Congratulations Chairman Dean - here's 50 bucks
Edited on Sat Feb-12-05 02:28 PM by BlueManDude
to help you on your journey. Given what is happening both overseas and domestically, the future well-being of our country is at least partly in your hands. Here's one Democrat who's tired of the timidity, tired of the backpeddling, tired of the equivocation and most importantly tired of the respect and fealty given by our party to the incompetent fascist criminals who are now running the US government. We are with you Chairman Dean.

Let's show the Judy Woodruff's and the Tim Russerts and perhaps most importantly the fainthearted among the Democratic Party, that Howard Dean is the right man for the job.

1. You too?
I just plopped down fifty bucks via Atrios' website. In his words, it's the only way to "shut Candy Crowley the fuck up!" Onward and upward, Chairman Dean! Let's ROAR in '06!

3. money is what they understand
when we flood the dnc with $$$ they will get it. the faintherted dems will fall in line when they see the small donor support for dean. dean scares the f out of the gop because he is not intimidated by them.

15. How 'bout this - Tired of Democrats going on national TV
completely un-prepared to counter the RW line of the day, accepting false premises at the beginning of the discussion - then playing defense the whole time. Anyone else tired of that?

6. I gave
Although, as one who uses medical marijuana for epilepsy, I was not happy with Dean's position on the issue, I think he's just who we need to lead us right now.

9. Is there a designated number for DU donors like .01 or .05 so they can
tell its from DU people? We did this stuff with Dean in the primary.
I would give an amount with the cents part signifying something.

11. Make a bigger statement by adding an additional .06
Now that Howard Dean has been elected Chair of the DNC, we would like to encourage you to donate to the DNC (Democratic National Committee). If you can afford it, please donate $20.06 (or in amounts that end in .06 ... $10.06, $30.06, etc...). We are not looking for a ton of money, but it is the symbolism of our appreciation of their votes for Gov. Dean.

$20.06 represents 2006 - the year the Democratic party, under the leadership of Governor Dean, takes back Congress, and progressive politicians at all ballot levels are elected.
