Contact your Senators!! Oppose the "Broadcast Decency Enforcement Act"!
I know I will be writing both of my Senators tonight. I would love to see Barbara Boxer stand up against this ridiculous legislation the same way she has been courageously standing up to the right wing lately! Those of us who support free speech should band together and let our Senators know how we feel! It makes me sick that 161 House Democrats voted for this. I still believe in banding together behind the most progressive candidate with a chance of winning, and that is the Democrat 99% of the time. However, this House vote has made me understand the disgust that some people at DU have with the Democratic Party. However, another thing I noticed is that almost all of the "Nay" votes were Democratic.

1. Always remember its not the party, its the people.

Liberalism is still the foundation of the Democratic party. Right now the party is awry because our politicians have stopped representing us because the right has marginalizd us.

The party is still ours, we just need to start getting better politicians elected in our primaries. Politicians who understand why the Democratic party is the right party.

But on the topic of the thread, yes, do so. I will.
