There are two sides to every story, and the above "Action Alert" is clearly intended to appeal to one side of the issue at hand. It may seem obvious, but I think it's important to point out that not everyone shares the view of the original poster nor the person who cut and pasted it here. Democracy is served when everyone's position is represented clearly and distinctly, and the decisions are made fairly and openly, considering all perspectives. Compromise is only a good thing if it's not always the same people forced to give up something.
