OMG!!!! Cafferty just read my letter!!!!

[me b zola]

Okay, so he got my name wrong, he said Zita, not Zola---but who cares?!!!!!


on edit, here's my letter!!!!

Rep Conyers is spot on. As Bush promotes bombing the Middle East to convince them of the advantages of constitutional democracy, our own Constitution lies in tatters. Spying on Americans, detaining Americans without due process, an Executive Office acting unilaterally bypassing the Congress and many laws. I no longer recognize my contry.

This is the destruction of America that Bin Ladin never could have accomplished.




Hoot!! Cafferty shaved a few things off, I had origionally ended my letter by telling America to Wake-up. Oh well!!!!

9. Congrats Zola

Your letter was also "spot on"...
Well said!

[me b zola]

25. Thank you!

I am prolly one of the least articulate here at DU. Every now and then I'm able to put something together that conveys what I am feeling inside.

Thanks again!

[calimary]

35. One of the least articulate? Coulda fooled me! GREAT stuff.

If it's short, clever, and painfully to the point, it's VERY likely to make air. As yours did. It OBVIOUSLY fit the bill. And it was SO spot-on.

Hammer it home, guys. Hammer it home. The more this kind of sentiment sees the light of day, or gets published in some way (preferably a mainstream vehicle like Cafferty's), the better. ESPECIALLY for those who might be watching who just haven't put the words (or the sentiment, OR even the sheer realization) together for themselves. This will help them. The White House doesn't mind a bit issuing talking points to manipulate the public discourse and influence opinion. Which is why we need people like you doing so for OUR side.

EXCELLENT work!

42. Your kind words mean a lot to me

I have my moments, and today was one of those moments! Thank you for your kind words and encouragement.

:hug:

41. One of the least articulate? Don't even go there!

It's a good letter. And it's not the first time I've taken note of things you've written, mbz, so you must be communicating.

18. I heard him read it and thought, damn that's great! Congrats & good work

[me b zola]

23. Thank you!

I monkeyed around with the text for about a half of an hour--no genius I.

There were many other things that I wanted to bring into the letter, but the forum called for it to be short and sweet so I got it down to bare bones.

Thanks again.

[chimpymustgo]

19. I heard that! "Constitution lies in tatters..." Great job! nt

28. Thanks, REDSTATELIBERAL

I'm dial-up impaired. Are the letters he read in response also included?

[hang a left]

43. I just watched it and no they weren't

[DemonFighterLives]

30. Way to go

The truth will open some eyes.
:dem:

[DistressedAmerican]

31. Nice! Good statement too!

Every person that hears the message we are sending is challenged to think a bit. Good for you!

[OhioChick]

32. I heard your letter

being read. Good job! :hi:

[me b zola]

49. Thanks!

I jumped out of my chair when he said "Portland, OR". Then I proceeded to scream when he read the first line--it didn't help Mr. Zola's migraine.

Hoot! Thanks again! :hug:

[WinkyDink]

36. COOL! Congratulations, and kudos to you both!

[Cha]

37. Grreat Zola!

Good for you..thank you so much!

39. Right On

:hi:

[Bozita]

46. Congrats, Zola!

Excellent letter.

[Bozita]

47. oops ... dupe

[flpoljunkie]

48. Your letter was terrific, and ending with bin laden part very powerful.

Congratulations!

[me b zola]

56. Thank you

The last line came from a couple of discussions that we have had in GD regarding the subject of terrorism, and who really poses a threat to our way of life. Bin Laden, or any other person with an agenda, can occassionally inflict death and suffering to Americans, but they have zero power to actually destroy "America". America is a set of ideas rooted in the rule of law, the only ones who can destroy that is US.

Thanks again. :hug:

[rosesaylavee]

51. Well put!

we need more air time with well chosen words by WE THE PEOPLE.

Congratulations!

[Vadem]

53. Zola, I saw it! Great letter---he did say Zita...it got out anyway....n/t

[calimary]

57. Kicking this, just so more people can see it.

See? You try... you send stuff in... sometimes a guy like Cafferty actually picks it out to read it on the air.

Sometimes the good guys really do score.

:thumbsup:

[fooj]

58. Hey...I heard him read that. I thought..."what a great letter"!!!

Right on!:bounce: :bounce: :bounce:
