A few weeks ago, the White House announced plans for its “We The People ” project, which would allow ordinary Americans to use an online portal at the White House’s website to submit a petition, gather support for it and, if it managed to clear a participation threshold of 5,000 signatures within 30 days of submission, it would get the attention of “policy experts” who would “issue an official response.”
Well, this web portal went live today, and according to the latest results as of this hour the petition ‘Call an Investigation into Allegations of Prosecutorial & Judicial Misconduct in the Case of Sholom Rubashkin’, is getting close to that threshold, with 4,893 signatures.

The petition site is experiencing “glitches”. Code is broken (use “view source” to see it). Oh! What a coincidence.

“issue an official response.”
just wait it will read something like.
“we value your input, and we will review this matter.”
Lets think, if all the letters Rabbi Lerner has organized on behalf of Jonathan pollard have not gotten an “official response”, will 5000 clicks on a web page.
But hey keep davening and then do some hishtadlus to hide the nes of our Father the “Matir Asurim”
B’simcha go check, we are number 2 after “Legalize and Regulate Marijuana”
The Huffington post is watching the petition site and will follow up to see if the President keeps his word on this.
I was #8501. They make it a little lengthy to sign up and activate (which is a good deterrent for many people not to finish signing), but it isn’t really a big deal. We can all take a couple of minutes to do this and help a fellow Jew.
