Do you know how many times I posted on passing VAWA? When it was up for a vote, we had so much outrage on DU at that time on other PBO issues. VAWA never mattered. It sunk every damn time.

Me and so many others, they sank like a stone. It was so disheartening.

I made it personal one time after reading another OP that died. It was for signing the petition for VAWA to pass. I spoke of my own experience.Yes that got attention. It saddens me that there is more passion on how to make Obama fail here than it is to right the wrongs.

Sorry your post sunk, yet together we have a voice.
