Some Political Posts
Just catching up on some political notes.
I came up with what I thought was a pretty good idea, so I posted it in a few places:
The Democrats community here, where I got quite a bit of helpful feedback.
The official Democrats blog where I got a few hopeful responses.
And I did a diary entry on the Daily Kos, where it met resounding silence. I seem to be condemned to being eternally ignored on Kos, so I got a little annoyed and posted the following:
The sole response I got on the comment was a rating of "2", i.e. "crappy", from some jackass. I'm strongly tempted to punt Kos altogether and look for a new progressive forum...

Just wondering. I've been doing occasional diary entries for a while now, working up what I and a few other people think are damn good ideas, and for all the response I got today I might as well have written it in Urdu.
I contacted the company that manufactures humvee armor for the US military and have an inquiry in to see if private citizens can buy that armor and send it to the troops. Seemed like something the Democratic Party could get behind; it does some good and really points up the terrible job Bush has been doing on his supposedly #1 strength, supporting the troops and fighting terrorism.

Maybe the idea sucks, although I can't see why. If it does, someone please let me know, and I'll stop wasting my time with all this.
