1. Yes we are. I'll say what I said throughout the primaries
If we don't get Universal Single Payer National Health Insurance I won't be alive to see the 2012 election.

And get it VERY SOON!

2. There's a difference between "for our lives" and "how we live"
Against FISA? Yes, for our lives, because without checks on a tyrannical state anything is possible.

Against Terrorists? Um. Sure, but my bet is that the state would kill me first.

Fighting for lifestyle? To use a hummer to get to our favorite grocery store 15 miles away because they have that awesome new mustard? Or to stay willfully ignorant to the people who make our 50 variations on a theme of black t-shirt purchased new? Nah, I won't fight for that.
