READIN

Jeremy's journal

The peculiar evil of silencing the expression of an opinion is, that it is robbing the human race; posterity as well as the existing generation; those who dissent from the opinion, still more than those who hold it. If the opinion is right, they are deprived of the opportunity of exchanging error for truth: if wrong, they lose, what is almost as great a benefit, the clearer perception and livelier impression of truth, produced by its collision with error.

John Stuart Mill

🦋 How I am spending pre-election weekend

I haven't written an endorsement (or much of anything lately), since I don't think (m)any people read my site who are not well acquainted with my politics. But here is something close to an endorsement that I wrote in the comments over at Lawyers, Guns and Money. And by the way: here is an endorsement I endorse, by the RudePundit, to which I was alerted by Michael Bérubé.

One and a half more hours of this nail-chewing today -- then I am getting on a bus up to Woodstock, where I will meet Ellen, Sylvia, and Gary, Suzie and Milo, to spend the night at their place and try to relax and forget my worries. Come back home tomorrow recharged and do a lot of phone calling for MoveOn tomorrow and Sunday. (If you're interested in doing some of that yourself, go here and create an account for yourself). More nail-chewing on Monday; then Tuesday I am working for the Kerry campaign, calling people, canvassing, and in the evening hosting a Calls for Kerry phone-banking party. (To find a party near you, enter your ZIP code here.) Jeez I hope this does some good...

If you have any money to give please donate to Election Protection, which is organizing lawyers to watch polls in contested states and discourage those who would harass voters. It is a vital struggle.
