TAKE ACTION CIVIL ON RIGHTS

[norepubsin08]

Just these past couple of days, testimony has borne out just how close to losing all our civil rights, we came to be. To me, this is one of the worst things to happen to the country since the civil war. Nothing could be worse than not being able to express, or live in fear that if the state is angry with you they can dispose of you how they see fit.

When this was happening there were many who down played it and soften the ugliness of it. There were those who went right along with and then there was the vast majority...those whose lives were not DIRECTLY and IMMEDIATELY affected by it who didn't care, didn't know or didn't want to know.

We must do something to bring this further into the light of day. IMHO we need to have a national day of action. I would suggest a weekday (Wednesday) in which everybody calls in sick, or economically if that can't be done, a Saturday...during the time we are not at work...we need to be protesting (or vigiling)...at the State, County and City Republican Headquarters.

This would IMHO accomplish a few things:

1) maybe put pressure on Congress to push for prosecution a little more aggressively
2) alert some people to what actually was going on around them for the past 8 years
3) lay the blame squarely where it belongs..on the Republicans doorstep

I would appreciate some discussion of this...if it is done, it needs to be done a massive scale...let me know what you think..Peace Mike C
