23 Days to a New Chance for America!

The tidal wave approaches the shore. Republican hegemony appears doomed. The Punditocracy is bleating with fear. There is talk of the ReThugs losing 30, 40, 50 seats in the House. But as the dread and horrible Kos sez: Dat’s just talk. We gotta keep workin’ to hammer the Republican Party into scrap. I agree now is not the time to lay back and cruise. There are plenty of important races which hang in the balance Debra Bowen needs our help. Webb is making a monkey out of ‘maccaca man’ but he’s not home yet. Even the bird-brain Tweety is talking about Webb taking it to Allen, the guy who uses the word ‘nigger’ about every other sentence, in Virginia. And the candidate who means the most to our hopes to break the ReThug hold on the Senate Ned Lamont trails Joe the ‘Liarmann’ in CT. McNerney is making things hot for Pombo right here in CA.

So come on hit our ActBlue! page and if you’re short of cash go to any of the websites linked there and see how you can help.

As Thomas Jefferson said upon finishing the work on the Constitution:

‘We have Democracy by the majority who participate.’

Are you gonna participate or is Karl Rove gonna win this one too?

    Where exactly did Thomas Jefferson say, “We have Democracy by the majority who participate.” The reason I ask is because this is what he said about Democracy, “A democracy is nothing more than mob rule, where fifty-one percent of the people may take away the rights of the other forty-nine.” Please site the location for the quote, because what Thomas Jefferson said and what you claim he said are in contradiction to each other.

    This is what he said:

    “We in America do not have government by the majority. We have government by the majority who participate.” Thomas Jefferson

    If you spend a few hours reading the many quotations that come down to us from him you will find more than a few which seem contradictory.

    He was, after all, a politician as well as a great thinker.
