those who will sit calmly and do nothing in order to pretend to be neutral, although they are in fact passively allowing a moving train - whether it be
capitalism or facism - to pass unimpeded. And there are those who will struggle against that movement, and who will fight it until it stops and moves the other
way."

Manley for Congress

At 9:10pm on August 6, 2008, Mark Manley said…: If I've been missing from this network it's because I've been busier than ever before! My friends and I at ImpeachOk1 have staged many protests but none have kept me as busy as running for U.S. Congress! That's right. Less than a week before the filing date I, with encouragement from my friends decided I would run for
the U.S. Congress. I would run on a very limited budget
on a platform of keeping corporate money out of politics, getting out of Iraq, universal health-care and more. With lots of footwork from my friends and the networks set up ( ImpeachOk1, T-Town Democracy for America ) we almost beat a professional group that outspent us over 25/1! I had decided that from Congress I could make more happen than on Tulsa's street corners shouting and waving signs but we didn't quite make it. It was quite an experience. The vote tally was 56% to our 44%. Many have said I should try again and if the issues to be faced are nearly as bad and our representation still stinks I may do it!

At 8:40pm on May 5, 2008, Mark Manley said…: Impeach Cheney Day was great. We had coverage from all the local media. ( One major paper, + local NBC, CBS, ABC and well FOX interviewed Judy and I but, as usual burned the footage ) We had our "Mock Impeachment Trial" and "The Tulsa Impeachment Committee" was mentioned on two sources. I'm going to design a t-shirt for the committee if not the event. As Cheney's motorcade pulled in we shouted "Impeach Cheney First", interspersed with calls of "Arrest Him". Lots of fun!

At 9:04pm on April 8, 2008, Mark Manley said…: Whoever is elected President this year, there won't be any real change in a progressive direction without a mass social
movement to bring it about--either by holding the president accountable or by holding his or her feet to the fire. And a mass social movement doesn't begin at
the top. It begins right now, with
you.

Why did you join the Stop Fascism Action Network?: I'm always looking for more ways to act against the fascists.

On a scale of 1-10 with 1 = to No Fascism and 10 = to Total Fascism how would you rate your country?: 8

Tell us about yourself: I have been dedicated to getting Bush and Cheney impeached since I organized a demonstration against Cheney's appearance here in Tulsa on April 27 2007. That was one day ahead of the big April 28 day. Actually I was against them both since 2003 when I saw they actually intended to invade Iraq.

Would you like to Volunteer and help Stop Fascism? If yes, how would you like to help?: I already organize protests and run a web site and forum. I'm looking for more to do. Tell me how I can help!
