Well, I'll fess up here. I'm on a listserv for the Lafayette, IN area Dean supporters, and I copied-and-pasted Kos' "Gore Subverts Democratic Process" post, with appropriate attribution, of course. But the bottom lines, which I added myself, read as follows:
Sometimes it takes a piece like that to remind me that the whole "takeyour country back" bit isn't lip service. Some of the people outsidethe campaign smirk and nod when I throw that "I want my country back"line at them. They smirk becuase they don't understand, and I know fullwell why they smirk: I'm a cynic, too.
But the fact remains, we're doing it. All of us, together, are makingsuch a damn racket around the country that even the man who many peoplethink actually won the last presidential election now has our attention.
That's pretty incredible. And it is because of you. Good work!
I wanted to post it up here in my diary, too, because I think it desrves a highlight. No comments to this are necessary unless you want to flame me or something.
Peace (and for once, a closing without a </RANT> tag!)
