And just to get the month of February off to a GREAT start, I just sent to the national ONE office today 200 more sign-ups for ONE on our petitions to add to the current total on our home page. How about re-committing ourselves to signing up to ONE at least THREE MILLION Americans before the Presidential elections in November? United AS ONE, it can be done. ~ Take very good care of each other, dear friends at ONE. Blessings abound - just look around! ALWAYS FOREVER, ONE - debbie :) PS: Look out for that Priority Mail envelope, everyONE in the DC office! Thanks Michael for the vote of confidence - it’s much appreciated.

It's never a bad idea to visit that website. It is full of the sort of info that ONE supporters need to know to be able to effectively speak up on behalf of the world's poorest people. Now - ON TO ORGANIZING THE GRASSROOTS & SIGNING MORE FOLKS UP TO ONE! That is what we need to do to be able to ensure that the good parts of this proposed budget gets passed. Have a beautiful day, dear friends, at ONE. Please don't let it get away.~ A:WAYS FOREVER, ONE - debbie :) Thanks Virginia. It’s never a bad idea to visit that website.

It makes for very interesting reading. BTW, DATA has an EXCELLENT analysis of this proposed budget on its website (www.data.org). While their analysis may not read like a Stephen King novel, it is concise and incisive as all of DATA'a analyses are. Now that it's becoming more apparent who will be the choices for the Presidential election, let's get back to the nuts and bolts of our movement - ORGANIZING THE GRASSROOTS and SIGNING MORE PEOPLE UP FOR ONE ! Take very good care of each other, dear friends at ONE. Blessings - not just for those who kneel. ALWAYS ONE in the Spirit, debbie :) Thanks Virginia for posting this info about the President’s proposed budget for FY2009. It makes for very interesting reading.
