There may be something soon. A local radio show host is getting together a grassroots campaign to contact congressional leaders, and making it easy by starting a web site that will help people through the process. He's trying to get the corporation that owns his station to run public service announcements over the numerous stations they own around the nation, and the same for the corporations that own the local TV stations. I'm not sure if I agree with the entire premise, but the despair and hopelessness are palpable down here.
I started a thread on Politics, but this particular editorial seemed more personal than political.
While I didn't lose everything like so many did, the despair down here is like the air you breathe. And this editorial echoed my own despair and hopelessness in tone if not in particulars. So I put it here rather than on Politics.
