You know, when people ask me, "Well, if you don't think we should vote for the lesser evil, what should we do?" I now have a lot of video footage to show them.

Yeah, gotcha. I posted a sign somewhere, but it got moved somewhere else. So far, only one person wanted to pitch in.

Situation's changing quickly. We'll see what we can do.

Some of my Chicago people are doing support for this, and tell me they're worried about a raid now that most of the press have left to cover the Blagojevich mess.

Ugh.

I am always glad when you post about labor and food politics and other justice issues.

I went to donate and it looks like they won a settlment. Is it good? Their pics look happy.
