Four More Years

Thanks to our readers, and thanks to those who left supportive comments (they were a nice antidote to angry assertions that conducting our civic duty makes us godless communist feminazis).

The future of this site is unclear. We've talked about adding another ten to the URL, turning our attention to Congress, and calling it 535 Reasons to Keep an Eye on Democracy, but we are, understandably, ready for a break from daily updates. If you'd like to be notified when we start posting again, send an e-mail to notify@525reasons.com. In the meantime, Jane writes on less serious, (mostly) non-political matters here, where Rhonda is a guest author.

Like us, many of you who were hoping for a different outcome may be tempted to retreat into apathy. We're fighting this instinct, and hope you will, too. We need to stay engaged, to continue to make clear what we require of George Bush if he sincerely desires to earn the support he has asked of us.

We may not be conducting a countdown on a website, but we will remain active citizens. And we will be watching.

- Rhonda and Jane

Thank you both so much. I've been reading since the beginning and you have done an outstanding job. Take that hard-earned break and let us know how we can support Washington's annexation to Canada.

Thank you Rhonda & Jane for doing this! This wonderful site was my quick-reference source when I needed a link or two to send to "conservative" friends and co-workers who seemed to be educated only by FoxNews and Rush . . .

I already miss your updates and am looking forward to the new site once you've had your well-deserved rests!
