Tom DeLay is a national embarrassment, a walking scandal. It is time for citizens to demand his resignation from Congress.
The scandals erupt everyday. Gambling money. Junkets paid for by register foreign agents and disgraced lobbyists. Dienfranchising voters with an illegally corporate-funded redistricting scheme. Enough is enough.
We launched an on-line petition campaign demanding that he go. When you sign this, your message will automatically be sent to your member of Congress.
We believe, like so many here at Daily Kos, that the pressure on DeLay has to come from other GOP members. That pressure won't come if we sit on our hands. We need to build heat in the districts by telling representatives that they must stop defending DeLay and join us in demanding his resignation.
That phase is next. The first phase is putting this demand on the table. The blogosphere can lead.
So, here are my requests:
- Sign this petition and tell your friends.
- Post the blog ad for this campaign on your blogs or at other sites. You can download it at the Daily DeLay (on the right). Link the blog ad to this URL: http://www.pcactionfund.org/withoutdelay.
Thanks -- let's force DeLay to resign.
