Wes spoke of how important this 2006 election is, the most important we've faced. He said this was so not just because of foreign policy and the state of the world but because the Constitution and our government as we know it is in danger.

He said that Rummy and Cheney, I think, want to reverse Watergate and give the executive branch unlimited powers. He said this country is in real danger, abroad and at home, and that we are in danger of seeing our government change into something it will be hard to recognize. He spoke of the betrayal of those who wrote the Constitution. He really really stressed this danger to the Constitution. He seems very worried about it. I don't think I've seen him speak that urgently about it before...As scary, in its own way, as the mess this Administration has created around the world.
He spoke of how Congress had abdicated their responsibility, how important it was that we get good people in to replace the rubber stamp, do nothing COngress in there now, people who will take seriously their responsibility to provide the checks and balances that our government depends upon. He said Paul is one of those men. He spoke of how Paul knows diplomacy, knows you sometimes have to talk with people you don't like. (For those who don't know....this, from Paul's website- "Paul spent several years working on foreign policy and national security issues as a member of the Clinton Administration. At the U.S. Department of State, he gained tremendous experience working on a wide range of international security matters - from nonproliferation to arms control to peacekeeping to Middle East policy. He also had the opportunity to serve three American Ambassadors to the United Nations - Madeleine Albright, Bill Richardson, and Richard Holbrooke.") Wes also spoke of how Paul left his job to run in NJ and represent the people of that District. He also asked everyone there to dig deep and max out in contributions to Paul's campaign. He said if we lose our government as we know it, we'll all be losing a lot more than $2100 (which I guess is the max contribution).
