How You--Yes You--Can End the War (and all sorts of fine activities)
Washington Free Press ^ | March/April 2006 | David Swanson

* Don't restrict yourself to letter writing, phone calling, emailing, and blogging. Organize protests outside and inside media outlets that spread lies and refuse to report truths. Include as a target of these actions polling companies that refuse to conduct or report polls on important issues, such as impeachment.

* Don't restrict these efforts to this country. Thank the international media outlets that do a good job. Go after those that do not. Write to media outlets in those countries still left in the so-called "Coalition of the Willing" and let them know that Americans would appreciate them withdrawing their symbolic forces.

* Write to the media in Iraq and let them know that the majority of Americans agree with the majority of Iraqis in supporting an end to the occupation. Read blogs and independent and international reports from Iraq, and spread that news in this country.

* Focus on those parts of government where the bribes are smaller: our state and local legislatures. Push for bills to bring the National Guard home and to test veterans for depleted uranium. And push state legislatures to send impeachment charges to the House of Representatives.

* Support whistleblowers and remember that we have friends and potential friends throughout the Bush Administration. Encourage resistance from within and truthtelling.

* Reach out to Muslim groups. Organize community and other religious and activist groups to hold events to support Muslims and protect their rights. This is far more important than might at first be apparent. This directly confronts the Bush Administration's strategy for making us afraid.

* Reach out to the United Nations. Call and write. Let them know that John Bolton does not speak for Americans.

Like every single left-wing liberal-controlled MSM outlet (except maybe FNC)?

Reach out to Muslim groups.

So they can cut your hand off?

The more progress we see in Iraq (like the new government formed the other day) the more desperate the useless lunatic coward Left become.

I have a suggestion for them that will certainly grab world attention to their plight of President Bush succeeding and Iraq becoming a huge success:

* Mass self-immolation. Gather yourselves in huge masses, douse yourselves with generous quantities of gasoline and light a match.

Seems like EVERYbody wants the MSM to be on the opposite side.

If we don't start prosecuting and jailing seditionists like this a$$hole soon, we're doomed. The 1st Amendment is not a suicide pact.
