So much outrage!
We can talk till we are blue in the face, but for what? Are things ever going to change? Will these criminals in this current administration ever be brought to justice? There has to be whistle blowers out there, where are they? The election was stolen! We are living in a police state! What did the people do to overthrow their communist Government? We rally, sign petitions, email our elected officials, boycot companies but nothing is working!

2. Donate money
Edited on Wed Apr-20-05 03:25 PM by Kurovski
As much as you can, maybe more.

Write and call your Reps with specific, clear requests.

Write your local paper, call radio shows and your local news channels. Request more coverage of the news you want to hear,

Speak out about machine voting, demnand accountability, verifiable voting.

SMILE! Laugh! Complain!

EDIT: Many people throughout the history of the world worked for change their entire life, yet the change never came until after they were gone.

3. Our job is to educate.
Our job is to educate more than it is to complain.

We lost three elections mostly because of MISINFORMATION. Remember how many Bush supporters believed Iraq was involved in 911? I'm a BIG believer in the fact that no Republican would EVER get elected if s/he spoke the truth.

THAT is what we must work on most. If Democrats did nothing else but make sure they spread the TRUTH day in and day out, and always correct falsehoods vehemently, things would improve.

The pendulum WILL eventually swing the other way.

4. read this about all the things libs did
Day in the Life of Joe Republican
Joe gets up at 6 a.m. and fills his coffeepot with water to prepare his morning coffee. The water is clean and good because some tree-hugging liberal fought for minimum water-quality standards. With his first swallow of water, he takes his daily medication. His medications are safe to take because some stupid commie liberal fought to ensure their safety and that they work as advertised. All but $10 of his medications are paid for by his employer's medical plan because some liberal union workers fought their employers for paid medical insurance - now Joe gets it too. He prepares his morning breakfast, bacon and eggs. Joe's bacon is safe to eat because some girly-man liberal fought for laws to regulate the meat packing industry.
