ACTION ALERT: contact Senator Feinstein fast!
Linked to groups: Redlands DFA
Everyone Here is my email I sent to Diane Feinstein today:
Senator,
Why do you continue to rubber stamp everything George Bush wants? I strongly urge you to vote against Mukasey as Attorney General. How can any democrat support a man who will allow torture. YOU WILL BE RESPONSIBLE (WITH SCHUMER) for putting our troops in harms way by continuing to allow torture.
A VOTE FOR MUKASEY IS A VOTE FOR TORTURE!
The Democratic party DOES NOT support torture, and neither should you. Do you want to be grouped together with Lieberman as a Bush Cronie? If you allow Mukasey to be the A.G. then I will urge my associations with DFA, Move-ON.org, and local democratic clubs to campaign against you actively with all of our grassroots resources. If it is possible we, will try to use the same law that removed Gray Davis to recall your term. You should remember that you serve our will, not your corportate sponsors.
A concerned democrat & resident of CA,
Robert Najera
You all should contact her and urge her to change her position again on one of Bush's appointees. Mukasey will not keep Bush under control legally, he will rubber stamp all Bush's policies. Lets over flow the senator's email box with demands for peace and an opposition to MUKASEY.
Contact her through her website. http://feinstein.senate.gov/public/

Here is your link to the DLC list, please tell me where Obama's name is? I don't see Richardson on the list either.

I think you owe them both an apology.

Barack Obama is under Illinois and Bill Richardson is under New Mexico:

Thank you Robert.
I called yesterday and I wrote earlier today to Her and Chuckles Schumer.

They obviously are not representing their party and it's values or their constiuents voice, so who are they representing?

Democratic party seeks to win evangelicals, but risks leaving behind their base.

Dean said in an interview recently that the party is only writing off the "hard right."
"The chairman of the Democratic National Committee concedes that some voters might be out of reach - namely people who look to James Dobson's Focus on the Family for voting guidance.
"We're only writing off the hard right that beats up on gays and women," Dean said."

Well, trouble is that many in our party are taking it too far and still trying to appeal to everyone. Can't do it, never could. Won't work. Energize your base, Howard said in 2003, and he surely did that. They need to stop trying to energize Bush's base.

California's Dianne Feinstein*, U.S. Senator; CA is a member of Bush's DLC and is on the DLC list, as apparently is Chuck Schumer if he votes for Mukasey's torture, even though his name isn't on the list.
Gray Davis, Former Governor; CA is also a member of the DLC that is on the list.
DLC members COOPERATE WITH THE REPUBLICAN EXTREME. The only way out is to get rid of them just like Gray Davis, but I'm hoping for a simpler way of voting them out of office in the Primary Elections.
VOTE FOR THE ONES THAT ARE NOT DLC -- IT IS NOT THAT COMPLICATED.

Waterboarding is torture - I did it myself, says US advisor
By Leonard Doyle in Washington
Published: 01 November 2007
When the US military trains soldiers to resist interrogation, it uses a torture technique from the Middle Ages, known as "waterboarding". Its use on terror suspects in secret US prisons around the world has come to symbolise the Bush administration's no-nonsense enthusiasm for the harshest questioning techniques.
Although waterboarding has been considered torture for over a century and the US military is banned from using it, controversy over its continuing use by the CIA may be about to derail the appointment of President Bush's candidate for US Attorney-General.
Michael Mukasey, a retired federal judge from New York and a veteran of several al-Qa'ida trials, was questioned by a Senate committee on Tuesday and refused to say whether waterboarding was illegal.
Instead, he called the technique "repugnant to me" and promised to investigate further if he was confirmed in the job. He explained that he could not say yet whether the practice was illegal because he had not been briefed on the secret methods of US interrogators and he did not want to put the CIA officers who used it in "personal legal jeopardy".
Even though Congress banned waterboarding in the US military in 2005, it did not do so for the CIA. As a result, Mr Mukasey told senators, it was uncertain whether this technique or other harsh methods constituted "cruel, inhuman or degrading" treatment. His answers did not satisfy the Democrats, however, and his approval now hinges on whether he is willing to say the torture method is against US law.
In a further embarrassment for Mr Bush yesterday, Malcolm Nance, an advisor on terrorism to the US departments of Homeland Security, Special Operations and Intelligence, publicly denounced the practice. He revealed that waterboarding is used in training at the US Navy's Survival, Evasion, Resistance and Escape School in San Diego, and claimed to have witnessed and supervised "hundreds" of waterboarding exercises. Although these last only a few minutes and take place under medical supervision, he concluded that "waterboarding is a torture technique – period".
The practice involves strapping the person being interrogated on to a board as pints of water are forced into his lungs through a cloth covering his face while the victim's mouth is forced open. Its effect, according to Mr Nance, is a process of slow-motion suffocation.
Typically, a victim goes into hysterics on the board as water fills his lungs. "How much the victim is to drown," Mr Nance wrote in an article for the Small Wars Journal, "depends on the desired result and the obstinacy of the subject.
"A team doctor watches the quantity of water that is ingested and for the physiological signs which show when the drowning effect goes from painful psychological experience to horrific, suffocating punishment, to the final death spiral. For the uninitiated, it is horrifying to watch." ....Click here to explore further and read the full article: http://news.independent.co.uk/world/amer...
#49.11/310:30AM puddle: (From unanswered Hillary thread #53.11/3 11:01AM in reference to my #45 post to Linda*in*SFNM unanswered)
Genius that you are, Puddle, I am certain that you can come up with something more than, "Are you a moron?"
It comes to mind that Pinky is there with you saying, "Duh. What are we going to do tomorrow Puddle?" and you respond, "What do we do everyday Pinky? We are going to ask people on the blog, Are you a moron? -- because our limited ability precludes us from even marginal understanding, Pinky."
puddle is on dial-up and probably resents super-long posts instead of links(besides a dislike for Kucinich)
It's all good. (another plug for the Party party for those of you casting about for a third party)
Halloween would be a good time to kick off a campaign for the Party party.
US accused of torture
Ian Munro Herald Correspondent in New York
October 31, 2007
THE United States's willingness to resort to harsh interrogation techniques in its so-called war on terror undermined human rights and the international ban on torture, a United Nations spokesman says.
Manfred Nowak, UN Special Rapporteur on torture, said the US's standing and importance meant it was a model to other countries which queried why they were subject to scrutiny when the US resorted to measures witnessed at Guantanamo Bay and Abu Ghraib prison.
Mr Nowak was speaking after releasing his finding that the use of torture was routine and widespread in Sri Lanka ,despite laws against it.
"I am very concerned about the undermining of the absolute prohibition of torture by interrogation methods themselves in Abu Grahib, in Guantanamo Bay and others, but also by rendition and the whole CIA secret places of detention. All that is really undermining the international rule of law in general and human rights but also the prohibition of torture," said Mr Nowak.
"(Other countries) say why are you criticising us if the US, the most democratic country with the oldest history of human rights, if they are torturing you should first go there. It has a negative effect because the US is a very powerful and important country and many other countries take the US as a model."
His comments come amid continuing controversy over whether the use of waterboarding - which simulates drowning - is torture. US senators are threatening to stop the appointment of Michael Mukasey, President Bush's new nominee for Attorney-General, following Mr Mukasey's refusal to condemn waterboarding at judiciary committee hearings recently.
Reports have linked CIA interrogations of al-Qaeda suspects, including alleged 9/11 planner Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, to the technique.
President Bush has said the US does not restort to torture, but his administation has refused to say if waterboarding has been used. During waterboarding a cloth is used to cover a prisoner's mouth and water poured over it, triggering the gag reflex.
Commenting on his investigation into Sri Lanka, Mr Nowak said that the use of torture in counter-terrorism operations was prone to become routine.
During his visit there this month he received many "consistent and credible" allegations from detainees who claimed they were ill-treated by police.
He said that he was alerted to a new form of torture which his medical aide had initially thought was impossible. It involved individuals being suspended only by their thumbs which were bound together so they could be hoisted into the air.
He said he had received two independent accounts of its use in Army camps. The effects were verified by medical examination. Six months after the alleged incidents the individuals had not regained use of their thumbs. ... http://www.smh.com.au/articles/2007/10/3...
CLINTON OBAMA?
http://www.blackagendareport.com/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=419&Itemid=34
With a full year to go before the 2008 presidential election the handwriting is already on the wall. The Democratic nominees and probable winners in 2008 will be Hillary Clinton and Barack Obama.
In US presidential politics, elections are often anticlimactic. For Democratic and Republican wings of America's permanent ruling party, the all-important selection which precedes the election isn't about poll numbers, votes or the citizens that cast them. It's about winning the favor of military contractors, the banking and financial sectors and Big Oil. It's about reassuring insurance and pharmaceutical companies, cozying up to agribusiness, the cable and telecom monopolies, allaying the fears of chambers of commerce, and wooing Hollywood.
Only those who jump through these hoops merit favorable coverage in the corporate media as so-called serious candidates.
Failure on a candidate's part to stick to the script is severely punished. Any lack of will to reassure the military contractors, Big Oil, Big Insurance, Big Pharma and Big Money in general results in a candidate being labeled “unelectable,” through boycotts by the big money donors and the imposition of kiss-of-death news blackouts on their campaigns. Four years ago ABC News exec Ted Koppel demanded Kucinich, Sharpton and Moseley-Braun withdraw from the race and pulled ABC's coverage from their campaigns the next day, as did NBC, CNN, and the other networks. This season's antiwar and pro health care Democrats Mike Gravel and Dennis Kucinich are routinely disinvited to forums, excised from coverage, omitted from public opinion polls and surveys, and their images deleted from news photos of presidential forums.

Martha Miller, you continuously keep posting incorrect information.
Why is that?
I've provided you full lists and links, but you keep posting a lie. I'm starting to believe it is intentional.
Al Gore disassociated himself witlh the DLC when he left the Clinton Administration and has not been a member for many years.
This is the last public membership list from 2003

I would highlight them, but the highlight doesn't work.

The DEMOCRATIC LEADERSHIP COUNCIL, DLC, is the political arm of the 20% minority professional middle class and culture and DOES NOT IN ANY WAY REPRESENT THE CLASS AND CULTURAL INTERESTS OF THE 7O% MAJORITY COMMON POPULATION OF THE UNITED STATES.
The DLC does an excellent job of representing the interests of their own 20% minority class and culture, the professional middle class, and of COOPERATING and TOADYING UP to the American aristocracy for political advantage. However, the DLC does not, have not and will not represent the interests of a class and culture that is NOT THEIR OWN, the class and culture of the 70% majority common population of the United States; NEVER HAVE, AND NEVER WILL.
The DLC, as leadership of the Democratic Party, are in political DUOPOLY with the American aristocracy POLITICALLY REPRESENTED BY THE REPUBLICAN PARTY, in a joint effort to EXCLUDE the 70% majority common population of the United States from BEING REPRESENTED by a political party and EXCLUDED from representation in the government of the United States as a class and culture.
The United States is based upon a MODEL OF GOVERNMENT established by the Ancient Greeks and Romans. In the Greek and Roman models of governance the common population were SLAVES and SERVANTS of the aristocracy and the middle class.
The DLC and the Republican Party represent democracy that is DUOPOLISTIC, that represents the classes and cultures of the American aristocracy and the professional middle class to the EXCLUSION of the 70% majority common population of the United States. In the political scheme of governance by the American aristocracy and professional middle class DUOPOLY, the 70% majority common population of the United States are relegated to WAGE SLAVERY, POVERTY, SERVITUDE and SUBSERVIENCE IN GOVERNANCE, LAW, and subservient behavior in their day to day lives.
It is time for liberty and freedom for the 70% majority common population of the United States as a class and culture, rather than the continual pablum of liberty and freedom for the American aristocracy and the professional middle class, as has been the case since 1776, with liberty and freedom for the 70% majority class and culture being a hollow meaningless trope used to SUPPRESS, OPPRESS, and TYRANNIZE the 70% majority common population of the United States, and force the 70% majority common population of the United States to be UNWILLINGLY USED AS SLAVES, WAGE SLAVES, and SERVANTS WITHOUT SUBSTANTIAL BENEFIT, in service to the American aristocracy and their COOPERATIVE TOADIES of the professional middle class, represented in the Democratic Party by the Democratic Leadership Council, DLC.

DFA. Don't you understand that?
Whatever your point is, you would serve it better by explaining instead of disparaging.
Please forgive me for asking again, but where has DFA said it will throw out votes?
Ever heard of a link? It's very inconsiderate to post such a long list. And whatever your cause is, you injure it by doing so.
No, the Feinstein link doesn't work. I can't get thru to either her or Schumer.
Comcast is starting to mess with its customers. Anyone else having problems with Comcast or getting thru to these senators?
I prefer to believe Barack Obama.
I think it's great that so many DCDems are now treating the DLC like leprosy. It's a start to doing away with it.
Feinstein is a loser, a non-progressive, which way isn't the wind blowing Dem, who always looks for some way to stand out from the crowd, good or bad.
Well, she certainly is managing to do that again. Unfortunately, she does not come up for re-election in 2008.
I wouldn't contact DiFi or Schumer any more than I would Bush since they all hold my views in equal contempt.

I have heard the FCC is "looking into" Comcast complaints. So don't expect any quick and easy solutions or maybe none at all.

Dennis Kucinich is a smarmy Pro-Life opportunist
26Apr07
Last week at the Barack Obama event at the Agganis, I got in to an argument with one of the Dennis Kucinich supporters. My friends thought I was an idiot for even engaging the guy, but I had to. He approached me as I stood in line with thousands of college students, energized by a candidate with a real chance of winning that represents a new breed of politics.
“Support Dennis Kucinich for President,” he said as handing me some photocopied sheet of paper.
“Sorry, I don’t support pro-lifers,” I responded.
“Dennis Kucinich is NOT pro-life,” he almost screamed back.
“Eh, yes he is. Check out vote-smart.org. 95% approval rating from the National Right to Life Coalition.”
Like he hadn’t even heard me or, didn’t want to respond to the actual fact I had presented him, the guy just started getting angrier and angrier, yelling about he “KNOWS Dennis Kucinich and KNOWS he supports choice.”
Well, folks, Vote-Smart.org, the independent, non-partisan think-tank devoted to tracking and cataloging all federal elected official’s and candidate’s positions on the major issues in American politics agrees with me, somewhat”
2001-2002 Representative Kucinich supported the interests of the National Right to Life Committee 71 percent in 2001-2002.
2001 Representative Kucinich supported the interests of the Planned Parenthood 10 percent in 2001.
2001 Representative Kucinich supported the interests of the NARAL Pro-Choice America 0 percent in 2001.

What strikes me about Kucinich supporters is how nasty they are. I had an experience similar to the one described by Ryan. I was walking to a rally before the MTV debates at Faneuil Hall carrying a Howard Dean sign and two men started yelling that I was stupid for supporting Dean and that Kucinich was the only candidate against the war. It was on a back street in Boston and I was actually a bit frightened by their unwarranted viciousness. Don’t his supporters realize that peace begins at home?
I find Dennis Kucinich robotic and insincere. The pro-choice switch prior to his first run for president is just a symptom of his hypocrisy. In the 2004 Iowa primary, he told his (very few) delegates to vote for Edwards rather than Kerry, Dean or Gephardt. It seems to me that if he were ideologically against the war, he would have selected Dean - the only other anti-Iraq war candidate.
Kucinch is a giant joke. The Democrats’ version of Alan Keyes. His job is to make the left look looney and the right-leaning candidates to look sensibly moderate. I wish he would go back to Cleveland and open up a New Age Bookstore or falafel stand.
Does anybody know if DFA required folks to sign-up at the DFA-Link before they could vote in the Presidential Pulse Poll?
What would happend if the Republicians asked folks to vote in a specific way to effect this poll? Is there anyway to determine if that were to happen?
