60. It is indeed important
Edited on Sun Jan-02-05 01:57 PM by FreepFryer
Because we in are in a culture war with many fronts.

A significant political recognition of the irregularities, suppression and fraud of 2004 is absolutely required, and will have major payoffs regardless of any 'sore loserman' attacks leveled by the Republicans.

It was not foolish for the Washington Post to release Watergate information... without the substantial stand made by that paper to back Woodward and Bernstein, Nixon's crimes would have gone unverified...

Please everyone, have perspective, believe, and find in yourself some courage for the coming holding action to protect our civil liberties. With the truth on our side, and the strength of our convictions, we have the upper hand.

Liberal Democrats don't shy away from a battle to protect our rights like that represented in Election Irregularities '04. We're too strong and courageous for that kind of recalcitrance.

In the words of that other 'freedom fighter', Czech president Vaclav Havel:

"Hope is a state of mind, not of the world. Hope, in this deep and powerful sense, is not the same as joy that things are going well, or willingness to invest in enterprises that are obviously heading for success, but rather an ability to work for something because it is good."
