Wes Clark Jr's post titled "Had Enough?" from Tuesday has struck a nerve in my head. The idea of people coming out ever Sunday at noon just to form a presence moves me for some reason. It's a start.

If anyone else is interested in coming out this Sunday (and future Sundays), please let me know and please provide some suggestions for where we should meet.

I haven't been to a rally or made a sign for decades, but I'll do this. I guess I've had enough.

I want to see a constitional amendment specifying a right to privacy. Twenty years ago, I wouldn't have thought it was necessary, but with our civil rights under attack, it's time that we spell this right out by amending our constitution.
Like the amendments in the Bill of Rights, the Privacy Amendment doesn't have to be too specific. That's what courts are for, to decide what those amendments mean in any given time in our history. Read More

A common meme in the mainstream media and talk radio regarding the War in Iraq is "So what if Bush manipulated intelligence and lied us into war? We're there now, so what are we going to do about it? We can't just cut and run. The bell cannot be unrung." This is followed by the usual description of anti-war Democrats as people who want to see the terrorists win and America lose, and the conclusion is always that all Americans must now support the President.

The weakness of the response to these comments by Democratic leaders or liberal commentators has surprised me, especially when the appropriate response is so clear, so simple: Read More

I have a lot of faith in the people who post here at DailyKos. I know there are folks here with experience in political organizing. I address this diary to those of you who know a thing or two about movements and change.

Some of you may hear in this diary, an echo of Pat Robertson's call for the assassination of Hugo Chavez. But it's not a human being I want to target, but rather the extreme Right Wing's stranglehold on a medium that reaches a huge percentage of voting America: AM Talk Radio.

We've been dismissing the daily Bund meetings that take place all over talk radio as the realm of crazies, white trash on SSI and closet Nazis, but unfortunately, the Right has so monopolized this medium that there are tens of thousands of communities in the United States for which Right Wing Talk Radio is literally the only available point of view. No other voices are heard, period. Read More
