Change You Can Feel Good About

I think its safe to say that after last night's election, Democrats are not in a happy place right now. So while we're divided on how to change the world for the better and who may be best to lead that change, here's something we can all get behind.

Seems the Bush Administration is taking advantage of election hype (pay no attention to that man behind the curtain!) and is quietly trying to push through some budget cuts in his proposed 2009 federal budget that severely shortchange vital services for families like child care, Head Start and health care. And yet, he's seeking to make tax cuts for the wealthy permanent.

I could go off on a rant here, but why bother expending precious brain cells when other, more informed and eloquent people have already expended theirs? (Balance people, it's all about balance. Balance and plagiarism.)

So go read the details here and here. And when you're done, take action here. Momsrising.org makes it SUPER easy to advocate against these ridiculous budget cuts. One click of a button and your voice has been heard!

If we can't come to consensus on a candidate, maybe we can work together to support families who need it most.
