SIGN THIS PLEASE : The Dems have an actual agenda !!!
Did anyone see what the Senate Dems came out with today?? It's a 10-point legislative plan -- and it's very good!! (I know, don't faint -- the Dems are finally fighting back hard and smart!).

Please take a look and sign this (it takes less than a minute to fill it out):
http://democrats.senate.gov/cosponsor-form.html

Click on the bottom left hand corner of the petition to read more about the ten pieces of legislation they're proposing. It looks to me like a well-crafted political bludgeon that will make Frist, Bush and the rest of them drool. It's "tough" on defense (it proposes funding 40,000 more troops to drive home the point that Bush is abusing out National Guardsmen), proposes strengthening Medicaid, has a strong education funding proposal, and demands election reform.

In the education bill there's even a proposal for funds to buy new school buses to replace dilapidated ones in rural areas of the country!! (It's like saying: See rural voters!! Dems care about your kids!! Republicans say they're gonna ban gay marriage but they renege on the deal as soon as they get elected.... vote for us Dems .... we won't lie to you....)

Please kick this so it stays up where DUers will see it.

Also, please forward the petition to anybody you know who may be interested in signing...


Thanks....

P.S. "Review" of the agenda in the Daily Kos:

11. Send a message, not just an address....
Please please stick to this agenda. Don't compromise on Social Security. Make them stand alone if they intend to gut the most successful domestic program of the twentieth century.....

Please make me proud of being a democrat again. Make all those years I volunteered and toiled as a party treasurer mean something for me and the future of our country......

14. Self-kick -- PLEASE TAKE A LOOK AND SIGN.......
Edited on Tue Jan-25-05 10:35 AM by moggie12
It only takes a minute -- election reform is one of the proposals -- this package will get a lot of attention if Dems can say 5 million people signed the petition......

What more can I say???
Does anybody have any objestions to signing?? If so, please let's discuss....
Can I be any more pathetic in my begging???
