$70,000 And Counting…. | |
| By: Jane Hamsher Friday August 8, 2008 10:00 am | |
Wow…and that’s only from the morning (on the east coast). That’s the largest amount of money we’ve ever raised in such a short period of time.
I suppose it’s only fitting. After all, August 8 is ….
The day we kicked Joe Lieberman out of the party!
Open Left was kind enough to add us to their ActBlue page for the day.
It’s a great way to celebrate. Do it for Joe.

President Obama's plan for direct student lending saves $8.7 billion by cutting unnecessary fees paid to Wall Street banks.
But if the Senate tries to pass a health care 'fix' through reconciliation without passing direct lending at the same time, there won't be another opportunity for an entire year.
Sign our petition to the Senate to save our students and pass direct student lending.

w00t! Money Bomb!!!111
I’m in.
Defeating JoLie in the CT Democratic primary was a milestone for liberals.
Thanks to Ned and his family for all their sacrifice and work.
you guys have to see kucinich here, it is great stuff, demanding an ongoing proceeding of impeachment even after the president leaves office
man, I love this guy

Rode my bicycle to work today, with only a fanny pack (no credit cards!). I pledged awhile ago, and will have to donate after work. Go, MoneyBomb, Go!!!
I’m in
I’ve plugged it here too (and donated obviously).
1,211 Supporters
Raised $ 83,250
I clicked the link and donated this morning. Then I was taken to a page where I could send an email to others, which I did. The next page had a message that I’d get an email before mine would be sent. I didn’t get the email and I didn’t get an acknowledgement that I donated. Should I donate again?
Donate early and donate often
…
I got verification emails very quickly.
That said, email can be flakey – Can you check your credit card activity online?
just checked mine – nothing yet from 3 hours ago
1238 donors have given $84,925!!!
Joe, we couldn’t have done it without you.
I hope the pace picks up. $85K is a long way from the “millions” we were hoping to raise with a money bomb. It has to be a big showy amount to get attention, as well as to accomplish the goals.
Good golly, I don’t see anywhere that we said millions. I’m pretty excited about $85,000 — and the day is young.
There ought to be a phone number on your credit card that you can call, and ask about new charges including ones from today.
What we need now is the day we kick him out of the caucus. Son of a bitch is riding around on McSFB’s campaign bus and slated to speak at the snake gathering. I thought they did the rattlesnake roundup in Texas or somewhere in the southwest. Oh, that’s right, these people are more like cottonmouths.
New Blue Texan
To relieve my anxiety, I took your advice “…and donate often” ;-)
Almost $95K now and it’s not even noon on the left coast ;-)
$100,000
