The free states and peoples of this nation are not without power.

Democratic state attorneys general have done a decent job of banding together in forceful opposition. They need to up their game.

And it is time for our electeds to figure out how to do the same. Democratic governors must band together in joint opposition.

Individual condemnations are NOT sufficient. We need unprecedented unity -- starting with something as simple as a joint statement condemning this criminal war signed by EVERY member of the U.S. House and Senate who has a conscience.

And that is a place to focus our citizen lobbying efforts.

If they can't get their act together to do that, how the hell do they expect us to believe they'll be able to unify in far more difficult action when they have control?

Call to action: Each and every person with a conscience has work to do in the weeks ahead.
