Are you on Glenn Beck's enemies list? Wanna be? from CREDO 20NOV10

HERE'S another chance to irritate glenn beck......click the link to participate.
 

Stand up to Glenn Beck For every signature we will donate 25 cents to great organizations that Glenn Beck hates. Clicking here will add your name to this petition: I stand for progressive values, and I'm proud to be on the blackboard. By signing this petition I'm helping to generate thousands of dollars for progressive nonprofits under attack by Glenn Beck. Dear Craig, It was bound to happen eventually. On Monday night, CREDO Action was targeted by Glenn Beck as a result of our campaign to get Discovery Communications to cancel Sarah Palin's "nature" show. Beck not only came after CREDO Action — which is 1.5 million members strong — but he also put a picture of our CEO Michael Kieschnick on the blackboard, along with five progressive groups that CREDO has been proud to support with our donations. We will not be intimidated by Glenn Beck. If he attacks us, we'll wear it as a badge of pride. And if he doesn't like that CREDO gives money to certain groups, we are going to give them even more. Tell Glenn Beck that you stand for progressive values, and you're proud to be on his blackboard. Click here to automatically sign the petition. For every person who signs, we will donate a quarter to the five groups Beck targeted along with CREDO. If 350,000 people sign our message to Beck — the same number who signed our petition about Sarah Palin's show that put us on Beck's blackboard — that will be more than $87,000 to fund some excellent progressive work. Those organizations include The Center for Constitutional Rights, the Ella Baker Center for Human Rights, Media Matters, Color of Change, and the Ruckus Society. We are already proud to support them. If Beck wants to try to intimidate them, too, we want to help them grow. Tell Glenn Beck that you will not be intimidated and that you're proud to be on the blackboard. Click here to automatically sign the petition, and please tell your friends to join us. Thanks for joining CREDO in standing up to Glenn Beck. We'll see you at the blackboard. Matt Lockshin, CREDO Action P.S. — What did Beck actually say about you? When he was defending Sarah Palin he challenged the authenticity of our grassroots action which was joined by over 350,000 activists. Here's just one quote from what Beck said to insult your activism: "There's another grassroots boycott! Yes, this time of conservative Sarah Palin's Alaska. This is a fantastic reality show which looks great ... Well, Discovery is being targeted by environmentalists. Now, it's a grassroots boycott, it must be that regular Americans are outraged at Sarah Palin. Man! Well, the group organizing the boycott is CREDO Mobile, and CREDO Action, which is a part of the larger organization... These groups focus on 'progressive' philanthropy and activism! And they're also a mobile phone provider, which is great, so your phone calls go to help these ... hmmm... It's the same group of people. So very 'grassroots' — there's your grassroots boycott of Sarah Palin's Alaska on Discovery! So organic, so pure."
