What Fires You Up?

3/01/2003

 

From a great friend:

"If the injustice is part of the necessary friction of the machine of government, let it go, let it go: perchance it will wear smooth - certainly the machine will wear out. ...but if it is of such a nature that it requires you to be the agent of injustice to another, then, I say, break the law. Let your life be a counter friction to stop the machine. What I have to do is to see, at any rate, that I do not lend myself to the wrong which I condemn."

Henry David Thoreau, 'Civil Disobedience', 1849

"But then you'll be on an Enemies' List."

"There are some Enemies' Lists people should want to be on. Hey, there are worse things than being on an Enemies' List."

"Name one."

"Being on a List of Collaborators."

WIN WITHOUT WAR COALITION This was posted on a political thread on a2k. It is a way for anyone to participate in protesting the war in Iraq through email or fax and by making phone calls at a preset time on the 26th. All you need to do is go to the site and register and you will be given a time to make your calls. I've already done it--please join me. (This is from a Fired Up Friend who has a friend named Garcon Noir...) On February 26th, you can join a massive march on Washington without leaving your living room. The Virtual March on Washington is a first-of-its-kind campaign from the Win Without War coalition. Working together, we will direct a steady stream of phone calls about one per minute, all day to every Senate office in the country, while at the same time delivering a constant stream of e-mails and faxes. Our message: Don’t Attack Iraq. Please help make the Virtual March a success. To register to send a free fax and make phone calls to Senate offices and the White House, visit:www.moveon.org/winwithoutwar
