A plea
My site statistics say there are over 100 unique visits to this site every day. I've long since given up trying to figure out if that's 100 individuals or 50 people who visit once from work and once from home or one guy in a college computer lab running around in visiting the site on 100 machines.
The thing is, if I can appeal to any one of you - be it one, 50 or 100 - to make a decision that you're going to give some money to help remove Bush from office this November then I need to do that.
Bush Campaign Ad Hits Kerry with His Own Words
We may wish it were otherwise, but this is going to be one ugly campaign season. Bush already is hitting the airwaves and trying to throw anything at Kerry that he thinks will stick and the press has shown no signs that it won't play this as a "he said/he said" matchup.
We have to be able to respond.
You can give to Kerry directly, or you can give to the DNC ePatriots or MoveOn.org.
I'm not Atrios. I can't raise $75,000 for Kerry in a day. But if I can get someone to contribute $20, I'd be happy.

When I'm able to do so again, I'll do it through this site. :-)
BTW: My local mall just opened and Apple store. I went in for the first time and all I can say is ooooooohhhhhhh!!

Posted by: Ryan Bayne at March 19, 2004 07:58 AMI totally don't care where people give - I just mean that if there's one person who reads this site and doesn't read the others, I want to do whatever I can to get them to give.
