not one damn dime day, silent protest Options

[banddorko]

here's the deal: on january 20th (president bush's inauguration), there is going to be a nationwide silent protest against the war in iraq. to participate all you have to do is not spend any money at all on that day- that's it.

for more information, go here.

one of my friends told me about this and i thought it was very cool. if you support this please tell everyone you know and try to get them to participate. put a link in your profile. start a chain email. make a topic on another forum. tell your friends. i obviously am going to be participating (and wearing my homemade "impeach bush" t-shirt ). i hope some of you will participate too.


if you don't think this is a good idea or don't agree with it, please don't post it here. i really don't want this to be a debate, i just wanted to inform you guys of it. thanks.

I think it's pointless to do it. Really it kinda is. What happened in the election happened. No one can go back in time to change it. It was a close election between Kerry and Bush. But deal with it. The majority voted for Bush, NOT Kerry. So Bush won and got re-elected. Get over it and accept it. A protest wouldn't throw him out of his term in office. A protest wouldn't make more people hate him. Get over it. Bush won by majority of those who voted. If you didn't like the outcome of it, you should have gotten off your lazy ass and convince people to vote for Kerry. I know I'm being redundant, but it's for a reason. There's no point to try. Why would people actually not spend money in one day. There's gas, food, clothes, and plenty more. How could you not spend money in a day. Maybe someone can, I don't know. I'm just saying my opinion.

I still don't know why people are still opposing Bush now. He IS the president now. Accept it. Some can't, just like the senator in Ohio and the one in California and some others who brought up this discussion in the Senate House or whatever.

Maybe you think I'm stupid. But so what. I'm just stating my opinion.
If you think I am stupid, maybe it's beause you're listening to the rambling of a twelve year old.
