Snail: they’re working on it.

Paypal: you can check “Don’t have a paypal account?” and it takes you to a regular credit card page. But I agree it’s confusing. Hope that our hard-working tech people can make it easier for people to find the regular credit card option. We want EVERYBODY’s money :)

Novak also included other details not mentioned in the June 10th memo. So, just where did Robert Novak get this additional information?

While Libby is the only person indicted for lying (perjury) he certainly is not the only key participant that is lying.

3. Some way to differentiate donations for Marcy versus donations to FDL in general. It looks from this side of the table that both kinds of donations are processed identically. How do the powers that be know when a donation is for the book?

And finally, the donation in question should have been enough to register, which is why I am questioning whether it was received. We had been at a plateau for a while, and the entire purpose of this donation was to get things moving again.

Hopefully there will be more funds available after the election. I think a lot of us are stretching to support political candidates between now and then.

Best of luck with this work: we WILL make it happen.

Not only would this enhance the project, it would also be a reminder to donate.</p> Jennifer:
