In These Times is at a crossroads and we urgently need your support. Will you help us raise $50,000 by the end of the week?
Continuing my look at voter groups I rarely share air with…
Security Moms
Well, I'll be jiggered…this seems to be a myth. Who woulda thunk that pollsters would make up a category to suit the needs of their clients?
NASCAR dads:
Good Christ, I didn't realize that Bush/Cheney had officially embarked on a NASCAR tour. No wonder: as NASCAR race cars are to sponsors' stickers, Bush/Cheney are to corporate sponsorships.
Crraaaazy Rightwingers:
Apparently, Allen Keyes was right--Jesus would not vote for Barack Obama. Too bad Illinois' voters are Godless.
In These Times is only able to publish the fierce, deeply-reported articles we do because of readers like you who contribute a few dollars each month to keep us independent.
If you donate just $5/month or more right now, you'll get a free annual subscription and your support will be felt throughout the newsroom.
Will you support us now? Our goal is to raise $50,000 by the end of the week.
