That site's actually wrong. I'm not sure what its purpose is (it does ask for money). If they think the amendment is defective, there's no point in this. It's impossible to get a new amendment past Congress at this point. This only works because this particular amendment is already past Congress, and can't be recalled.
We should ratify the amendment. Little more is needed.
If you wanted this, rather than donating to some sort of weird counter-operation, you'd go look up your state legislator (two of them, really, upper or lower house). Choose the one that seems most sympathetic, or maybe just choose both, and go talk to them. Dress nicely. Get a haircut before. Spend 5 minutes, and appeal to whatever their political sensibilities are. While still being friendly, make it clear that your continued support rests on their ability to get the state legislature to move towards ratifying it.
And if you know anyone else interested in things like this, convince them to do the same.
This is probably one of those cases where as few as 4 or 5 people could totally change the face of American politics, and relatively quickly (within the next 10 years or so).
