86. Oh please.
Have you forgotten what can be done when DU puts their mind to it. We raised thousands for dying friend because you took the lead and you kept the efforts alive.

Hell, we raised money to send flowers to those who support the liberal messages.

What you have referenced are meek efforts, there is no call to do, no structured activism. You cannot find the threads? Guess there was no effort at keeping them kicked and alive.

Hell, last Sunday a whole 15 people showed up to protest Warren's church (thank you Kitchen Witch).

Load the transition office up with postcards with an image of Warren's name stricken from the lineup.

Send shoes to the transition office with the name "warren" written all over them.

You had people send phone books out for pete's sake.

Giving on inauguration day, that's good but what does it say publicly? Who will know but the organizations that are the benefactors of the funds? How about organizing the inauguration events to include everyone opposed to Warren standing up and turning their back on him.

I'm not asking you to lead, you have done your part. I'm asking that instead of lecturing others on civil rights there needs to be a call for organized action. Begin it at DU and spread it across the web to all progressive sites.

I resent like hell being told that I don't care about the rights of others because I dare to challenge the absolutes of a few and I know others do to.
