Gah. I just got a recorded phone call, from some actor I didn't recognize (though who is probably well known, I'm just dense that way) paid for by NARAL going on about how Bush will dismantle a women's right to choose.
NARAL should be aware that they are preaching to the choir. (Well, admittedly, the thrust of the message might be "get off your ass and vote"... but then, I've gotten off my ass and tabled for them, which is rather rarer... nad another story, actually.)
I really hate taped phone messages.
I don't like fear mongering. Even when I agree with most of the points being made. ("Almost certainly" strikes me as a bit much for anything with regard to the Supreme Court. "Almost certainly should the opportunity present itself, which is far from unlikely" is probably more like it, though I'll admit it doesn't have the rhetorical kick.)
There has got to be a better way...
