their "Adopt a Swing State" campaign resulted in the snailmailing of more than 500,000 hand written letters to single moms in the swing states urging women to vote in the run up to the election. They are furious about what is going on, too.

Well, here goes...I'm going to press the post button.
