    sending out email blasts today, and is trying to line up a meeting with Attorney General Eric Holder to present signatures to him.

  2. This is great. And that is a lot of people signing on.  Wonderful.

    If this were the only issue for Holder, it would be great.  Bushco made such a f*cking mess of everything and violated so many laws that are are dozens of things that also need his attention.  A very brief list in addition to this:

    *gitmo

    *extraordinary renditions/black sites

    *the federal death penalty

    *the cocaine/crack inequality

    *mandatory minimum sentences

    *signing statements

  3. (On a good note, Michael Moore’s site has picked up on Appointing a Special Prosecutor — See Do Something [I had e-mailed them about 3 weeks ago, but nothing happened], and David Swanson has it up again on his site site and Democrats.com sent out an e-mail to sign and call representatives today.)  And, me?  I keep sending out e-mails to “invite” everyone to join in the cause of justice and democracy!!!!  And, well?  All I can say is that I hope we can effectuate that which needs to happen for the future of this country — accountability.

    Please, anyone who has not yet signed on to Appointing a Special Prosecutor to Investigate the War Crimes of the Bush Administration, please do so — this is the most important and sole means of turning this country around that we, collectively, have!  Thank you for ALL of us!

  5. Signed petition today.

    Great job, everyone!

  6. 72 people have signed this Petition.

    And it’s only been up for a couple days!

    I think I should start making a long, long list of things that Holder needs to handle.  My first shot had 6 things.  Since then, I’ve found a few dozen others…

    And yes I meant roli.  Its a term Tahoe coined for when you get on a multiple roll.

    I got a big smile yesterday when I read Bobs email and the petition and DD were in it.
