Reply #19: Probably Won't Leave...

More than likely take stock in what went wrong, and see what can be done in 2008.

Do all that I can to support Obama Barack and Dennis Kucinich (hopefully as SENATORS), and do a lot of letter writing to Congress and Senate in major effort to block the worst of what Bush may do.

To start, send a letter to everyone in Congress saying NO MORE WARS. Not Iran, not North Korea, not Cuba, just say no.

Then, another letter to every liberal in Congress saying FIGHT CONSERVATIVE SUPREME COURT APPOINTMENTS.

Then another letter to Congress about vouchers.

Fight hard to make sure that the Defense of Marriage Act did not prohibit federally recognized civil unions if it got a chance again.

I'd probably try to get more active with www.moveon.org, and possibly the Green Party, in an effort to pull the dems harder to the left. Especially if it turns out that that's what costs us the election.

My mom and most of my elders live in Maryland, and they are probably not going to move. I need to be near them as they age. So leaving the US isn't really a choice until they pass on.

But in the back of my mind, I've been eyeing the Caribbean.
