"Because NOBODY puts Baby (or Sane People) in the corner...
they may make our news and elections into a JOKE but we need to draw a line at our reality competitions!"

PLEASE SHARE WITH YOUR FRIENDS & COLLEAGUES!
Join Network For Progress as raise awareness about one of the biggest threats America faces today....Bristol Palin winning Dancing With The Stars.
Even if you don’t watch the show, after seeing the reaction of my Mom when the very talented pop star and dancer Brandy was voted off last Tuesday I realized that FOR MILLIONS THIS COULD BECOME THE BIGGEST POLITICAL INJUSTICE OF 2010. (DWTS is the #1 show in America with 20.6 million viewers last Monday according to Nielsen estimates)
Lots of people have been supportive but many are saying: "It’s just a TV Show!" OR "Are you serious?" Yes I am.
Is FOX just TV shows? Is Daily Show just a TV Show?
This is the media narrative and popularity contest that millions of voters, activists and even our political leaders get sucked into and we need to control it....not let it control us.
Maureen Dowd even complained about the "Palin" straw poll in her Sunday column: http://www.nytimes.com/...
I do sympathize with this being only a politician’s daughter but she is playing the adult political game by pretending she’s a "star" and I still would have never suggested this event if it wasn’t obvious that BRISTOL IS SURVIVING ON ORGANIZED TEA PARTY VOTING CAMPAIGNS (DWTS is also the #1 show among Republicans) THAT TOTALLY IGNORE HER LACK OF TALENT OR CHARISMA to ruin the sprit of the competition via seven straight weeks of avoiding elimination despite terrible scores by the judges.
This is free air time for Palin 2012 as Sarah is in the audience almost every week.
Unfortunately, since the voting results are secret we have no idea what we’re up against SO EVERY VOTE COUNTS.
So, let’s exercise our rights as Americans to pool our efforts to VOTE FOR DIRTY DANCING's JENNIFER GREY so we can ensure MERIT is still rewarded in America! (some have suggested Kyle Massey but he is clearly the underdog and if people split the vote Bristol can win)
Don’t even do it for your friends or family.
Don’t even do it because you hate Sarah Palin.
Do it for Patrick Swayze. Rest His Soul.

*ABOUT NETWORK FOR PROGRESS
Founded by members of the Generation Obama-Washington, DC chapter (launched 2007) and in development to officially launch on the 4th Anniversary of Obama For America on 2/10/2011 to counter the organizing buzz of the Tea Party on the Right, "Network For Progress" is an interactive and creative grassroots political, civic, professional and social leadership community of Americans (including Democrats, Progressives, Independents, Republicans and those in between that comprised young people and many other under-served constituencies) who were inspired by the MAINSTREAM MAJORITY created by President Obama’s "YES WE CAN" MOVEMENT OF HOPE AND CHANGE and seek to continue this cause through connecting, engaging and sharing with these supporters the relationships, ideas, news, information, resources and activities that will provide us with the tools to BECOME OUR OWN "OBAMA" who is empowered to bring PROGRESS to our professional and personal lives as well as our town, our state, our nation and our world as we approach 2012 and beyond.
"Network For Hope. Network For Change. Network For PROGRESS."
