Here is a poster for you to send to any writer or politician who has taken a position for or against corporate influence in public affairs. Drag the poster to your favorite document or mail program and print or send as many copies as you would like. All I ask is that you include the link at the bottom.

Mine were inspired by the fact that in Minnesota, Wisconsin, and many other states the number of eligible voters who did not vote was greater than the number of voters who voted for the "winners".

Coffee Party USA, political discourse we can believe in
I was pleased to read in today's Star Tribune that Annabel Park of Silver Spring MD has started the Coffee Party as an antidote to the Tea Party and to the extreme polarization of the two so-called major parties. The actual article was from the Washington Post and can be found at "Coffee Party activists say their civic brew's a tastier choice than Tea Party's".
The Coffee Party hasn't gained the notoriety and participation of the Tea Party yet. Maybe it never will, because too many people would rather point fingers than actually rationally discuss issues. But let's still have hope, maybe this is the change we've been waiting for.
If you do a google search for coffee party park you will get over 20 million hits. Maybe thing are perking along better than the Star Tribune intimated.
Besides Ms. Park's Facebook page mentioned in the article, the Google search yielded coffeepartyusa.com.
As a Party of One, I am mixed on how much support to give to the Coffee Party. But I will do my best to keep up with its activities and to wish it well in returning us to the country the Founders envisioned.
To paraphrase Walt Kelly's Pogo, we have met the government and it is us!
