Remember Ellie Light? "She" wrote letters to the editors of many US newspapers. I don't think that "Ellie" got a call from the President, asking for the letters to be written. (Yes, Ellie Light is a real person, named Winston Steward. He's 51 years old, and lives in California. He started the letters from "Ellie" with one to the Cleveland Plain Dealer.)
Lives in California, writes to Cleveland and other areas in the US... Hmmm.. I bet he'd never read the Plain Dealer or any other newspaper to which he wrote the letters. Wow. What a great idea! Maybe we could take it to another level. I mean, more people are getting their "news" online than ever before. And, people are listening to talk radio more, too. We could put a webpage up with talking points (No, let's not call them "talking points". That's got a bad connotation. Let's call them "discussion points".) Anyway we can put up one talk show for people to call, whether or not they're listening, and if the line is busy, we can put up a link to click that would change the talk show/number to call. That way we could just keep calling those progressive talk shows and flood them with our calls. Yeah, I know we could make a difference by starting off with Air America. Progressive talk radio has so many listeners it's not even funny.
What? They went off the air in January because they couldn't pay their bills? Oh..
Well there's gotta be a way to get our point across... There has to be a way to make it plain that this health care bill is going to raise our taxes. That health care is going to keep being offered to people who are in the US illegally. That health care decisions are going to be taken out of the people's hands and put into the government's..
WHAT? Somebody already took my idea?
Who in the world would want to do that?
Well, would you look at that.
For some reason, I'm not surprised.
