Do you want to know who you are?
“Do you want to know who you are? Don't ask. Act! Action will delineate and define you.”
-- Thomas Jefferson

“Of liberty I would say that, in the whole plenitude of its extent, it is unobstructed action according to our will. But rightful liberty is unobstructed action according to our will within limits drawn around us by the equal rights of others. I do not add 'within the limits of the law,' because law is often but the tyrant's will, and always so when it violates the right of an individual.”

-- Thomas Jefferson

It's time for action. Let's take a cue from our Mexican American FRIENDS, and take to the streets this summer! If Bush wants to invade Iran, let's invade Washington D.C.!!

2. Ole Tom was pretty sharp
It reminds me of a bumper sticker I saw awhile back:

"Don't tell me you are a Christian, let me figure it out for myself."

3. Ah, my state was a cradle of revolutionary thinkin at one time...
Do take a cue from Latinos/Latinas all over America.

Did you notice how the Republican spin in the Senate chaned after that weekend of demonstrations with .5 million in LA and a few 100 k elsewhere. They were deferential beyond words, and I'm talking about the nasty ones, e.g., Sen. Craig, R, ID.

We can do the same with them in a broader movement.

Great post.
