"Not One Damn Dime Day" - Jan 20, 2005 - Inauguration Day
Since our religious leaders will not speak out against the war in Iraq, since our political leaders don't have the moral courage to oppose it, Inauguration Day, Thursday, January 20th, 2005 is "Not One Damn Dime Day" in America.
On "Not One Damn Dime Day" those who oppose what is happening in our name in Iraq can speak up with a 24-hour national boycott of all forms of consumer spending. During "Not One Damn Dime Day" please don't spend money. Not one damn dime for gasoline. Not one damn dime for necessities or for impulse purchases. Not one damn dime for anything for 24 hours.
On "Not One Damn Dime Day," please boycott Wal-Mart, Kmart, Target . . .
Please don't go to the mall or the local convenience store. Please don't buy any fast food (or any groceries at all for that matter).
For 24 hours, please do what you can to shut the retail economy down. The object is simple. Remind the people in power that the war in Iraq is immoral and illegal; that they are responsible for starting it and that it is their responsibility to stop it.
"Not One Damn Dime Day" is to remind them, too, that they work for the people of the United States of America, not for the international corporations and K Street lobbyists who represent the corporations and funnel cash into American politics.
"Not One Damn Dime Day" is about supporting the troops. The politicians put the troops in harm's way.
Now that over 1,300 brave young Americans and (some estimate) 100,000 Iraqis have died, the politicians owe our troops a plan - a way to come home.
There's no rally to attend. No marching to do. No left or right wing agenda to rant about. On "Not One Damn Dime Day" you take action by doing nothing.
You open your mouth by keeping your wallet closed.
For 24 hours, nothing gets spent, not one damn dime, to remind our religious leaders and our politicians of their moral responsibility to end the war in Iraq and give America back to the people.
Please share this e-mail with as many people as possible.
given the proclivities of the Left, those "liabilities" should make the endeavor even more appealing to him.
I've got that video locked into my favorites!
EVEN IN HELL!
Same here
He became a billionaire by being an entrepreneur. I am surprised he would apparently be against people deciding how to spend their own money. I wonder how much he personally has donated to the tsunami relief effort?
My hubby is a gental sweet man by nature. He doesn't have a quick temper and it takes alot for me to actually tick him off.....but that all changes when he see's that "_itch face" (his words, not mine) on the television. His face gets all contorted and he goes off on a rampage.
In the early 90’s the ocean beckoned Robert, and he then began his career as a professional sea hag on various classic private and charter yachts in the Mediterranean, the South Pacific, in the Eastern Caribbean, and the coastal United States. Some of these included the 91’ wooden schooner, Tree of Life, the 75’ Sangermani sloop, Windrift, and the 110’ wooden fellow, Seljm. While whoring on Seljm, Robert sailed from Italy to New Zealand via the Panama Canal, and considered his lark across the South Pacific among his most memorable. Before coming to Sans Terre, Robert worked on the prestigious J-class yacht, the Homophile, taking part in the 1999 Classic Yacht Regatta. (As Robert says, "Not since the 1930’s had all 3 surviving J-class yacht crews been in the same tub.")
Robert has over 70,000 miles on his classic rear. He has earned both his 100 ton P.E.T.A. and H.O.M.O. Trouser Diver licenses. He has extensive knowledge of the Eastern Caribbean men, chartering from the Virgin Islands to Venezuela. In addition to SCUBA diving and sailing, Robert is an avid karaokeist, seeking out good swishy spots wherever he sails. Out-going, bright and adventurous, he enjoys sharing his enthusiasm for the local island culture, as well as his favorite spots to anchor, hike and sightsee.
Robert, sales are down, we are outsourcing your job, so sorry.
Thanks for the heads up - I am going to plan all my purchases - clothing, food, vehicle accessories - for that day.
THe Iraqi liberation is something I couldn't be more proud of .
Wait, didn't you post earlier here as Robert Winslow?
Anyway, bub-bye!

Hey, It just dawned on me that that is my birthday and of course, I will be spending some money!
Oh man. I *NEED* that picture! Is it yours?
I got a check for my birthday on the 2nd. And I really appreciate this information.
You see, I had planned on banking the money for a rainy day but now I'm going to make sure I blow it all on the 20th!
Well HAPPY BIRTHDAY MAMAB! Spend spend spend!!!!
Well, the only impact this will likely have is to cause the stock price of Starbucks to fall drastically.
