Lee Camp: How Much Is That Election in The Window?

A small group of millionaires and billionaires got together last week and pledged $100 million to beat Obama. Thanks to the Citizens United decision they can do that now.... [Also get the Moment of Clarity BOOK at www.LeeCamp.net]

They're scared shitless of us.

The Freedom Plaza Protests so far:

We marched to the Chamber of Commerce with banners, and they freaked out and shut the building down.

We went to protest the drones being celebrated at the Smithsonian Air & Space, and they freaked out, maced us, and shut the building down. 

We chanted and held banners at the Hart Senate Offices, and they freaked out and shut the building down.

We put up our hands as peace signs while veterans held up banners decrying the horrors of war during the Armed Services Committee meeting, and they freaked out, arrested people, falsely charged a 22 year old girl with "assault" and shut most of the building down.

We joined a pastor as he tried to close out his Wells Fargo bank account at a DC Wells Fargo location, and they freaked out and shut the building down.

We are nonviolent. All we do is tell the truth, and they're scared shitless of us. We are winning.

- The Roots, Rising Down

[Music] The Whole F**king Thing Is Coming Down

Lyrics:

Hedge funds, derivatives, tea pot dome
wall street gambling, using your home
congress isn't gonna do a single fucking thing
because their campaign contributions all come attached to strings
The Democratic Party is a failing institution
what we need now is a real revolution

The United States is a global empire
The Factory owner is a fucking vampire
sucking wealth from the poor
committing wage theft
who will work for you when we've starved to death?

CHORUS: And the whole fucking thing is coming down x4

I work full time in a factory
but that doesn't mean I can afford to eat
I've got student loans, but no degree
so I'm gonna die working at a machine
No health insurance, we're all temporary hires
so if we get sick we'll just hurry up and die

wages so low we can't afford the rent
so we have to rely on the government
but the rich man doesn't want to pay his taxes
so the social programs, they'll all get the axe
we don't complain, we don't bitch
the only thing we've got left to eat is the rich

CHORUS: and the whole fucking thing is coming down x4

October 6th Documentary

I just pledged some $$ to help Dennis Trainor make a documentary.

And I'm writing this blog entry to ask you to pledge ONE DOLLAR.

Why?

First, every dollar counts. And more than every dollar, every person counts.

Increasing the number of people who pledge will show that this documentary has popular support when Dennis approaches the bigger donors.




Dennis's goal today is to get 100 people to pledge in small dollars amounts- so please take a moment right now to pledge as little as ONE DOLLAR - and then share this message with your friends!

THIS IS JUST DAY 2 OF THE PLEDGE DRIVE for a feature length film that tells the story of arguably the most urgent and ambitious protest movement of a generation (at least in the U.S.), and I am asking you to pledge and share this with people in your network who might be inclined to help fund this project.

- More than $1,500 raised in day one.

- Pledge a buck today!

Thanks for doing this!
