Who's up for a Roadtrip?

Seriously. We're rolling to DC on thursday. As you may have heard, Rep Sensenbrenner has pulled the plug on Rep Conyers' hearing in to the Downing Street Memo in hopes that he could keep a lid on this thing. He fucked up.

He fucked up because this time we're fighting back. This time we need hit back HARD!

It appears that the DNC is offering to host the hearing. That's a good start, but I think we can either do better or augment the hearing in a loud and press grabbing way. Personally, I would have preferred something more splashy, like the Capitol steps, but it IS hotter than hell here on the east coast right now. Also, I would have preferred that the response appear more angry citizen-like than something from the DNC which makes it that much easier to pass off as "partisan". Whatever.

We need to make the fat bastard and the GOP pay through the fucking nose for this. We need to make sure that the goal of silencing this hearing blows up in their face. We need to make noise, BIG NOISE.

So who's in? Let's take this dog and pony show on the road and make some noise in DC.

We need to make sure that this stunt comes back and takes a huge hunk out of their ass.

Drop me some mail if you're down.
