Re: Join our urgent petition MOVEON.ORG

July 20, 2005

I joined this group to get information on mold, effects and remedies and was

hoping to find a supportive community that shared information. From what I

have read so far there are people on this list struggling for their lives,

battling health issues every day of their life - myself included. A call to

join a political group (moveon) seems to me to be incredibly insensitive.

It's like asking brain cancer chemo patient to join a save-the-whales rally.

I'm sorry - but I find this Moveon sponsored inappropriate and actually

offensive.

Supreme Court: Petition to Stop Corporate Lawyer

Dear MoveOn member,

In the past weeks, Republicans and Democrats have called on

President Bush to nominate a moderate for the Supreme Court-someone

who would honor the legacy of independent Justice Day

O'Connor. But last night, President Bush nominated Judge

, a far-right lawyer and corporate lobbyist, to fill her post

on the Supreme Court.

We've got to stop . He opposed clean air rules and worked to

help coal companies strip-mine mountaintops. He worked with Ken

Starr (yes, that Ken Starr), and tried to keep Congress from

defending the Voting Rights Act. He wrote that Roe v. Wade should

be " overruled, " and as a lawyer argued (and won) the case that

stopped some doctors from even discussing abortion.

Join our urgent petition to let our senators know we expect them to

oppose right now at:

This is one of the most important domestic fights of President

Bush's career. We can win-Americans overwhelmingly want a moderate

judge. But to win, we need to get the word out early that is

out of the mainstream.

After you've signed, please send this message on to your friends and

colleagues. We need to fight back against the misinformation that

the Bush administration is putting out.

has little experience as a judge-he was only appointed

in 2003. But he's got a lot of experience as a corporate lobbyist

and lawyer, consistently favoring wealthy corporations over regular

Americans.

Here's a list of some of the things that make the wrong pick

for the Supreme Court:

Wrong on environmental protection: appears to want to limit

the scope of the Endangered Species Act, and in papers he wrote

while in law school he supported far-right legal theories

about " takings " which would make it almost impossible for the

government to enforce most environmental legislation.

Wrong on civil rights: worked to keep Congress from

defending parts of the Voting Rights Act.

Wrong on human rights: As a appeals court judge, ruled that

the Geneva Convention doesn't apply to some prisoners of war.

Wrong on our right to religious freedom: argued that schools

should be able to impose religious speech on attendees.

Wrong on women's rights: wrote that " Roe v. Wade was wrongly

decided and should be overruled. " He also weighed in on behalf of

Operation Rescue, a violent anti-abortion group, in a federal case.

President Bush could have chosen many fair-minded and independent

jurists to replace Day O'Connor. Instead, he chose a

corporate partisan loved by Bush's right-wing base but out of step

with the rest of the country.

Tell your senators they need to stop now, at:

http://political.moveon.org/roberts/?id=5817-5733985-

We'll be in touch soon about next steps. For now, please help us

gather as many voices as possible to keep the Supreme Court fair.

And thanks for everything you're doing.

It was sent to me and I thought this person going against

environmental issues was important. I am not endorsing any

politicial group or asking anyone to join it. But isn't one of the

main problems we have to do with political agenda's and big

industry? I am very much aware of what this stuff is capable of

doing to lives, at least the ones that are still here and how this

affects everyone around us firsthand. The ones that are no longer

here because they passed away from mold, ones that I was personally

in touch with that no longer have a voice. I do my best, I am not

perfect. I'm sorry if I offended anyone. I guess questioning the

qualifications of someone who will not back environmental issues is

really not important.

I second that. Though there is a lot more our governing bodies could do to

assist mold victims and help stop the rapid spread of mold contamination, there

is no 1 person who is completely responsible for it. MoveOn.org is an

organization with one motivation - and helping mold victims is certainly not one

of them. Praying on the emotions of mold victims to enlist more people to join

their cause is sad.

Re: petition

Personally I think posts regarding things going on in Washington extremely

more critical than most people seem to believe and we should be more

interested and involved. Maybe if we were, we wouldn't have this problem we

are faced with now. Special interests have kept mold problem off the table

and that has to do with Washington and local governments too. The fact that

many people think these things are not important is why we have government

dominated by big business rather than the public's good.

If it affects health and environmental, I think topic is appropriate here.

No political party was endorsed. It was just one post. The activity was

signing your name.

My experience with objections in group, that one objection generates a

tremendous amount of uninteresting and argumentative posts, *like this one,

so better to tolerate an objectionable post, especially if it is one or a

few. I hope to offend noone.

I am a mold victim and I have been helping other mold victims for

the last 9 years. I DID NOT ask the people on this board to join any

organization. AGAIN, I apologize for offending anyone. I guess I was

wrong with my way of thinking in that what happens in the

environment and big industry will eventually lead to more

casualties. MSC people have a hard enough time with polluants in the

environment (most of this caused by there mold exposure)now some of

them are having a hard time with MANY of the Clean Air Laws

overturned, naturally this leads to more contaminants. I can not put

my wife in a plastic bubble anymore than she is now. Unfortunately

for her the outside air is becoming as " deadly " as the indoor

environment that got her gravely ill.

This was my ONLY motive. I have dealt with this issue (mold)

personnally, through the news, and yes even contacting politicians

(so I guess that makes me political). Perhaps someone who is just

now experiencing these hardships can give me a better indepth

scenario as to what recourse we have than to help keep what little

environmental laws we now have in place. I am open to all

suggestions. Many of us would like to know what we can do to inform

the public and our politicians more than what we have. There are

alot of people who complain, but in reality very few actually are

doing anything to stop this nightmare from continuing.

Perhaps someone would like to step into my shoes during one of the

many phone calls I receive daily from a parent whose children are

gravely ill (and yes a couple have already lost a child) crying to

me and asking for help or where to turn since they were unable to

receive help from any governmental agency. I have been doing this

nonstop now for many years, never asking for a dime (even though I

might have been down to my last one). This is a full time job 24/7

holidays included, trying to bring information out to the public and

assisting as best I can.

If anyone thinks this is ALL an agenda for me, then YES they are

correct. MY AGENDA IS STOPPING MORE PEOPLE FROM GETTING SICK FROM

MOLD AND THE ONES THAT ARE GRAVELY ILL FROM DYING FROM THIS.

And I agree with CJ.

To all,

KC has helped like unlike anyone else with his important information on Mold. If

I had never found this Web site, I do not believe I would be alive right now. I

am struggling to live and thank God for people like KC, Doug Haney and

Dr.Shoemaker and of course the others that have been affected by Mold and

answered my E-Mails. I think it is very important for ALL of us to get this

information out to the public the best way we can. If anyone finds this Web site

offensive, then maybe you should go back to reading Fiction or Romance novels.

This is NOT Fiction...it is real and people are dying and it needs to get out.

I hope that you find some help if you are sick but don't slam others who are

trying to get the message out. Who knows.....it might even end up helping you

and others like you.

God Bless you KC and keep up the Great work you are doing, without getting paid

a " dime " .

Sincerely,

Marcie
