If you didn’t get a chance to listen to Murphy and Friends last night on NQR, you can listen HERE now. No one should miss the interview with the inspiring and wonderful Saharra Bledsoe.
UPDATE AUGUST 17th at 10:19am: Check us out in the Wall Street Journal and the New York Times. WSJ article just released this morning.
Welcome New Members! Please visit our Main Page for more info about Puma PAC.
It is still PUMA PAC ACTION WEEKEND! Visit our ACTION Center; download 50 or 100 flyers or cards and Paint the Town Puma today! We have Spanish language flyers, LGBT flyers, brochures for senior citizens, business cards, post cards, and much more. I was on the phone yesterday with Jessi from NYC (what a great Puma she is!) talking about Denver details while she was handing out flyers in Manhattan. Her super idea is to place 10 or more flyers in the front of those free circular and newspaper boxes that one finds all over the place in big cities. While we were talking she kept getting interrupted by Manhattanites who were picking up the flyers and wanting to talk to her about Puma PAC. What a great idea Jessi!
Be wonderful to each other. Today is a new day!

THANK YOU PUMAs!
We are the ones no one was expecting.
August 7th, 2008 — Action, Celebrate!, DNC, Denver, Join us!, Lion's Share, Murphy&Friends, Puma PAC C.A.N., ROAR!
It’s Conference time, Folks. By Monday we will have a detailed and specific plan of action for Denver. Between now and then, posting will necessarily be light. I will post some updates and tidbits, but most events will be fairly private. No media is allowed. We will be broadcasting “Meet Me in Denver with Murphy and Friends” on Saturday night, 9-11pm eastern, live from the Conference. DO call in!
Keep PROWLING and posting flyers. Keep encouraging friends and family to join our Movement.
Puma PAC is joining with The Confluence and Just Say No Deal to host a live-blogging and media headquarters in Denver. Riverdaughter will be there. JSND will be there. Peacocks and Lilies will be there. Alegre, and several of the Puma/JSND bloggers from No Quarter will be there. We’ll be hosting media events, delegate receptions, and Protest coordination from our Puma Headquarters.
Tonight, Riverdaughter and JSND have generously offered to join us in raising funds for Puma Headquarters. Go have a cocktail with all the lovely folks at the Confluence. Then come back here and keep the Open Threads blazing and active.
I am ALWAYS here — even when I’m sleeping! I can’t keep track of every single comment and idea and suggestion (I truly wish I could) BUT, I am committed 20 hours a day to Puma PAC and our Movement to resist the takeover in the Democratic Party by those who think they can ignore the Voice of the Voters.
Be wonderful to each other.
Donate for Denver HERE, and THANK you for all the INCREDIBLE work and UNITY!

July 20th, 2008 — Action, DNC, H.O.U.N.D., Join us!, Murphy&Friends, Puma PAC, ROAR!, Why Don't You Take a Long Walk Off a Short Pier?
Phewf. What a week! 50,000 or more letters sent to public officials. Hundreds, maybe thousands, of phone calls to the RBC and others. Letters to the Editor published across the land. The debut of our radio show broke records for numbers listening. Filming began on the Puma PAC documentary. Local actions organized around the land by mamapuma and her tireless team of regional moderators. Trish and the Crackest Team of Puma PAC Investigators developing THE most comprehensive database of contact information imaginable. MP helping dozens of new members start blogging and keeping our forums civilized and focused at ALL hours (well maybe not ALL hours!). A lonely vigil on the steps of the Lincoln Memorial. A shameful letter from DNC officials. Some fair and balanced reporting from Tom Abrahams, and unabated hate and harrasment flowing from the Obama Movement.
On a personal note, I met my hero Riverdaughter and was more impressed than ever. I was sad to see our friend and Action Center originator PA4Hill move on. She’ll be missed. I was also sad to learn that MP ran into some personal static as a result of politics and the politics of posting.
We’ve accomplished so much everyone, and you know what I say — Tomorrow is another day!
I don’t know about you Folks, but I’m ready to KEEP IT UP. . .
