wanted to let you know about a new petition I created on We the People,
a new feature on WhiteHouse.gov, and ask for your support. Will you add your
The petition:

Pardon ALL drug users. Save $billion$ and give millions a fresh
start by removing their convictions.

The USA has more prisoners than any other nation, at a cost of
approximately $24,000 each per year. Many are mere users. A Presidential
pardon returns these citizens to productive lives where they pay taxes and
raise families.

The impact would be bigger than the Presidential pardon of draft dodgers
40-years ago, and would go down in history as one of the most humanitarian
gestures in American history. At zero cost.

You can view and sign the petition here: http://wh.gov/...

Progressives are sometimes just too intelligent for the masses. Seriously. We tend to come to conclusions/suggestions based on in-depth analysis. Result = no sound bite = no media coverage. We MUST learn to keep it simple!

Back in the general election, I donated $10 to RNC just to see what they were up to...and I'm certain they've spent many times that trying to get a few more bucks. Ain't happening boys.

Today's email is just another in a long string following their standard scenario:
1) Here is why you should be afraid.
2) Scared enough to send us money?
3) If not, how about those left-wing bad guys waiting to nail you?
4) Scared now? No? Damn!

Our lesson for 2009: Fear Divides Us, Hope Unites!

Senator Lieberman has betrayed President-Elect Obama, his constituents, and all Democrats. We owe him, big-time! We can fulfill our debt by taking less than 5-minutes to communicate to the Dem power brokers. Please do it NOW. Thanks!
