Ok, I admit I posted an item titled "Senator Dodd Too Lazy to Defend Democracy" because he said impeaching the Charlatan for war crimes and other high crimes against democracy was a waste of time. But apparently he has had enough of the proto-fascists and their Darth Sidious campaign to turn America into a corporatocracy. According to his campaign website there are plans underfoot to disregard his hold on the FISA bill, so he has pledged to filibuster the bill. Because of his willingness to defend democracy now, I pledge to contribute $10 for every hour he filibusters the FISA reform bill on the Senate floor. That's more than the new federal minimum hourly wage that we have paid for in blood spilled in Iraq. So if you enjoy reading this blog and want to help restore democracy, make a similar pledge to his presidential campaign. If politicians only work for campaign contributions, we should pay them for something worthwhile--saving our democracy.
