I'm donating to Barack Obama again. Right now. Who's with me?

Just listened to Michelle Bachmann on Hardball and I think this is a great time to show them that their smears aren't working.

11. Today's the last day for matching contributions.

Sorry, I donated through Obama's website today and not DU just to take advantage of the "matching" feature. I've already received an email message from the contributor I matched!

15. I was just thinking about doing this

I guess this is a sign. Funny how people do this, I wonder if they track the donations on a real time time line and match them up with events and announcements.

I'm getting into the 4 digit range here soon. I can't wait until this fucking election is over. I can't really afford this shit.

18. I just told my husband

we couldn't afford NOT to donate. He agree. :D It is stretching the budget a bit, though.

16. me! I just donated but I forgot to go thru DU this time!

sorry DU! I went thru DU last time, though:-)

I donated quite a lot (for us) this time -- and it felt great. Times are tough, but that just makes me want to give more to our party. they really are doing us proud this year! History in the making:-)

17. I just kicked in another $50

but I don't think I can afford much more. That's $100 for the month. I'm telling hubby it's my birthday present to myself, I guess.

26. I'm donating. That was a very disturbing show.

Listening to her and then Pat Buchanan has my emotions swirling in anger, sadness and disgust.

27. Yay! A thread about Obama in GD:P!

They are getting hard to find these days with all the ranting and raving about Republican talking points.

I think I'll toss him another "C" note.

31. I decided to give $250 after remembering how angry I was at the lies about health plan on radio

Edited on Fri Oct-17-08 06:48 PM by HughMoran

I was trying to work on my car and one of McCain's ads filled with already debunked lies (clearly debunked during the debate) came on the radio. I was screaming my head off about "those fucking filthy lying Republican trolls" - I think my neighbor may have heard me. He acts like a Republican troll too, though he doesn't do stickers or signs or anything else political.

33. Thank you.

That's very generous! But I sure do understand the anger. We don't have any neighbors at the moment, so I can yell all I want and only my dogs will hear me.

And picked up an 8'x4' sign for my store window which faces the most repuke area in my town. Can't wait to put it up, expecting egging or worse.
