1,000,000 people.
Funny how we reached that number. On one hand, Barack Obama just hit a million individual supporters, scaring the shit out of AIPAC, RNC, DLC, and a number of lobbying groups on K Street.

On the other hand, we approach 1,000,000 individuals put on our TSA's "Do Not Fly" list - made up of US citizens, no less.

The VAST majority of americans finding themselves in TSA hell are innocent. Yet, there is NO MECHANISM, PROGRAM, PROCEDURE, or ABILITY to get your name off that list, unless you are a US senator or congresscritter.

1,000,000 individual Americans. The symmetry is astounding.

to click in support of Robert Wexler's efforts to IMPEACH CHENEY.

9. We have killed 1.2 million Iraqis. Obama needs to look at those people and realize.
Bush has killed more people than he has individual supporters. Then he needs to make his decission about prosecuting Bush & Cheney. When you see the effect these 1 million people have on our political process in a country of 300 million. Just imagine the effect those 1 million Iraqi's would have had in a country of 26 million.
