[Peace-discuss] Not One Damn Dime Day

[Lisa Chason]

  JANUARY 20: INAUGURATION BOYCOTT - BUSH'S WAR

 

  If you can't be a part of what is hoped to be one of the biggest 

  protests ever held in WA DC, or organize your own protest march, here

  is something EVERYONE CAN DO!

 

  Not One Damn Dime Day - Jan 20, 2005 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, since Bush is  wasting 40 MILLION

  dollars on his inaugeration party...while the soldiers have inadequate

  armor and too few of them to create or maintain peace in Iraq...

 

   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 nothing for 24 hours. On "Not One Damn Dime Day," please
boycott 

  Wal-Mart, Kmart, Target... no online  shopping, either!

 

  Please don't go to the mall or the local  convenience store, gas
station

  or 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 1,200 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 email with as many people as possible. ------
