ZOT! "Not One Damn Dime Day" - Jan 20, 2005 - Inauguration Day

Posted on 01/09/2005 5:37:49 PM PST by Robert Rummler

Help Make a Difference... Please mark your calendars now . . .

"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.

Ditto...as far as my "on line participation" (which is fairly limited), I get the most pleasure out of a good FreeRepublic ZOT! :-)

Okay, I see. That means you DUmmies don't turn on any lights, use water to bathe or shower (You do shower or take a bath once in a while, don't you?), drink coffee or hot chocolate, flush a toilet (I assume you use those too?).

All of the above mentioned cost money! Need I go on?

I Blog BooksI think the court needs some damsels.

I volunteer to sell dams, I'm really good at that!

Also, according to my loving spouse, if it involves lying on a chaise lounge eating slim yellow French novels, I'm good for it!

Beats me.

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?
