Poll question: I am a PROUD card carrying member of:
What's your "liberal street cred?" Show your pride.

Let's see what organizations DUers are *actively* involved with.

If more than one, list 'em.

Also post if an organization isn't listed. Let us know - if unfamiliar, we may want to join too! There are so many good organizations, but I only had room for 10...not my intention to purposefully leave any out.

(And yes, I suspect some of you are members of the NRA :-) )

3. ACLU and Amnesty International.
I let my NOW membership lapse because of their defense of Sarah Palin.

7. ACLU and.......
I also canceled my membership in NOW and wrote them a letter to tell them why. SAME REASON, their support for Sarah Palin. It was a sad day for me, as I was a supporter of NOW for decades. Wonder how many of us they lost?
