Please?
Hi! I need your help. I just picked a fight. You see - in Alabama, it's illegal to put campaign signs on the state right of way. So imagine my surprise (not!) when republicans running for our STATE COURTS spammed our highways and interstates horribly. Just on three exits, there were a total of 45 signs. They put them one right after another, right on the side of the roadway. These are the people seeking to be our highest judges in the state - and they are breaking the law. This isn't new - it's standard operating procedure. It seeks like every spring in Alabama, just as the flowers spring forth from the ground, so do a whole crop of corrugated plastic that has never once influenced my vote whatsoever. Nor anyone elses - they are just litter on a stick. So I've decided to fight back against another republican breaking the law - directly.
So I've been giving one of the candidates who is one of the worst offenders some grief about it on her blog. Sure enough, as soon as I did, my comments didn't disappear, they just got shuffled down the page by a frenzy of little posts.

See the comments of her threads.
But I am getting ahead of myself... You'll need some background on what I've been up to out on the highways...

So... now on to the online action help I need from the KOS community. Give her blog the power of free speech. Take a moment to take this and the other republican Nabors to task for breaking the law. Anyone with a blogspot can post. It seems to be open posting still. Is it NSA spying, or a serious breach of civil liberties? No. But they say think globally, and act locally, so here I go. Help me out - get this up on that recommend list for a little while and let them feel the power of the living web and the kos community.
Please post any other ideas you've got for me. I'm doubtful the local media will even cover this, but they might if enough people ask. Birmingham TV is ABC3340, NBC13, FOX6, and CBS42.
