Is everyone here taking Part at the Activism section of this Forum ???
This campaign is targeting your Governor, members of your State Senate, members of your State House, the President of the United States, members of the US Senate and members of the US House of Representatives.
Betty, is there a way to get that link directly here in Medical?????
This is such an important issue right now, that because medical has so much traffic, I think that thread should be here as well.

when this screen comes up, use your page down to get to OUR LYME posts since ERIC/we lyme folks were FIRST to post; so OLDEST IS ON BOTTOM.
above link and eric's here are 2 DIFFERENT ones! but this is the one where we get to give our opinions and vote. this is site where our enemies are DEDUCTING 10 POINTS for our votes!!
to the person who posted and broke up your post, thank you; sorry the site didn't let you leave it as typed as mine was.
i thought for sure with mine being longer it would run it all together, BUT NOPE! big surprise.
but we've got to vote UP on our lyme posts, and please add a few comments on lyme posts that you personally have experienced or feel very strongly about ok!
god bless you all using our electorial votes here for our new president-elect obama!

PLEASE KEEP THIS POST UP ON TOP THIS WEEKEND ... **********************************************
this is our CHANCE to show OBAMA'S transition team there is a LARGE GROUP OF FOLKS WHO WANT LYME/CO-INFECTIONS ADDRESSED IN TOP 10 TOPICS THEY TACKLE.
DO YOUR BIT! contact all on your lyme group lists, family, friends, co-workers, church, etc! ask them to participate please!
registering is easy/quick! BIG THANKS!
ps ... i was NOT yelling at you all; it's OPPORTUNITY KNOCKING, and i'm excited as can be to have a VOICE in my lyme and treatments.

There's an opportunity to make your voice heard to the Obama Administration at Change.gov.
Given the Lyme community's prowess in using the Internet to foster change, we should be able to FLOOD the site with stories, suggestions, and appeals for help.
I suggest EVERYONE go to the site, register, click on the CITIZEN'S BRIEFING BOOK, search "LYME' and share your idea!
As of tonight, there are reasonable suggestions that Lyme activists have posted that are being voted down! This should not be happening. ******************************************
When I looked for the entry someone had placed for the federal Lyme legislation, it appeared it had been removed.
WE NEED EVERYONE'S HELP TO GO TO THE SITE, VOTE ON LYME-RELATED SUGGESTIONS, AND LEAVE YOUR COMMENTS AND SUGGESTIONS. THIS IS AN OPPORTUNITY THAT SHOULD NOT BE WASTED.
IT APPEARS THAT THOSE IN LEADERSHIP ROLES IN THE LYME COMMUNITY EITHER DIDN'T KNOW ABOUT, OR HAVE CHOSEN NOT TO INFORM THE LYME COMMUNITY OF THIS OPPORTUNITY TO MAKE **INDIVIDUAL** VOICES HEARD.
THIS IS AN ERROR OF JUDGEMENT IN MY OPINION. I DO NOT KNOW WHY WE HAVE NOT BEEN INFORMED THROUGH THE USUAL CHANNELS.
GO NOW! WE NEED EVERYONE'S HELP.

bettyg, iowa activist
VOTE UPWARD! i wrote obama's folks that NO issue should folks like our enemies, idsa, be allowed to REMOVE POINTS BY DOWNGRADING 10 points per vote!! *****************

When you do this, please don't just search for "Lyme"!
Other searches have pulled up more posts - "vector" brings up the 2 posts about the Lyme Disease Bills.
Vote 'em up!

When i see the TOP ideas with the most votes I am scared. They are about legalizing Marajuana and then next are things like builing a light rail system and next about UFO disclosure and Legalizing Online gambling and stuff like that.
Well, what we need to do then is build some alliances...
Pot for Lyme pain.
Protection for the light rail builders so they don't bump against vegetation and get Lymed.
No incoming ticks allowed on UFOs (on second thought, I'd lobby for the UFOs to take ticks with them when they leave).
