Happy John Kerry Thursday!
My semester is getting busy so my posts will probably become a bit less frequent for a while. Don't think that means I'll let up on John Kerry Thursdays. One extra reason to give today:
"We are in the midst of an unprecedented fundraising drive -- $10 Million in 10 Days. We're almost there. We need $450,000 by 5 p.m. to reach our goal and are counting on each of you to make a commitment to this campaign. You can bet the special interests who support George Bush are doing everything they can to help him. We have to not only match, but exceed, their effort."
Think about eating PB&J at home tonight and send the money you save to a good cause.
On a related note, I attended my first MeetUp for the Democratic Party at Mother Eagan's pub here in Austin last night. Seth and I felt a little awkward at first but once I ran into a group of friends I had a good time. A few folks from the DNC and Texas House Rep Elliot Naishtat spoke about getting involved and re-energizing the party. Overall it was short, sweet, and informative.
