Moore: Do something-anything-but don't remain silent- Not now-This is the moment-It won't come again

I feel the most important goal is to get corruption out of the political system. Until that's done, everything else will be futile.
But that's my opinion. What ever you think is the most important issue, must be broadcast to the public. The media is our enemy and we need to figure out how to get our messages out in spite of them. Call representatives, email, print flyers and spread them around public places. Get your friends and family on board. Join DFA, moveon or PDA.

We must get the message out.

anyone that denies the fact ,pointing out being a racist , Xenophobe is handing Our country over to the Meglomaniacs of our planet.

however appeals to Congress are compromised b/c they are.

Get the 1%ers out of Congress. Get the 5%ers out of Congress. Get the 11%ers out of Congress.

And take away their effin HEALTHCARE.

But I think it is a tool and we need to use it. Use everything.

make them earn their Congress kibble

getting the word out on who not to buy from, or what not to buy or what organization is actually what in it's intentions and on and on.

online?

got time to do it?

I suggest 'quit buying stuff' all the time. One reason is that it is one way, however indirect, to get corruption out of the political system. If Wal-Mart doesn't have the money to spend on politics, they won't spend it on right-wingers. Yes, this is a long-term hope, but so was ending slavery, or building the internet.

Surely there are more direct, more effective ways of ending corruption. Running for office is an obvious one, but not for everyone. Working for the local party is another, working with voting rights groups is another, exposing individual corrupt politicians and acts is another, and so on.

The internal problem for us is, of course, that we don't agree on directions and goals, so many tactics are great for some but problematic for others. I always thought that the purpose of the parties was to manage this process, to organize the tradeoffs necessary to get the various parts of a plan implemented.

The external problem for us is that our opponents at this time want to destroy everything social - to wipe our culture from the planet, and from the minds of our children - and to steal everything of economic value. Because of this, there is very little that we can offer them to assist in their 'plan' that seems like a reasonable compromise to the democratic population. NOTHING they want benefits any of us in the long run, and the short-term benefit is either that they destroy someone else instead of us, or they pay us some small portion of the booty for betraying a large number of ourselves.

Personally I think the party needs an explicitly stated policy of "We need to STOP these monsters, and so will oppose them at EVERY turn. Once they are defeated, we can then again consider instances where we may agree with particular actions, even if for different purposes, but until then we are at war and cannot afford to indulge them."

in the political system, is the money, "the greed" as MM points out. Citizens United is the enemy of full disclosure and America, time to turn Citizens United on their GOP head.

To say otherwise is like saying we're going to kick heroin while still hanging out with our junkie friends. It'll never work.

Our elected representatives care not a whit about us as people. To them we are merely votes. Their search for the next vote total begins on inauguration day and is financed by whatever corporation (or industry for that matter) they make the best promises to.

Personally I can't think of a single one of the 535 people who run our lives I'd like to see remain in office. Not one. No, I do not wish for republican rule, but neither do I think Dems are really on our side deep in their hearts.

Moore complained about something Obama did. So we can't do any thing he suggests. If we do, the haters win.

Moore would probably kill himself, if he didn't have something to whine about constantly.

Sicko raised the awareness of many people about the deplorable state of health care in our country. Before the movie came out the main stream media NEVER covered the inhumane, immoral and greedy behavior of the health insurance industry.

Moore is on the side of Americans, not corporations.

We've heard it all before. LOL!!!!!!
