Demand that the Bailout Legislation Be Rejected

We are witnessing a bankers' coup d’etat. In the name of saving the economy from a crisis created by their own greed and immense profits, the biggest bankers have taken a country and a people hostage.

“Give us your money and tear up what’s left of your Constitution or we will sink your economy,” is the message from Wall Street and the Bush Administration. “Give us the power and money we demand or you will be left jobless from a new economic depression."

Under the pretext of the banking crisis, the Bush Administration is changing the way this country operates. This is not simply taking trillions of dollars from the people and giving it to the richest bankers to do with as they see fit.

1. I faxed eight letters today -
(Pelosi, Reid, Paulson, my two senators, my rep, and the two repubs) - should I do this one too?

4. If you've got that much enthuseasm
maybe you should get more creative. How about crap in a box and mail it to Reid with a bottle of shoe polish? Include a note asking if he would please help you out, since he and Nancy seem so good at polishing turds. :shrug:

5. Done, with just a hint of a threat of throwing them out of office if
they vote for this debacle. That felt good.
