Are you determined to do something to end this nauseating clusterfuck in Washington D.C.?
Are you tired of Nancy Pelosi and her despicable pandering to a war criminal president?
Are you tired of being told to shut the fuck up so “responsible” Democrats in Congress can take turns apologizing to Mr. 24 Percent all the way to electoral annihilation in 2008?
Are you seething that the Democratic leadership bullied Congressman Stark into apologizing by threatening to support a Republican censure vote against him? Was it an ordeal to watch Madame Speaker cooperate with gutter crawling Republicans, who eagerly smear 7th graders but rise up in outraged indignation if someone tells the fucking truth about that psychopath in the White House?
Nancy and Steny and Rahm threatened in a fucking heartbeat to censure a fellow Democrat. No problem! But they won’t even consider censuring that obscene bastard in the White House who has the blood of half a million innocent people on his hands and a rap sheet of crimes that would stretch from here to the dark side of the moon.
Yes, Madame Collaborator. Bush’s rap sheet of war crimes, torture, spying, abuse of power, obstruction of justice, and democracy destroying electoral theft IS that long.
If you’ve had your fill of this damn fool and her endless bullshit, if you think some serious payback is long overdue for betrayal after betrayal by Madame Speaker and her posturing pack of complicit jackasses, there IS something you can do.
Contribute to the campaign of a hero who stood up against Bush when no one else would.
The Netroots doesn’t have enough power yet to crash the gates of Washington D.C., but we can sure as hell crash the gates of CA-08 and toss Nancy Pelosi’s complicit ass out of Congress. Taking away Pelosi’s seat in Congress is not just about Impeachment, it’s not just about ending this criminal occupation of Iraq, it’s about challenging the entire corrupt, broken, fucked up beyond all recognition political system we have in this country.
Cindy Sheehan has been fighting her heart out for the causes we all believe in. If every one of us had done even just a fraction of what she’s done, this nightmare would be over. She confronted Bush in the summer of 2005 while millions of us were just sitting at our keyboards bitching to each other about no one doing anything. For two years, virtually alone, she has fought for the progressive causes we all cherish and paid a heavy personal price for it. She’s been viciously smeared, threatened, mocked and ridiculed day after day for telling the truth about this criminal government, complicit media, posturing Democrats, and that war profiteering bloodbath in Iraq.
She deserves our support. She’s more than earned it.
We need progressives in Congress who have the courage to confront these treacherous hypocrites and tell America the damn truth about them. Cindy Sheehan is running for Congress because she knows a functioning conscience and moral courage are far more important credentials for office than the empty platitudes these corrupt, lying incumbents plaster all over their glossy reelection brochures.
Fuck them and the K-Street cash cows they rode in on.
Cindy Sheehan is challenging Her Complicit Majesty, Queen of the House Pelosi because SOMEONE has to. Someone has to send Democrats in Congress a message they’ll never forget. If we can help Cindy toss that bug-eyed bitch out of Congress, no Democrat will ever ignore us again. If we can light up CA-08 with activism these next few months, they’ll know we are not going to shut the fuck up so they can go on pandering to lying, racist, blood-stained warmongers while America goes to hell.
Pelosi is the one who needs to shut the fuck up, and we can shut her the fuck up if thousands of progressive activists go door to door in CA-08 like Gene McCarthy activists went door to door in New Hampshire in 1968. They kicked LB Fucking J’s ass out of office and we can kick Pelosi’s ass out of office if we light up CA-08 like they lit up New Hampshire.
It’s our turn to make some history. It’s our turn to stand beside a hero, it’s our turn to speak truth to power, it’s our turn to fight for justice so America won’t forget what the hell it is.
CA-08.
Cindy Sheehan.
It’s time to take a stand.
It’s time to make a difference.
It’s long past time.
Help Cindy Sheehan. Volunteer for her campaign. Send her a contribution. Take a stand with her so your children and grandchildren and great-grandchildren won’t have to fight and die for future Commander Guys of the United States of Exxon/Mobil/Bechtel/Blackwater Inc.
Giving Peace a Chance is worth a few of your dollars

Support Cindy Sheehan. Support her now and keep supporting her.
I will never forget that summer when Cindy decided that she was going to confront Bush and took herself, alone, to Crawford, Texas, and camped in a ditch there until others came and joined her.
Since that time and continuously, Cindy took up the banner of right vs. wrong and has spent herself tirelessly in that effort, and at a cost of many personal sacrifices: her marriage, her personal finances, her health and the many long periods away from her family unit, being jailed and all of the above “attacks” on her character, as you have mentioned.
She has dedicated herself to our democracy with a determination and courageness like no other.
Certainly, helping her get elected into office seems a miniscule effort in view of her own. She, above all, deserves every bit of support we can garner. Hopefully, people will get on board to do so.
I wish I had a few bucks to send Cindy.
Even if Cindy doesn’t win, if she makes a good showing, it will send a much needed message that even Pelosi will be forced to hear. That message being that we aren’t going to put politics above people, and doing whats right.
are a good thing. Even if Cindy doesn’t win it gives people a choice and keeps Nancy’s complicity out there,and if we don’t run we can’t win. The electoral system is rigged because of the money, and peoples choices are often based on the same maddening excuse our congress critters offer up. “We don’t have the votes”. I say challenge them and run. Cindy has my support and I hope the day will come when we actually get to decide who represents us.
documentary on HBO called Run, Granny, Run. It’s about a 94 year old woman who took on a Republican in New Hampshire 04 and did quite well. She has now turned her activism toward election reform. Now there is a Democrat. If we keep running we can change the dynamics and maybe even get some needed election reform. The myths that conservatism is all we can get in some districts is another way to keep the status quo political machine in place, it also helps keep voters home.
That’s a good one. You can use it as a punctuation:
George W. Bush……..malheureusement
Anthony Charles Lynton Blair….malheureusement
hours of fun.
Rusty,
I loved your posts over at DK and am glad I found your stuff here.
I’ll contribute to Sheehan but can someone set up an ActBlue page for her? I am an American living overseas and don’t have a checkbook. Sometimes contribution pages on candidate websites don’t accomodate credit cards issued overseas, either. ActBlue on the other hand accomodates overseas addresses/cards so I know I could contribute thru that.
