When Whoopi Goldberg had her little problem with her comedy routine at a Democratic Party function, FReepers (as well as many other Americans) burned up the fax and fiber optic lines to SlimFast and Unilever--and contributed to the exit of Ms. Goldberg as their product spokesman.

Let's do the same to DICK! Click on the above link for the list of top contributors to DICK's 2002 re-election campaign. Then warm up those faxes and e-mails--and send them fast and furious!

Any additional info you want to share on these companies and individuals is fine, also. Let 'er rip!

If you live in Chicago there is absolutely no way to avoid a Wal Greens. They're on every corner.

This one --> Democratic Senatorial Campaign Cmte $16,500 and the lawyers will be the toughest nuts to break. But if his money dries up, that'd be a good thing....

I agree. We should forward stories of the torture people endured on 911 to his office by mail, fax, etc. Maybe a reminder of why we are fighting this war will at least shut him up. Like the saying "LEAD, FOLLOW, OR GET THE HELL OUT OF THE WAY!" Didn't he have to take an oath before taking his office? If so, I think he has violated that oath. Our soldiers deserve better than this!

[PBRSTREETGANG]

I'm contacting all of those law firms. They'll never get my business again!

[IN Farm Girl]

Agreed, but there have to be lots of Osco/Albertson's, too.

[Antoninus]

I'm a stock holder and former employee of one of those companies, so you can be they'll be hearing from me.

My kind of candidate.

Researching these law firms on Google was interesting. Most are international "full service" law firms.

Interesting to compare donations from those who donated to both Durbin and his opponent, James B. Durkin:

Mayer, Brown and Platt: Durbin, 23,850; Durkin, 19,550
Corboy & Demetrio: Durbin, 21,750, Durkin, 13,000
Clifford Law Offices: Durbin 20,500, Durkin, 9,250
State of Illinois: Durbin, 20,160; Durkin, 8,785
CBOT: Durbin, 22,800; Durkin, 7,200

[afraidfortherepublic]

My goodness -- Durbin and Durkin. I wonder if any voters confused the two when marking their ballots? Or, is it only in Florida that the voters can't tell the difference between Buchanan and Gore?

[Lee'sGhost]

OK! No to Dick!

Uh, who's Dick?

[Bigfitz]

Go too Mom and Pop places or a supermaket

[combat_boots]

Turn your backs to the man.
