I am the first to admit, I have finally lost my marbles over the idiocy of the male gender of (my gender) our species. To wit, Bush and the few millions of U.S educated - supposedly - Americans.
Sign the damn petition if only to show these criminally stupid people that WE are many more in number than they. Show them once again, that we can generate a THOUSAND times more signers on our petitions than any petition “they” can come up with.
Poke out THEIR EYES, with your finger tips. Humiliate them with our numbers.
Update: In the time it took to write this, the petition is up to 264,011 signers.
Do non-progressive, non-liberal people even hold petition drives? What would they petition? What the hell, lets take a look:
Failed Republic Petitions:
Screw Mexicans ( 9821 signed)
Screw Climate Science (unverified claim of almost 40 scienists)
Screw Poor People (no kidding)
Screw Black People (MO, NE, KS - “Michael Jordan signed five times”)
Screw Gay People Florida4Marriage.org)
Here’s whole very weird site for right-wing petitions. Hey its a free market.
If “political correctness weren’t still hanging be a thread, I am quite sure we would be seeing more petitions like: “Kill Poor People”, “Ban Science”, “Nuke Iran”, “Nuke Islam, “Allow Slavery”, “Ban Shoes on Women.”
Think I’m kidding? Then you are a nice person. Stand aside.
Since they can’t actually get anyone beyond a few sheople to sign their shit, they have to use dirty tactics. One of their biggest problems is, most of cattle who do respond to fear, do not use the Internet EXCEPT for pornography, so they never see the petitions.
And how’s that “individual responsiblity” thing working for ya? I’m still looking for that one in the bible.
Which reminds me. I should point out that ActBlue’s counterpart, SlateCard is an abysmal failure. ActBlue has raised $40 million for Democrats. SlateCard won’t tell you how much they’ve raised for GOP candidates dispite their claim of tranparency. I’m guessing it’s under $200,000.
Why? Greed maybe? Slate is not a Foundation run by voluteers, like ActBlue. Its a PAC run by highly paid money grubbing political consultants from the Ann Coulter Fan Club.
Or maybe its the individual acountability thing. “Spend you own goddamn money if you wanna git elected. If ya ain’t rich, then ya ain’t too smart is ya?”
Its two thousand and eight (2008) for Christ sake, and some of us are behaving as if it were one thousand and eight (1008). No difference. The name of our commander in chief is now synonymous with all the other bully tyrants in the world.
Here’s the latest news on Tibet.
Good luck.
States have been using...

The King maintains that if you are to defy his Rule and his Knights, it is advisable that you do so with more than a piece of paper. Meanwhile, on with the head chopping.
The events of the 2oth century make the early horrors of of 1000 years ago look like kiddee shows. We have nuked people, camped them, machined them, bombed them from afar… im unimaginable numbers. What on Earth has given you the notion that we have somehow advanced to a better moral place? It has been the way, it is like telling your kids that the cow didn’t hurt when we killed it as they chew on its essence.
It is civilisation that has always been hanging by a thread, who the hell cares about what people SAY?
Grow up time. This is our litany, the tyrants do what they wish until PHYSICALLY stopped. It takes more than paper to defend your goddamn piece of paper.
Cliff, we are dealing with Red Communist Totalitarian China. Just think the money paid to the Chinese by sending our manufacturing there, pays to keep bullets in chicom guns, and food in chicom bellies, and fuel in chicom tanks. Have no illusions, we saw what happened in Burma, we know the history of Tibet, yet we fear the people that cannot yet manufacture a toaster. BTW, it is 8 years since I made my China predictions. 2 years to go.

Can the center hold? Or do we drift in reaction to the forces of entropy?
Winning war has little to do with numbers, otherwise, we would all be Muslims, beginning back in 1520. The Tibetans are on their own, which is why the Dalai Lama says he will quit if they don’t stop resisting.
If you thought that ruining the Olympics would stay the likes of the Red Chinese from acting reprehensibly to crush dissent, this is your wake up call. They have obviously planned for the contingencies, and knew well ahead what to do, quick brutal action is far better than dragging it out. If nations attend it will be only in recognition that they knew the drill, and those that don’t know that sports don’t mean anything in the big picture.

They have to be selling Ann Colter’s books for a buck apiece to wealthy troublemakers to get it on the best seller lists. I can’t believe anyone would want to read a crazy women’s rantings.
I kick myself for not buying a copy of a picture book based on the “Gingrich Revolution.” It was on a sidewalk sale at ZCMI for five bucks after Gingrich stepped down for being a complete hypocrite. Would have been a great conversation piece.
By the way, I signed the petition.
