As a species, the right wing has separated itself off from humanity, and declared itself above law, above rational support for the principles that made this nation safe from authoritarian rule, and most especially above decent treatment of all people. Under that species’ dominion, the law of the jungle is supreme, and charity itself becomes a crime.

‘Fight The Crazy!’ A LOT of People Doing A Little Can Make A BIG Difference!

Today is primary day down in Arkansas. Today is the day Arkansas voters choose between Bill Halter and Blanche Lincoln.

Over the last few months, Bill Halter has been traveling the state, talking to voters and winning them over. His poll numbers have shot up as he’s campaigned – clearly, his message is working.

But it will all be for nothing if those voters don’t get to the polls today and vote.

We’re running phonebanks today to make sure Halter supporters get to the polls and make their voice heard. We’re calling friendly folks to remind them to vote, so the calls should be easy and fun. You can phonebank from home – all it takes is a computer, a phone line, and an hour to volunteer for the campaign. We have shifts today from 3 pm – 5 pm CST (4 pm – 6 pm EST) and 5 pm – 7:30 pm CST (6 pm – 8:30 pm EST).

Can you help us out?
