Take to the streets and mount massive protest to demonstrate disapproval and frustration

Camp out for days and weeks on end demonstrating to their government officials they will not forget unfair Corporatist policy being enacted

Mobilize and invigorate an entire state/country drawing world wide support

Mount successful recall efforts in the face of well moneyed Corporate interest



ya ..... just like Wisconsin

1. We could, but the effort to organize that many people across that much land is huge.
And as homogenized as the country is becoming, there are enough regional and cultural differences that add difficulty as well. If anything happens, it will start local and then merge with other local efforts.

a complete and total douche-bag to the Governor's position and provided said douche-bag with a nice little party majority in order to allow him to cram his wacko agenda through.

I would much rather skip that step.

5. After the Nickolaus/Prosser stories, and Murdoch's hacking operations...
I'm not so sure Wisconsin really did elect Scott Fucker.

They sure as hell wouldn't today.

3. Slightly off topic, but the banana in your sig line appears to be masturbating.
Alright, WAY off topic.
(By the way, I completely agree with your post.)
