Jane and FDL… how grateful I am to weather the disappointment with a sense of empowerment and hope thanks to your spirit and organization!

We are not to be “finesseed-messed with” by BO or our congress! Truth to Power and … power to the People.

“What are you going to do, vote for McCain?” Obama taunts. Of course, he knows you aren’t going to.

Obama teaches Constitutional law. Yet, he does not have the courage or integrity to stand up for the Constitution. What more do you need to know? Obama stated that he would vote against and filibuster any law that contained telecom immunity. Yet, he cowered and caved. Even his ‘rationalizations” were unintelligible and full of misinformation, leaving no doubt to anyone that when Bush said “BOO!”, he would run as fast as he could from his principles.

It is clear that Obama is going to continue to take positions that are diametrically opposed to the progressives who fuel his campaign in order to demonstrate to the Main Stream Media that he is a “Serious” person who is not beholden to the “radical, fringe left.” FISA is only the first of many betrayals to come, I am afraid.

Send your Obama dollars to www.ActBlue.com , www.EFF.org , www.aclu.org and support true progressives.

I am so glad Doug Tudor is finally getting some attention in the netroots world!!!

Doug Tudor is a true progressive who doesn’t have to worry about looking weak on national defense or security. He began serving his country and “standing the watch” roughly the same year his opponent, Congressman Adam Putnam, was first able to attend PG-13 movies without an adult. Doug is a progressive Democrat who served his country for 20 years in the US Navy while putting himself through school to earn undergraduate and law degrees. By contrast, the greatest accomplishment of Adam Putnam (the 37th wealthiest US Congressman) was having the good fortune to be born into a wealthy family of citrus growers.

Doug is a fantastic candidate, a great public speaker, and a progressive you can count on to do the right thing. Please, please, please contribute to Doug’s campaign at http://www.teamtudor.org/contribute.asp
