Thanks 90-percent Jimmy. I signed last night. Also I signed a White House petition last night to bring charges against Issa & also his removal from the oversight committee. Unfortunately, my computer is not working properly & it is difficult to copy & paste.
I checked it is now almost 12,000--this link should go out to all the progressive websites.

hopefully a little grassroots help from DU, the most awesome progressive website on the internets, could nudge this past the 100,000 required to get a presidential response.

my compliments to your wonderful city. I'm in northwest CT and get up there from time to time.

90% is the max percentage of nitromethane fuel allowed in NHRA Top Fuel and Fuel Funny car. I hope you heard of or attended the first NHRA Big Show event ever at Epping this past weekend. New England Dragway has a hell of a lot of history and the track layout is that of the classic mid 60's American Drag Strip. Most strips these days are too big and too modernized and lack historic charm.

It took a couple of minutes to create an account, but so what? I would have waited far longer for the privilege.

This change to full taxation could force Tea Party organizations and Conservative groups to reveal the sources of their funding. What would people think of those "grass roots" movements when it's revealed 90% of their money comes from a couple of hundred uber-wealthy individuals? It will likely cause a few people to reconsider who their real friends are.

A title with "Tea Party tax exempts" in it so people would know they could help to check those illegitimate organizations.

Babel_17, Excellent idea!!! Unfortunately, writing is not one of my strengths. A new thread is absolutely needed. Possibly Babel could you post a fresh thread. Judging by your post your writing is concise & to the point. Below is Lawrence's link that will bring you to the petition:
