Right now is no time to come up short.

It's time to fight like hell for a democracy where minority rule cannot impose an extreme and cruel agenda, where the Big Lie is called a Big Lie, where facts matter, and where accountability at the polls and in the press has a fighting chance. We have our work cut out for us, and we urgently need to raise about 400,000 by Thursday, June 30, to finish our fiscal year on track and give it everything we possibly can. Please help us get there with a donation if you can right now.

Right now is no time to come up short. It's time to fight like hell for a democracy where minority rule cannot impose an extreme and cruel agenda, where facts matter, and where accountability at the polls and in the press has a fighting chance. We have our work cut out for us, and we still need to raise upwards of 400,000 by June 30 to give it everything we can. Please help:

Jamison Foser has a question:

The real answer, of course, is: “Because they’d tell us that spending cuts will hurt the economy and be bad for jobs. And that’s not something we have any interest in hearing.”

But perhaps you can think of something better. What excuse should Republicans use? It’s a waste of precious CBO resources? The CBO is hiding the truth from us by refusing to use time-tested supply-side models? Doug Elmendorf once went to dinner with somebody who was friends with someone else who invested in Solyndra? There’s gotta be something.
