VA, Virginia Beach: Hampton Roads Rally for Clean Energy

Hampton Roads Rally for Clean Energy

For years, John McCain and the Republicans have funneled billions of our tax dollars to oil companies via tax breaks and subsidies—often at the expense of clean energy projects and green job development. John McCain's new tax plan includes almost $4 billion in tax cuts for Big Oil. This commitment t...(more)o oil company profits over clean energy progress has hurt us at the pump, and it's hurting our local economies.

Host: Nancy McPherson
Status: Public, open for RSVP, 7 Guests (Max 25)

MN, Eden Prairie: Protest Bush & Sen. Norm Coleman

Bryant Lake Regional Park Protest Picnic

In the late afternoon of this coming Tuesday, August 21, George W Bush will be the honored guest at a fundraising reception for Senator Norm Coleman at the home of William and Tani Austin at 6641 Beach Road, on the west shore of Bryant Lake, in Eden Prairie, MN.

Have you received your invitation? Perhaps not and perhaps just as well. It costs $1,000 per person to get in the door. If you want a photo-op with W, it will cost you $10,000 per couple at the co-host level, or you can go for the host level at $14,000 per couple. This party is not being organized for ordinary citizens such as you and me. The press is not invited, either. As W once said to a similarly ritzy dinner gathering, "This is an impressive crowd - the haves and the have-mores. Some people call you the elites; I call you my base."

MI, Dearborn: GONZO MUST GO Rally

Controversial Attorney General Alberto Gonzales will be appearing Tues. May 8, in Dearborn, Michigan, to discuss "Enhancing & Securing Civil Liberties of all Americans." Join fellow citizens in a wide coalition of groups and individuals protesting Gonzales and his trampling of Civil Liberties in America.

Citizens are stepping up as an answer to Gonzales horrible human rights record, and immoral interpretation of the Constitution.

  • Under his leadership the Justice Department and the FBI have been accused of improperly and illegally using the USA PATRIOT Act to uncover personal information about U.S. citizens.
  • His role in the dismissal of eight U.S. attorneys has led members of Congress to investigate his actions.
  • He is the architect for the US dismissing parts of the Geneva Conventions to allow torture and is directly involved in the decision to allow foreign combatants in U.S. custody to be deported to nations that allow torture.
