Snark: to annoy or irritate

"Snark" has been in English language dictionaries since at least 1906, and Lewis Carroll used the word to describe a mythological animal in his poem, The Hunting of the Snark (1874). Most recently, the word has come to characterize snappish, sarcastic, or mean-spirited comments or actions directed at those who annoy or irritate us.

At first, this blog was just going be a place to gripe, but because it's more satisfying to take action than it is to merely complain, now most of the posts/reposts suggest ways to get involved in solving problems.

Pass the American Jobs Act Now

jobs
The jobs crisis is hurting Americans and holding back our country. 
Now is no time to play politics, it's time to create jobs and put Americans back to work! 
Tell Congress to PASS THE AMERICAN JOBS ACT NOW!
 
President Obama's American Jobs Act is a vital piece of legislation to put Americans back to work and get our economy moving. Republicans and Democrats alike have no business putting the politics of next year's election ahead of the dire needs of jobless Americans and their families, or for that matter, the need of ALL Americans to get our economy growing again. 
The American Jobs Act should be passed in its entirety. It's fair, it's effective and most importantly, it is urgently needed. 
Make sure you weigh in and tell YOUR members of Congress: Don't play politics with the economy; act swiftly to pass the American Jobs Act.
 
THANK YOU for stepping up and speaking out when America needs your activism the most. 
--Diallo Brooks, Director of Field Mobilization
