1. Yes.
If there are not thousands of people in the streets . . . it's all over.

2. I've already been to DC once this year to protest
WCW rally. Not a great turnout. But I'd do it again. And again. And again.

Why can't we get 100,000 in the streets as they did in India this very day to protest *.

8. April 29th in NYC, supporting the grassroots impeachment movement,
continuing to voice my concerns and develop ideas for a winning Democratic long-term strategy in as many outlets as possible, working to get a Democratic Governor elected in Massachusetts for the first time since the early 1980s, and generally raising hell--oh yes.

We ALL need to stay on task and on point until our nation's problems are resolved, and after they are, we still need to stay on top of things--to make sure this never happens again.

11. This Thurs.pm, a CCR forum in NYC w/John Dean,Rep.Conyers,others
I don't have much info on it:hosted by Center for Constitutional Rights, & it sounded like a great panel; I ck'd with the Cspan, asked if they'd cover it, I would sure like to have it LIVE...
..it is ALL about the IMPEACHMENT.


Visualize IMPEACHMENT ~===]

12. Damn--I was hoping that eventually
I'd be able to get back to my regularly scheduled life!

Can we rest after they've all been tried, convicted, and incarcerated in their own Halliburton-constructed detention camps?

10. Yes and it starts with the religious right.
Because no one's belief in god, and no ones government has the right to deny me a cure for parkinsons. And I swear eternal hostility for anyone who thinks that a fetus is more important than a living think independent human being.

14. I am willing to fight ANDdie
for my country, it's constitution, the bill of rights and the American way of life. As my bumper sticker says, "you can have my civil rights when you pry them from my cold, dead, hands.

Nuff said!

16. I just returned from lobbying the state legislature in Albany.
So, the answer is a restounding yes. I will take to the streets in protest. I also don't believe that any of this will be enough to effect regime change. I will continue to attend rallies and marches in the meantime, though. Eventually, we must find a way to really win this fight. I will do whatever is necessary and will try to be as creative as possible.
