Check out our little store: t-shirts, bumper stickers and more. Profits will be donated to Operation USO Care Package. Richelle did a fantastic job on the logos.
Sorry for the deleted comments folks
Sometimes I need to deal with comment spam posted here. Today it got brutal and I lost a bunch of legitimate comment postings. One way I deal with this is to close every comments thread on the site after the post has just about fallen off my home page. It takes work, but ya do what ya gotta do.
Thank you
A thank you for all those who have defended us and continue to defend us. This veterans day and every day.
Rule of Law is an American Value
But apparently it’s not for President Bush’s choice to replace Ashcroft – Alberto R. Gonzales.
Write your representatives and let them know that the former counsel of Enron isn’t fit for the post. We want a law enforcer. Not someone who writes the law as he goes along.
I like the theme. I’m going to continue it.
We’re re-connecting, but marketers have been working against it for the longest time
Tonight on frontline will be a documentary I hope you’ll take the time to see. Rushkoff, the author of the documentary (Wired) gives voice to a concern I’ve probably chatted the ear off of one too many people – that marketer’s slicing us into smaller and smaller sellable demographics is bad for our health, and he recognizes a truth that I believe in my heart – we have a need to connect to other people.
Should be an interesting show.
Bush vs. Kerry: Email Newsletters Rated
Jakob Nielsen rates Bush campaign email newsletters as far more effective and lists the reasons why. For the national campaign, I’m forced to agree, but if he were to judge the campaign in Pennsylvania, Nielsen would have give the Kerry campaign proper compliments on the criteria he is using.

Every vote must count
Voters Unite has an easy to follow list of voting machine troubles across the country.
Even if you are one of those who feel that no election deciding fraud has taken place, you need to admit that these kinds of problems are unacceptable.
I’m looking forward to seeing a resolution on these concerns (Wired).
You agree that every vote must count, don’t you?
The rise (return?) of open source politics
Not too long ago, we talked about how we were “bowling alone”. We were moving towards a disconnected future: disconnected family, disconnected friends, disconnected past times, and ultimately – disconnected democracy.
Tools have emerged that empower us to reconnect (The Nation), just when stakes have become highest in a generation. And we are using them! This isn’t as sudden as some might suggest, and it’s been happening under the radar of one too many pundits. Myself included. I got a feeling politics will be redefined as much as the music and publishing industries have been.
Despite the outcome of the election – I think it’s an exciting time.
