Had Enough?

Enough of seeing the Constitution trashed? Enough of the corruption? Enough of the war? Enough of the gutless response of our elected Democratic representatives?

I don't think our reps read our e-mail or listen to our phone calls. Hell, they didn't even listen to the 2006 election in which we told them to stop the war. Scooter Libby is the last straw and I'm not going to take it anymore. I've had enough.

Cenk Uygur and I were talking this morning about what to do. We've decided it's time to tell America we've had enough. We'll be standing outside the Federal Building in West L.A. at the corner of Veteran and Wilshire for one hour this Sunday. If you'd like to join us, just wear a t-shirt or bring a sign that says you've had enough.

If you're not in L.A., just go to whatever the most common protest site is in your home city with a shirt or sign that says you've had enough from noon to one p.m. this Sunday. You don't have to march, chant, play drums, pass out pamphlets or build puppets (not that we're against those things). All you have to do is stand there with one word: enough.

Cenk and I don't care if we're the only two people there. We don't care because the next Sunday, each of us has pledged to bring two more people with us, and we'll ask them to make the same pledge. And we'll keep standing out there every single Sunday, doubling our numbers, from now until we've got so many people with us that we cannot be ignored.

So how about it? Have you had enough? Will you stand with us?

Wes Jr. has asked that we not turn his diary at Dkos into a "candidate thread".

Seriously, as someone who feels guilty for not having camped out at the Lincoln Memorial until Bush resigns, I can't overstate how much I'm behind this sentiment, especially the "twist" of making it grow exponentially each week. But wouldn't we have so much more potential if it was, say, ENOUGH.com ? And then at that site we would of course have a very handy guide laying out the black and white facts of President Magoo's intransigent corruption and incompetence. (and of course, if I had my druthers, it would have a link to "The Switch" (Russell Cole of populistamerica.com loved it and is helping me get it out there.))

Excellent idea, unfortunately it's already taken by one of those late night market "I used to be poor, but now in only fifteen minutes a day at home I make a bijillion dollars an hour, and you can too!" blowhards, and "enough.org" is the website for an internet safety advocacy group, but at least "enough.net" appears to be potentially open.

I've certainly had ENOUGH!

Does anyone on here here have the know-how and the initiative to make it happen?

Used alone, the word has a certain shout implied.

This can work if nothing else is included. Cripes, I can even stand along road by my house on Sunday and do my part.

Enoughers unite!

I like it too

I would like to somehow fabricate a T that says a simple:

enough

on the front, and:

"We concede nothing!"

People want leadership......and in the absence of leadership, they will listen to anyone who walks up to the microphone.
