"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.
Howdy, PE,
See you're taking care of business, and say HI to the Viking Kitty for me. That is one nice move. Twist in the air and get hits one pawed with a MAC 9, envy city! Probably cover the whole burst with a coke can bottom, hey!!
We need to hireth a Royal Clerk to keepeth up with this.
I certainly will.
Ditto...as far as my "on line participation" (which is fairly limited), I get the most pleasure out of a good FreeRepublic ZOT! :-)
All of the above mentioned cost money! Need I go on?
ROTF....
One serious kitty!
Okay! I won't reply to you.
Appears today is not one damn DEM day......

bump for later laugh

stomp the probie in properly!
of course you know that "demure" is vastly more enticing than "bawdy"
this is just a quick pop-in before fuel and unconsciousness.
I trust your day went well.
I shall return in full fledge tomorrow (tuesday) eve.
dead-center, of course!
'nite!
oh, Scourge?
who was I supposed to shouldertap? I stopped by real transiently during lunch, didn't have time to reply, and now that post is well and truly buried in my pile of pings
A glimpse of stocking perhaps.
I'm still trying to figure out how a thread related to the execution of a girl in Iran devolved into an argument between "Bonaparte" and me over the relative merits of the Truman administration's postwar, Cold War foreign policy.
LOL!
Does that mean we were too good at finding trolls?
