2. I was wondering this too

When congress reconvenes to discuss the patriot act this would be a good time to send out an alert but it has been a long time since I got a call to action.

5. yeah...

It could have been that torture thing too, but still you'd think they'd drop us a line, if that was the case. I think they're in Cuba and can't contact their lawyers or us.

Why should they communicate their activities with people who might be "agents provocateurs" for all they or we know. Maybe they don't think keeping a high profile ALL the time would be such a smart thing to do. I think it's called keeping your powder dry.

You people seem to show a strange lack of respect for people who are prepared to put their bodies on the line.

7. yeah

well, I guess folks like us, who may also be willing to go the distance, like them, don't fret the small stuff and just try to keep inspiring messages that might motivate people out there.

9. okay

I would say "hi" for ALL DU but, unlike you, I've got this problem speaking for any group as a whole... Would it be okay if I just tell him "hi" for you?

Hang on there's some guys in dark suits at the door. Do you think they're trying to make a fashion statement by wearing sun-glasses at night?

12. Yes, sure. But watch the airport door doesn't hit you

on your way out.

Funny you should ask about a fashion statement, I've just been posting about orange jump-suits being the new Republican chic.

Don't forget to give to Fidel the best regards of people everywhere, who are smart enough to prefer a distribution of their nation's wealth among the people who earn it, rather than in ever-increasing favour of the parasitic worldings who are taking this whole planet to the precipice of extinction, with their fathomless lust for wealth and power. And don't forget that airport door...

11. I'm taking...

Action on my own by writing to sponsors of Rep.o-man controlled media in my area... Those advertisers are looking for feedback, especially first time clients trying out a station. I am currently looking for my local Demo Headquarters to finally do more. How does one find the Democratic Headquarters for Tuscaloosa AL? I googled it and found nothing... Well, not nothing, a hit sent me back here, to some outdated Alabama DU member board.
