Crist for Congress
The Peace Candidate
Dear Friends of Peace and Universal Not-for-profit Health Care:
As you may know, the two main issues that I talk about are ending the cruel occupation of Iraq and universal single-payer, not-for-profit health care. As I’ve been talking with and listening to voters for over two months now, [...]
It would be nice if Dennis Kucinich would confirm or deny this story from OpEd News and Portland Indymedia. If there is any truth to these allegations, it would explain quite clearly why our representatives in Congress are so unwilling to stand up for us, “the people”.
There is a report circulating the web that [...]
to all of those who voted for that Christmorgasmic resolution in Congress - on the penultimate night of Chanukkah! Maybe they’ll celebrate the wonders of that holiday on the 12th Day of Christmas.

Baird’s war turn blew “any chance” of Iraq “compromise.”
In August, Rep. Brian Baird (D-WA) returned from a two-day trip to the war-torn country, proclaiming that “real progress” was being made and that the escalation should be extended “at least into early next year.” Baird touted his new position on the war with a conservative media [...]
As many of you know, Brian Baird usually is a guest on KPOJ AM620 on Tuesday mornings. This last Tuesday he spoke about the legislation to provide immunity to the telecoms for turning over phone records since BEFORE 911 to the NSA. Representative Baird’s interview begins at 15:40 in this segment with a discussion [...]
With Bush’s approval rating at 24%, it is a miracle of modern politics that the Democrats in Congress are still aiding and abetting his policies and illegal activities. What can you do about this? As Rob Call points out below, you can start by not giving the DCCC or any of the the [...]

Jeff Mize for The Columbian reports:
The furor over Congressman Brian Baird’s change of position on Iraq showed no sign of abating as almost 300 of his constituents turned out Thursday to hear two anti-war speakers challenge Baird’s conclusion.
“Your congressional district, like it or not, is in the national spotlight,” said Tom Andrews, a former Democratic [...]
