Mommy Patriots ... 40,000 in one week

Wow! Moms are frustrated, angry, and ready to take action as seen in the phenomenal growth of the Mommy Patriots website in just one week! After having their site revamped to handle the load, they updated everyone on what is happening:

A message to all members of As A Mom...

One week ago today we had 12 members. Today we have over 40,000. A big hand to the folks at Ning.com who are keeping us up and running as well as our technical team. We know we are having many technical issues. Please do not report issues with chats or slow searches. We know these are problems. Also please do not request new groups today. These reports fill up our inboxes and make it difficult for us to address other issues.

Please consult the “How to” sections on changing your settings, email preferences etc. If your password doesn’t work please contact NING.com. They collect the password and e-mail information. We cannot help you.

There are several sites that are trying to solicit our members. We Are NOT affiliated with asamom.NET or asaamom.COM or the myspace.com/asamom my-space page. If someone is asking you for money that is not us. We do not charge for membership nor are we seeking donations.

We also are not affiliated with the MOMforAmerica site and fundraising. However we do wholeheartedly support the idea of a rally (march). They have been careful to try to explain the difference in sites but till a few of you are confused, their site is only for the rally.

If you got my “Field of Dreams” analogy yesterday then I would like you to know that we are moving on, the surveyors are here we are marking off the field and setting up the teams and bases. The bandstands and concessions are being planned.

Speaking of concessions ... we do have plans for official t-shirts, bumper stickers, etc., as a way to fund this site and its activities. We are dealing with legal and accounting on these issues. We are aware that several of you are independently trying to work on these things. If you are trying to work on ideas for these please just hold on to them until we call for your help. Please respect the TradeMark on “As A Mom ... A Sisterhood of Mommy Patriots.” Please do not attempt to sell anything on this site.

Thank you
Lori Parker & the Mom Admin team

The last time I saw something grow this fast was last year when Team Sarah started as a handful of women (several of us in the Shenandoah Valley were part of the first dozen to join) and grew by leaps and bounds as women joined together to support a conservative leader.

Conservative women ... they are rising in leadership ranks.
