if we could start planting some yard signs -
"FRIENDS DON'T LET FRIENDS VOTE REPUBLICANS"
in the yards already sporting obama signs on busy, heavily trafficked streets...
i've been talking to americans on the ground in NH and SC and NC and VA and OH -
and i see a crying need for us to reach out to a lot of our fellow americans, esp the salvageable repubs...
if we can demonstrate a warm affection, a sense of humor... that'd go a long way to defusing the eruption and blowback/payback i see coming on november 5th... and that i have experienced a little with my obama bumperstickers and buttons...
google Friends Don't Let Friends Vote Republican" - there's a yard sign for $20, bumperstickers...
i joke with repubs that we're gonna have to tie them up to a chair on election day and let the air out of their tires -we gotta do what we gotta do - and it'll be fine, they'll see... it usually brings a sweet smile [NEVER A VOTE!] and that's a start...
if we could be gracious winners... and start the hard work of truth and reconciliation now...
barack and michelle have done their part - they coulda torn their opponents and critics a new asshole 1000 times and instead they have kept their peace...
we need to try hard to bring our repub americans around... we want to be inclusive and part of the One Nation under God that barack has called us to?
$20... if you go up to the door of anyone who has planted a yardsign - and ask them if they'd be willing to add this,another one... if they can spot the $20 cost or not...
like johnny appleseed - planting a warm communalism???
fired UP!
