THE NEXT WEEK WILL DECIDE IF DEMOCRACY WILL SURVIVE
Bush is now completely and certifiably out of control. But to remove thelast restraint on the creation of a new American dictatorship they must
install one more lock down vote on the Supreme Court, in the person of Sam
Alito.
Despite Alito's extreme right wing voting record and lifelong ideological
agenda, nobody expects him to show up at his hearing sporting a tail and
horns wearing a red suit. Instead he will lie and evade like some Wal-Mart
smiley face, just as he did when in his confirmation for the Court of
Appeals he promised to recuse himself from cases involving his own
investments. Then he fought to do precisely otherwise. He will make
absolutely any misrepresentation of his views and his agenda to try to sneak
past public accountability yet again, while his record shouts otherwise. And
only your voices speaking out now can turn the tide against this judicial
coup.

We are planning a two-stage action. First with the action page above we
will build a consensus that ANY replacement for Sandra Day O'Connor must be
no worse than a true moderate and centrist. Then after the conclusion of
the hearings we will speak out AGAIN on specific question of the final vote
in the Senate. Please submit every possible action page you can get your
hands on, and keep speaking out until we prevail, just as we did on ANWR and
the torture prohibition.
But remember that Alito was the author of the tactic of Bush trying to spin
acts of Congress with so-called "signing statements" in hopes that some
future Supreme Court (including now guess who) would give them weight over
the will of the people. And Bush did just that with the anti-torture bill,
declaring that he really didn't consider himself bound at all. Every day
from now on must be STOP Alito day, otherwise our democracy is doomed.

Even if you have submitted something else recently, please go to the page
above and take a moment to submit it. There are lots of good references in
the arguments section below the form if you would like some additional
support or ideas for your personal comments, or just cast your vote with one
click and go. We have nearly 100,000 participants in our system and we are
counting on at least 25,000 of you to speak out now. This battle must be
won, there must be a filibuster, or all else will be ultimately lost.
NEW UPDATED DESKTOP ACTION PROGRAM AVAILABLE NOW
To help us get as close as possible to 100% submission yield on this
question we have made many improvements on the Desktop Action program since
its initial release last week. With this program you can speak out directly
from your desktop with just one click! Based on your input we have set the
program to always be minimized unless you expressly click on its icon, we
have now made the interface draggable, and incorporated all of your other
suggestions. Though it worked well for most people from day one, we have
corrected all minor issues with contact setup and system reboots, and all
these small fixes have been confirmed corrected. Even if you already have
the program, please download the latest update (1.05) from the main index
page at

RUN FOR OFFICE YOURSELF OR FIND US SOMEONE WHO IS
We received many inquiries from candidates who want to win, and we are
setting everybody up with their easy-to-use forms for creating action forms
on your own campaign web site. The most important thing you can do is
launch your own STOP Alito initiative to show your constituents how much you
are out there fighting for them now, and not just talking about what you
WOULD do if elected. Build your track record and prominence identified as
someone out there fighting to protect the rights of the people. Contact us
at once and we will set you up. There is no charge for any of our services
ever.
Please take action NOW, so we can win all victories that are supposed to be
ours, and forward this message to everyone else you know.
