Build Upon a RUSH Idea - we MUST do this!
Rush and Moi | March 18, 2010 | ~AV~

Posted on 03/18/2010 10:31:52 AM PDT by antivenom

LOOK, I know this isn't technically BREAKING NEWS and I hope the moderators will see that being placed here, we can communicate and support this idea of urgency.

Rush just suggested that we, "God Fearing Freedom Loving Americans" should stimulate the economy by sending a FED EX and or UPS package to the "Fence Sitting Democrats" on Saturday.

WE SHOULD! However to get hundreds of TRUCKS to descend on DC Saturday we have to do the following.

Package the letter in a smallish BOX.

The box will weigh nothing however it will occupy space in the truck.

It will require more trucks to deliver small boxes than "flats" of letters/envelopes.

Package in the BOX a letter that states "VOTE NO!"

We can stimulate business for Private Mail, storm DC with Trucks, and GET OUR POINT ACROSS.

I hope that this idea, rains across America...

Free Republic and Rush can wake up America!

FYI, WARNING ! Fed Ex is NOT dependable and they do not always deliver.

once Fed Ex realizes that this is a political gesture, and there will be no grounds for a lawsuit regarding failure to deliver a critical business mail, they will just "dead letter" the mail to their local terminal in DC

it is a great idea though

How about faxing a cartoon showing Ted Kennedy, Murtha in hells flames shouting out “Don’t Pass It, Don’t Pass It”

How many times does this make today?

I find it petty to count them, you are free to do it for me.

Please have the summary ready for my review first thing tomorrow.

there is a clause in the fine print of the Fed Ex contract for this, they are not bound to deliver except in the case of critical business correspondence. I found out the hard way after paying $30 to send a birthday card overnite to my son , they never did deliver it and wanted him to go into their terminal to pick it up.It took me six calls and a lot of coercion to get them to finally deliver it. They repackaged it and sent it by US mail , he got it two weeks later and I never got a refund

Interesting site. Wonder how they calculate their percentages though. According to them, Gerald Ford directed 367% of his donations to the Republican Party, and Kathleen Sebelius directed 112% of her donations to the Democrat Party.
Gerald Ford 38th US President $3,750 0% 367% 0% 8-4
Kathleen Sebelius Kansas Governor 2003-present $6,275 112% 0% 0% 5-6

Rep. King of Iowa was calling for a million people to descend on D.C. at noon Saturday, on Glenn Becks show this morning!

Can someone fill me in on any details of this (or any) rally in DC this weekend? Hubby and I are considering making the trip to DC from Connecticut, but we want to be sure it's worth the trip and expense... does anyone know specifically what's going on?

We would have to leave CT early tomorrow. Thank you in advance... :o)

This is an excerpt of antivenom's post in #1:

Free Republic and Rush can wake up America!

I LOVE this idea, and thanks for this thread, antivenom!

FReepers: Sorry for yet another ping, but this idea is just TOO good to pass up, IMO. Do it... let's flood the Capitol with FedEx and UPS trucks this weekend!

CLICK HERE FOR MAILING ADDRESSES

Send it Priority Mail, if you can! And avoid using the US Post office. I'm not sure about the "box" idea, it may be better to send it via 2-day or overnight Priority Mail, so as to avoid it being sent away from the Capitol for scanning.

Heading out for several hours, so this is my last ping for awhile... ;-)

Do you have any advice re: Carbonite, LifeLock & Sleep number beds? I'm thinking of trying Carbonite... ;-)

Can't afford a Sleep Number Bed right now, and don't know much about LifeLock.

Wow! That is an eyeopener! I was very surprised to see that Charlie Daniels gave 100% to the Democrats and Eva Gabor gave 100% to the Republicans. I always thought Merle Haggard was a big lib but he gave 100% to the Republicans. I saw the moonbats in DU celebrating one day because they thought Toby Keith was a Democrat. He gave 100% to the Republicans. Neener neener. 2 more surprises, Mel Gibson is a lib contributor and James I Can’t Pronounce His Name but he played Jesus in Passion of the Christ, he is a Republican donor.
